303-494-7110At Boulder Restorative Dentistry, we understand how vital a complete, functional smile is to your daily life. All-On-4® implant supported dentures offer a revolutionary solution for those looking to restore their smile with stability and confidence.
The All-On-4 Advantage
All-On-4 implant supported dentures are designed to provide a secure, natural-looking set of teeth using just four strategically placed dental implants. This innovative approach maximizes the use of available bone, often eliminating the need for bone grafting, which can save time and reduce discomfort.
The All-On-4 procedure involves placing four titanium implants into the jawbone. These implants act as sturdy anchors for a full arch of prosthetic teeth. The implants are positioned at specific angles to provide optimal support and stability, ensuring your new teeth remain securely in place.
Benefits of Choosing All-On-4
- Immediate Results: In most cases, patients receive their new set of teeth the same day as the implant surgery.
- Enhanced Comfort: The prosthetic teeth are custom-made to fit your mouth perfectly, providing a natural feel and look.
- Improved Oral Health: Implants help maintain jawbone density and prevent bone loss, promoting long-term oral health.
- Convenient Maintenance: Caring for All-On-4 dentures is straightforward, similar to maintaining natural teeth.

FAQ
How long does the All-on-4 procedure typically take?
The All-on-4 procedure usually takes a few hours to complete. However, the exact duration can vary based on individual needs and the complexity of the case. After the implants are placed, patients may receive a temporary set of dentures to wear while the implants heal.
What kind of aftercare is required following the All-on-4 procedure?
After the All-on-4 procedure, it is important to follow our aftercare instructions carefully. This may include avoiding hard or crunchy foods for a specified period, maintaining good oral hygiene and attending follow-up appointments to monitor healing.
Can I eat normally after receiving All-on-4 implants?
While many patients can return to a regular diet relatively quickly, it is recommended to start with softer foods and gradually introduce firmer items as comfort allows. It may take some time to adjust to chewing with the new dentures.
Are there any specific lifestyle changes I should consider after getting All-on-4 dentures?
Adjusting to All-on-4 dentures may require some lifestyle changes, such as being mindful of oral hygiene and avoiding certain foods that could damage the dentures. Regular dental visits for check-ups and maintenance are also crucial to ensure long-term success.
