Reclaim Your Smile with All-on-4® Implant Dentures
All-on-4® implants offer a minimally invasive way to replace missing teeth. This system of implant-supported dentures is designed to restore a full arch of teeth, improving your smile, oral health, and function. The All-on-4® treatment concept is one of the most effective options for full-arch restoration, using four carefully placed implants to support your new teeth. In many cases, your dentures can be attached to the implants the same day they are placed, allowing for a quicker return to a complete smile.
Our oral surgeon will examine your mouth and teeth to determine if this option is right for you. We will guide you through the entire implant placement process, making sure each implant is positioned to provide a secure, lasting solution that looks, feels, and works like your natural teeth.

Frequently Asked Questions — All-on-4® Dental Implants in Glendale, AZ
1. What exactly is the All-on-4® procedure, and how does it differ from traditional implants?
All-on-4® is a method of replacing a full arch of missing teeth using just four implants, strategically placed (often with two angled ones) to get maximum support. Unlike traditional full-arch treatments that may use 6–8 implants or require grafting, All-on-4 often avoids bone grafts and speeds up healing.
2. Am I a candidate for All-on-4 in the Phoenix / Glendale area?
Many patients who are missing most or all teeth are eligible. Having healthy gums, good overall health, and enough bone is ideal. Even if you’ve been told you lack bone, the angled placement in All-on-4 can sometimes reduce or eliminate the need for grafting.
3. What can I expect during recovery and the first few days after surgery?
You’ll likely experience swelling and mild discomfort, which is normal. You’ll be on a soft or blended foods diet initially. Over a few weeks, your tissues will heal and you’ll gradually reintroduce firmer foods. Follow all post-op instructions carefully and keep your follow-up appointments.
4. How long do All-on-4 implants last, and what affects their success?
With good care, the implants themselves can last a lifetime; the prosthetic teeth may need replacement or adjustment over time. Success is influenced by oral hygiene, regular checkups, avoiding tobacco, and maintaining good gum health.
5. How much does All-on-4 cost in the Valley, and does insurance or financing help?
Cost depends on complexity, materials, and the need for additional procedures (like extractions or grafting). Many practices offer financing or payment plans and will work with dental insurance. During your consultation at Arizona Center for Oral Surgery, we’ll review a detailed estimate and coverage options for your case.
