Dental implants are stronger than any healthy tooth. That means they can handle more pressure and support larger designs of restorations. And when our Sacramento, CA implant dentist places them at strategic points in your mouth, we can use as few as four in total to anchor a full-arch hybrid appliance. We call this extended bridge or denture an “All-on-4” appliance.

What Do All on 4® Dental Implants Look Like?

Instead of wearing a full denture that rests against your gums or snaps over dental implants, an All-on-4® looks more like a curved, “U”-shaped restoration that follows the natural contour of your smile. There’s no bulky plate to cover the roof of your mouth.

The All-on-4® is designed for maximum aesthetics. You can specify what color, shape, and size you want your new teeth to look like. Along the teeth is pink porcelain or acrylic that’s shaded and shaped to mimic healthy gum tissues. That way, when you smile, you’ll be able to show off a set of straight, white teeth.
