About All-on-4 Implants at Recreate Smiles, Joondalup
If you are living with extensive tooth loss, severely damaged teeth, or loose ill-fitting dentures, All-on-4 implants offer a life-changing solution that can restore your full smile in a single surgical procedure. At Recreate Smiles in Joondalup, our implant-trained dentists have the expertise and technology to deliver All-on-4 outcomes that genuinely transform the way you live.
The All-on-4 technique uses just four strategically placed dental implants to support a full arch of fixed, non-removable teeth. Two implants are positioned vertically at the front of the jaw, and two are angled at the rear to maximise contact with available bone. This angled placement is what makes All-on-4 so effective, as it often eliminates the need for bone grafting even in patients who have experienced significant bone loss.
At Recreate Smiles, every All-on-4 case begins with detailed 3D imaging and a thorough clinical assessment. Dr Brijesh Mandli and the team plan each implant placement digitally before any surgery takes place, ensuring precision from the very first step. We use only TGA-approved implant systems with proven long-term clinical track records.
In many cases, patients receive a provisional set of fixed teeth on the same day as their surgery, so they leave our Joondalup clinic with a functional smile. The final, permanent teeth are fitted once the implants have fully integrated with the jawbone, typically over a period of three to six months.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between All-on-4 implants and traditional dentures?
Traditional dentures sit on the gums and rely on suction or adhesive to stay in place. They can shift when eating or speaking and do not prevent the jawbone from deteriorating over time. All-on-4 implants are fixed permanently to the jaw, function like natural teeth, stimulate the bone to prevent further loss, and require no removal for cleaning.
How many teeth will I receive with All-on-4?
A full All-on-4 arch typically supports a prosthesis of ten to fourteen teeth, providing a complete and natural-looking smile. The exact number is determined during your planning consultation based on your jaw size and clinical requirements.
Is All-on-4 suitable for people who have already lost significant bone?
One of the greatest advantages of the All-on-4 design is that the angled rear implants allow them to be placed in denser areas of bone that are typically less affected by bone loss. Many patients who have been told they are not suitable for conventional implants are still eligible for All-on-4. A 3D scan at our clinic will confirm your suitability.
Can I eat normally with All-on-4 implants?
Yes, though we recommend starting with softer foods during the healing period. Once your permanent teeth are fitted and fully integrated, the vast majority of patients report being able to eat a wide range of foods comfortably, including many they had avoided for years due to missing or damaged teeth.
How do I care for All-on-4 implants?
All-on-4 implants require daily cleaning similar to natural teeth, including brushing and the use of a water flosser or interdental brush to clean under the arch. You will also need regular professional hygiene appointments at our Joondalup clinic. With consistent care, All-on-4 implants are designed to last many decades.
