How it works

This procedure involves the extraction of any remaining teeth, the placement of 4-6 implants per arch, and the attachment of a low-profile bridge to those implants. The implants are strategically positioned to avoid the patient's sinuses, eliminating the need for expensive bone grafts and long healing periods.
Our doctor has improved the traditional All-On-4 procedure by customizing it based on their expertise and understanding, resulting in a more favorable outcome for the patient. At Wicker Park Dental Group, we carefully assess each case and tailor our treatment to the individual patient's anatomy. Your doctor will implant between four and six implants per arch, and temporary fixed bridges will be installed while your implants integrate with your jawbones and your mouth heals.
Once the healing process is complete, the doctor and lab technician will design your final teeth using zirconia, a material that is significantly stronger than the acrylic denture teeth offered at other dental practices. Zirconia also provides a more natural and lifelike appearance, is more hygienic, and is resistant to staining. As a result, these teeth will have a longer lifespan and a superior aesthetic compared to the acrylic/titanium hybrid bridges commonly found elsewhere.

    Am I a candidate?

    Most patients, even those who have been told they don't have enough bone for dental implants, can have this procedure. To avoid the sinuses and use the strongest bone, your doctor will use a mix of straight and angled implants. This technique usually eliminates the need for expensive and time-consuming sinus augmentation bone grafts. During your free consultation, your doctor will assess if All-On-4, also called "Teeth in a Day," is right for you.

      All-On-4 procedure timeline

      The process takes 4-6 hours based on whether one arch or both arches are treated (upper or lower) (full mouth). After leaving, your temporary bridge(s) will be securely attached to new implants. Temporary bridge(s) worn for 4 months to allow integration with bone and healing of jaws and gums. Healing time ensures closest fit for final bridges. After healing, final bridge(s) fabrication begins. Appointments over 5-6 weeks to design desired smile for permanent teeth.

      Mouth impressions

      The lab utilizes these materials to create your temporary implant bridge(s). In case you are missing a significant number of teeth in the arch that will be treated, the doctor might recommend a wax try-in. This involves creating a model of your temporary implant bridge using wax, which will be used to assess bite position, aesthetics, and other factors.

      Procedure

      Extract teeth (if needed), insert implants, place interim implant bridge(s). The process usually lasts 4-7 hours.

      Post Op #1

      After the procedure, please check the healing progress and feel free to ask any questions you may have.

      Post Op #2

      At the appointment 3 weeks after the procedure, the sutures will be removed and the healing will be checked. Typically, the patient will be cleared to start using a water flosser or WaterPik at this time.

      Impressions for final teeth

      After 4 months of the procedure

      Try in

      Within 5-10 days of taking impressions, we will provide you with a mock-up of your final teeth. In certain cases, multiple wax try-ins may be required. It is crucial for us to ensure your satisfaction with the wax try-ins before proceeding with the final fabrication. Once the try-ins are processed, any modifications become unfeasible. Therefore, if you decide to make changes to your bridge(s) after approving and fabricating them, a full-cost remake charge will be applicable.

      Seat final teeth

      Once you give your approval for the wax try-in(s), it usually takes around 4-6 weeks for your bridge or bridges to be prepared for seating.
