Fixed Full-Arch Dental Implants (All-on-4)

Shelby Township, MI

If you’ve lost most or all of your teeth, you don’t have to live with removable dentures. All-on-4® and All-on-X full-arch implant solutions,  give you a permanent, beautiful new smile — supported by just four to six strategically placed implants.

At The Gentle Dentist, we specialize in life-changing smile restorations. Our team brings precision, compassion, and Christ-centered care to every step of your implant journey.

What Is All-on-4?

The All-on-4® technique uses four (sometimes six) dental implants to support a full arch of non-removable teeth. These implants are placed at precise angles to maximize support — even for patients with reduced bone volume.

This solution allows you to walk out the same day with a secure, functional smile, often without the need for bone grafting.

Benefits of All-on-4 Implants

  • Restores your entire upper or lower arch
  • Fixed — no slipping, no adhesives
  • Looks and feels like natural teeth
  • Immediate function in many cases (“Teeth in a Day”)
  • Preserves jawbone and facial structure
  • Long-term stability with minimal maintenance

Watch How It Works

Learn how the All-on-4 process works and why it’s changing lives.

Each implant has three parts:

  • The implant (titanium root)

  • The abutment (connector)

  • The crown (visible tooth replacement)

Why Choose All-on-4 Over Dentures?

Traditional dentures can be loose, uncomfortable, and limit your ability to eat, speak, and enjoy life. All-on-4 eliminates those issues by giving you teeth that are:

  • Screwed into place — they stay put
  • Palate-free — no upper plate covering your mouth
  • Fully customized — designed to complement your smile and face
  • Easy to clean — maintained like natural teeth

Common Questions About All-on-4

  • Is All-on-4 really done in one day?
    Yes — in most cases we place a temporary fixed bridge on the same day as your implant surgery.
  • Will I ever be without teeth?
    No. You will leave your surgery with a fixed provisional bridge attached to your implants.
  • Can I eat normally?
    Yes, after a soft food period. Once healed, you’ll enjoy full function — even steak and corn on the cob!
  • How long do All-on-4 implants last?
    With good hygiene and routine care, they can last 15–25 years or longer.
