How much do All-On-4® implants cost?
All-On-4® dental implants are one of the best investments you can make in your health, confidence, and quality of life. At ViaSmiles, full-arch implants start at just $14,995 per arch, thousands less than most providers in the area.
Here’s what makes that price even more compelling: unlike traditional dentures and removable overdentures, which wear down, slip, and need replacing every 5 to 7 years, a fixed implant bridge is designed to last a lifetime with proper care. No more adhesives and no more awkward moments at dinner.
When you factor in the long-term savings, the improved ability to eat and speak naturally, and the confidence that comes with a permanent, natural-looking smile, All-On-4® implants aren’t just affordable. They’re the smarter choice.
We offer flexible financing and payment plan options, including CareCredit, to make treatment accessible. If you’re wondering whether insurance or Medicare covers any portion of the cost, we can help you figure that out too. Schedule a consultation and we’ll walk you through a detailed estimate of exactly what your investment looks like.
How do I know if I'm a candidate for dental implants?
Most adults are good candidates. If you’re missing multiple teeth, dealing with removable dentures that don’t fit right, or tired of hiding your smile, there’s a strong chance implants are the right move for you.
The only way to know for sure is a proper evaluation. During your consultation, we’ll take a full scan of your jaw, review your health history, and give you a straight answer on whether All-On-4® or All-On-X implants will work for your situation.
Are dental implant procedures painful?
Honestly, most patients are surprised by how little discomfort they feel. In fact, many of our patients tell us the anticipation was worse than the actual experience.
After the procedure, some soreness, swelling, and bruising is normal for a few days. Most people manage it fine with over-the-counter pain medication and are back to work within a day or two. We send you home with clear aftercare instructions so you know exactly what to expect during your recovery timeline and when to call us if something doesn’t feel right.
If anxiety about pain has been holding you back, you’re not alone. That’s one of the most common concerns we hear, and it’s one of the easiest to put to rest once you understand how the healing process actually works.
How long does the All-On-4® procedure take?
Believe it or not, full-arch implant procedures used to take up to a year. Sometimes even longer. Multiple surgeries, long healing windows, temporary teeth that never felt right. That’s not how we do things.
At ViaSmiles, we use advanced equipment and streamlined workflows that let us place your implants and attach a full set of fixed teeth in a single visit. You walk in with missing or failing teeth and walk out the same day with a brand new smile. Most patients are back to eating soft foods within days, and recovery time is shorter than people expect.
After a 3 to 4 month healing phase, most patients are ready for their final teeth. This is where we fine-tune everything: the size, the shape, the shade, the contour, every detail of your smile until it looks exactly like you want it to. You may have seen some offices advertising “next-day final teeth,” and we understand the appeal. The reason we use a multi phase approach (temporary teeth at the start, then final teeth at the end) instead is that your gums and bone are actively remodeling for months after surgery. Locking into a permanent bridge before that process settles means gaps, food getting stuck under the bridge, bite issues, and costly fixes down the road. The provisional period lets us test and adjust everything, your bite, speech, and tooth position, so your final zirconia bridge is right the first time.
Start to finish, the full process typically takes about 4 to 7 months from your initial surgery to your final set of teeth.
The goal isn’t just a fast result. It’s a result you’re proud of every time you look in the mirror.
How do I care for my All-On-4® implants?
Caring for your implants is straightforward, but there are a few differences from natural teeth worth knowing about.
The single most important tool in your daily routine is a water flosser (Waterpik is a well-known brand). A water flosser is the best way to flush food debris, bacteria, and buildup from beneath your bridge and around your implants. These are areas a regular toothbrush simply can’t reach, and keeping them clean is essential to the long-term health of your implants. We recommend using your water flosser at least once a day, though twice or more is even better.
Beyond that, brush twice a day with a soft-bristled electric toothbrush and non-abrasive toothpaste. An electric toothbrush does a better job disrupting plaque along the gumline than a manual brush. Interdental brushes and floss threaders are also helpful for getting into tighter spaces around the implant abutments where buildup tends to collect. Finish your routine with a non-alcoholic antibacterial mouthwash to help control bacteria in the areas you can’t physically reach with a brush or flosser.
Regular professional cleanings are also important for long-term maintenance. Your doctor will advise on the best schedule for your unique case.
One of the biggest advantages of All-On-4® over removable dentures and overdentures is that there’s no nightly soaking, no adhesive, and no special cleaning solutions. Your daily routine is brush, water flosser, mouthwash, and you’re done.
After your procedure, we’ll give you a detailed home care plan specific to your situation so you know exactly how to protect your investment for years to come.
Are dental implants safe?
Dental implants have been used successfully for decades, and the procedure is one of the most well-documented in modern dentistry. At ViaSmiles, we use high-quality materials and advanced imaging technology to plan every case with precision before surgery even begins. That level of planning is what drives our high long-term success rates.
If safety has been a concern holding you back, we’re happy to walk you through exactly how we minimize risk during your consultation.
How long will my implants last?
With proper care, your All-On-4® implants can last the rest of your life. The implants that anchor into your jawbone are designed for long-term stability, and a well-made zirconia bridge is exceptionally durable.
The key to that kind of longevity is consistent oral hygiene at home and regular professional cleanings. Brushing and using a water flosser every day, and staying on top of the cleaning schedule your doctor recommends will keep everything in great shape.
Compare that to traditional removable dentures, which typically need replacing every 5 to 7 years, and the long-term value of implants becomes pretty clear. You’re not just paying for teeth. You’re paying for a permanent solution.
What if I already have dentures?
Switching from removable dentures to fixed All-On-4® implants is one of the most common and life-changing upgrades we do at ViaSmiles. If you’re tired of dentures that slip, click when you talk, require adhesive, or limit what you can eat, implants solve all of those problems.
A fixed implant bridge stays locked in place. You chew with real biting force, speak without worrying about movement, and never take your teeth out at the end of the night. Patients who make the switch consistently tell us they wish they’d done it sooner.
Even if you’ve experienced bone loss from years of wearing dentures, you may still be a candidate. During your consultation, we’ll evaluate your bone condition and walk you through what the transition looks like.
Why All-On-4® Teeth in a Day dental implants?
Most people who come to us have been struggling for years. Mouths full of decay, failing dental work, broken teeth, and the embarrassment that comes with all of it. All-On-4® Teeth in a Day exists to fix all of that in a single visit.
During one procedure, we remove any remaining failing teeth, place your implants, and attach a full set of fixed, functional teeth before you leave the office. No months of waiting with gaps in your smile. No temporary removable dentures while you heal. You walk out the same day with a completely new smile.
Beyond the physical transformation, what we see over and over is the emotional one. Patients who hadn’t smiled in years, who avoided restaurants, who covered their mouth every time they laughed. This procedure gives people their confidence back, and that change in self-esteem ripples into every part of their daily life.
Am I a candidate for dental implants?
Most patients are, even many who have been told they don’t have enough bone for implants. That’s one of the biggest advantages of the All-On-4® technique.
Your doctor uses a combination of straight and angled implants to engage the strongest areas of your jaw while avoiding the sinuses. This approach usually eliminates the need for expensive and time-consuming sinus augmentation or bone grafting procedures, which means fewer surgeries, faster recovery, and lower cost.
Conditions like bone loss, periodontal disease, diabetes, or smoking don’t automatically disqualify you either. During your consultation, your doctor will perform a thorough evaluation, including a full scan of your jaw, to determine whether All-On-4® Teeth in a Day is the right option for your situation.
Will I be able to eat with my new teeth from day one?
Yes. Your implants and teeth are placed securely on the same day, so you leave the office with a fully functional smile. That said, we do ask you to stick to a soft diet during the healing period while your implants integrate with the bone.
A good rule of thumb: if you can cut it with a plastic fork, you’re fine to eat it. Think scrambled eggs, pasta, fish, cooked vegetables, and similar foods. Once your implants are fully healed and your final bridge is placed, you can eat just about anything, including steak, nuts, apples, and all the foods denture wearers have to avoid.
The reason we’re careful during healing is simple. You’re investing in something that could last the rest of your life, and giving your implants the best chance to fuse properly with the bone sets you up for the strongest long-term outcome.
What will my final teeth be made of?
Your final teeth will be made of zirconia, which is among the strongest, most durable dental materials available.
A lot of offices still use outdated acrylic denture teeth bonded to a titanium bar. Those hybrid bridges stain over time, wear down faster, and typically need replacing every 5 to 10 years. Zirconia doesn’t have those problems. It’s more durable, more resistant to chipping, and extremely resistant to staining and discoloration.
One more thing worth knowing if you’re comparing clinics: ask what your quoted price actually covers. Many offices advertise a lower fee for surgery and temporary teeth, then charge an additional $8,000 to $20,000 for the final teeth. We give you a complete estimate upfront so there are no surprises.
Can I be put to sleep for my procedure?
Yes. We offer sedation options for patients who are nervous about their procedure. Whether you’re dealing with dental anxiety, a strong gag reflex, or just prefer not to be aware during surgery, sedation can make the entire experience more comfortable.
During your consultation, your doctor will review your health history to determine which sedation option is the best fit for you. Many patients who were nervous or even terrified about the procedure say that knowing sedation was available is what gave them the confidence to finally move forward.
