All-on-4 Dental Implants: A Life-Changing Smile Solution in Irvine, Las Vegas & Pasadena

Missing teeth can impact your life in more ways than one. From your ability to enjoy your favorite meals to the confidence you feel in social settings, tooth loss can take a toll. Fortunately, a groundbreaking solution known as All-on-4 Dental Implants can completely restore your smile and your quality of life—permanently.

At Lasting Smiles, we specialize in advanced implant dentistry and offer All-on-4 services at our state-of-the-art offices in Irvine, CA, Las Vegas, NV, and Pasadena, CA. This comprehensive guide will walk you through everything you need to know about All-on-4 implants—from how they work and who they’re for, to the benefits, costs, comparisons, and how to get started.

What Are All-on-4 Dental Implants?

All-on-4 dental implants are a revolutionary approach to full-arch tooth replacement. Instead of replacing each missing tooth with an individual implant, All-on-4 uses four strategically placed implants to support an entire arch of new teeth—either upper, lower, or both.

The procedure involves placing two implants vertically in the front of the jaw and two at an angle in the back, allowing maximum contact with the jawbone even in cases of bone loss. This technique eliminates the need for bone grafting in many patients, making it an efficient, predictable solution.

Ideal Candidates for All-on-4:

• Patients with several missing or decayed teeth
• Those frustrated with traditional dentures
• Individuals experiencing bone loss
• Patients seeking a permanent, fixed solution
• Anyone looking for a “Teeth in a Day” transformation

The Step-by-Step Process of All-on-4 Implants

1. Initial Consultation

Your journey starts with a thorough consultation at one of our conveniently located offices in Irvine, Las Vegas, or Pasadena. We perform a full oral exam, 3D imaging, and digital scans to determine the ideal treatment plan.

2. Treatment Planning

We use advanced dental software to virtually plan the placement of your implants with high precision. Our implant specialists will customize your prosthetic arch to match your facial aesthetics, bite, and speech needs.

3. Implant Placement & Temporary Teeth

On the day of surgery, we extract any remaining teeth (if necessary), place the four implants, and attach a set of temporary fixed teeth. You’ll leave the same day with a full, functional smile.

4. Healing & Osseointegration

Over the next 3–6 months, your jawbone fuses with the titanium implants, creating a strong and permanent foundation.

5. Final Restoration

Once healing is complete, we replace the temporary teeth with your final custom-made prosthetic. These look, feel, and function like real teeth.

Benefits of All-on-4 Dental Implants

• Immediate Results: Walk out with a full smile the same day.
• Permanently Fixed: Unlike dentures, All-on-4 implants are non-removable and securely anchored.
• Improved Chewing Ability: Eat all your favorite foods again—steak, nuts, apples, and more.
• No Bone Grafting: The angled implant placement often eliminates the need for additional procedures.
• Boosted Confidence: Enjoy natural aesthetics that enhance your smile and facial structure.
• Low Maintenance: No need for adhesives or soaking solutions—just brush and floss like normal.

Comparing All-on-4 with Other Options

There are several ways to replace missing teeth, but not all options are created equal. Here’s how All-on-4 compares to Snap-On Dentures and Traditional Dentures:

Post-Procedure Care & Recovery

One of the best parts of All-on-4 is the minimal downtime. Here’s what to expect after your procedure:

• Day 1–3: Rest is key. Minor swelling and soreness are normal. Cold compresses help.
• Week 1: Stick to soft foods like yogurt, eggs, and mashed potatoes. Avoid crunchy or hot foods.
• Month 1: Gradually return to more textured foods as healing progresses.
• Months 3–6: The bone fuses with the implants (osseointegration). Once complete, you’ll receive your final prosthetic teeth.

Our team provides a detailed aftercare guide and is available to answer any questions throughout your healing process.

Advanced Technology That Powers Your Smile

We’re not just restoring teeth — we’re rebuilding lives with the most advanced dental technology available, including:

• 3D CBCT Scans for detailed imaging and precise implant placement
• Digital Smile Design to simulate your new smile before surgery
• In-House Dental Lab for fast fabrication of temporary and final teeth
• Guided Implant Surgery for optimal positioning and outcomes

This high-tech, high-touch approach is part of what makes Lasting Smiles a top choice for All-on-4 Dental Implants.

Are All-on-4 Implants Right for You?

During your consultation, we’ll assess your oral health, bone density, and medical history. Even if you’ve been told you’re not a candidate for traditional implants, you may still qualify for All-on-4.

Our team is here to guide you through every step—whether you’re just starting your research or ready to take action.

What Do All-on-4 Dental Implants Cost?

The cost of All-on-4 dental implants can vary depending on several factors, including:

• Whether both arches or just one is treated
• Sedation and anesthesia needs
• Temporary vs. final prosthetics
• Materials used for the final restoration

While All-on-4 is a significant investment, it’s important to consider its long-term value—both financially and emotionally. With fewer future replacements, better health outcomes, and improved confidence, most patients find the results are well worth it.
