Understanding All-On-4 Implants
All-On-4 dental implants offer a full-arch replacement using just four carefully positioned implants to secure a fixed set of teeth. This approach makes the most of your existing bone and can even provide same-day temporary teeth (depending on the individual conditions) for improved comfort and confidence.
Your treatment starts with a detailed consultation, 3D scan, and tailored planning to map out implant placement and tooth design. The implants are placed under local anaesthetic, and temporary teeth may be fitted. Once healing is complete, your final bridge is attached and we continue to review your progress for lasting results.
The Right Candidate
You might be a suitable candidate for All-On-4 dental implants in Polegate, East Sussex, if any of the following apply:
- Multiple missing teeth: If you have lost most or all teeth in one or both arches, All-On-4 dental implants provide a stable, fixed full-arch replacement solution.
- Loose or uncomfortable dentures: If traditional dentures feel unstable or limit your ability to eat or speak, All-On-4 implants offer improved comfort and functionality.
- Reduced bone density: Patients with moderate bone loss can often avoid bone grafting, as the angled implant placement maximises existing bone support effectively.
- Good general and oral health: Candidates should have healthy gums, good oral hygiene, and no uncontrolled medical conditions that may affect healing or implant success.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Take a look at the answers to some of the most frequently asked questions about this treatment.
Is the All-On-4 dental implant procedure uncomfortable?
The All-On-4 procedure is performed under local anaesthetic, reducing discomfort throughout the procedure. After treatment, patients may experience mild swelling or tenderness, which typically subsides within a few days and can be managed easily with prescribed or over-the-counter pain relief.
How long does All-On-4 dental implant treatment take?
From consultation to final bridge is often several months; provisional teeth can be fitted on the day of surgery for immediate function and aesthetics, depending on grafting needs and individual healing rates.
Can All-On-4 implants be done on the same day as extractions?
Yes, in many cases, All-On-4 implants can be placed immediately after extractions. This approach allows for a fixed temporary bridge the same day, restoring appearance and function while the implants integrate securely with the jawbone.
