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.
