What Do All on 4 Dental Implants Cost?The Best of Both Worlds: All-on-4 Dental Implants Cost and Procedure

All-on-4s give you the look and feel of natural teeth with the stability of fixed implants.

Ordinary dentures sit on top of your gums without stimulating bone growth underneath. When they slip, they create sores and cause discomfort. All-on-4 implants are securely fixed and they can last a lifetime. You might not have considered them in the past because of their cost, but you may be surprised what All-on-4 dental implants cost.

The “sunken look” that happens with dentures is due to the loss of bone density in the jaw. When dental implants are put into place to anchor your All-on-4s, the jawbone grows new bone around the implant through a process called osseointegration.

Osseointegration not only keeps your implants secure, but it also fills out the part of the jaw that would have “sunken” without the support of the bone. All-on-4s combine the security and health benefits of dental implants with the cost effectiveness of dentures.

The All-on-4 procedure

All-on-4 Dental Implants require four implants to secure the bottom arch and four implants for the top arch.

All-on-4s are a versatile solution if you have many damaged or missing teeth. They can be placed just on the top arch of the mouth, just on the bottom, or on both. Four single implants are placed on each arch, and the denture is secured to the four implants.

Osseointegration takes a few weeks to form around the implant, but you won’t be without teeth during the waiting period. A temporary set of dentures will be made for you to wear until the implants are fully integrated. When the dental implants are secure, your permanent dentures are ready to be placed.

What do All-on-4 Dental Implants cost?

The Dental Implant Cost Guide suggests, on average, All-on-4 dental implants cost $34,000 for the entire procedure.

But you should talk to your prosthodontist before you make any decision. In this case, one size doesn’t fit all. Prices vary considerably depending on what materials are used, what additional procedures are required, and what city you live in. Don’t rule something out that might just be the right answer for you.

While we understand this is a considerable cost, 94 percent of those who choose All-on-4 implants report they are highly satisfied with the outcome. You’re making a long-term investment in your oral health, and the money you save by possibly never needing another dental procedure may make All-on-4s cheaper in the long run.

The advantage of All-on-4s

Here are a few of the advantages All-on-4s have over dentures:
