All-on-4 Full-Arch Dental Implants in Round Rock & Austin TX
The Most Permanent, Best-Looking Option for Full-Mouth Restoration
At Optima Dental Surgery, we can replace missing teeth with dental implants and fixed bridges. An extraordinary procedure has been developed that permits the placement of 4 dental implants and a fixed bridge in as little as one appointment. In its most extraordinary application, an entire mouthful of teeth may be replaced with implants and a non-removable set of new teeth in as little as one day. In most cases, there is no bone grafting and no sinus grafting or lift.
What Are All-on-4 Dental Implants?
All-on-4 dental implants (also called all-on-four dental implants or 4 in 1 implants) replace an entire arch of missing or failing teeth using just four strategically placed titanium implants. The term “All-on-4” refers to the complete arch of replacement teeth resting on four implant posts.
You walk into our Round Rock office with missing or failing teeth and leave the same day with a full, functional smile. No months of waiting between procedures. No multiple surgeries. No temporary period without teeth.
The procedure uses your existing bone density efficiently by angling the back two implants at 30-45 degrees to avoid areas requiring bone grafting. This strategic placement reduces all on four dental implants cost, healing time, and surgical complexity compared to traditional implant methods that might require 6-8 implants per arch.

How Much Do All-on-4 Dental Implants Cost?
When patients search “all on four dental implants cost” or “all on four dental implants price” they’re really asking “Can I afford this?”, The honest answer is: it depends on your specific situation.
All on four dental implants cost varies based on whether you need extractions, your bone condition, and which final restoration you choose (acrylic vs. porcelain). At Optima, we provide detailed pricing during your free consultation because you deserve to make informed financial decisions.
The all on four dental implants price at our Round Rock practice is generally half the cost of traditional full-arch implants. We work with multiple financing companies including CareCredit and LendingClub to offer payment plans for qualified patients. Financing terms and approval depend on credit and other factors.
Who Is a Good Candidate for All-on-4?
You may be a candidate if you:
- Have multiple missing teeth or complete tooth loss in one or both arches
- Want to avoid dentures or replace failing dentures with permanent teeth
- Have adequate bone density in the front part of your jaw
- Are tired of temporary solutions and want immediate, functional results
- Can commit to the healing process and follow post-surgery instructions
Approximately 80% of patients told they’re not candidates for traditional implants can still receive All-on-4. The procedure uses the front portion of your jaw where bone is typically denser, avoiding the need for extensive grafting in most cases.
During your consultation, we’ll evaluate your complete oral health and discuss whether All-on-4 is right for your situation or if Stabili-Teeth™ might be a better option.
Frequently Asked Questions About 4 in One teeth implants
What is all on four dental implants recovery like?
Initial recovery involves managing discomfort and swelling for the first week. Most patients return to work within a few days. You’ll eat soft foods during healing, gradually progressing to regular foods once your final teeth are placed. Pain is typically manageable with prescribed medication.
How long do All-on-4 implants last?
With proper care and regular maintenance, All-on-4 implants can last many years. The implants themselves, once fully integrated, are very durable. Your prosthetic teeth may eventually need replacement due to normal wear, but the implants typically remain stable. Success depends on maintaining good oral hygiene and attending regular check-ups.
Can I eat normally with All-on-4?
During healing with provisional teeth, stick to softer foods. Once your final teeth are placed after healing is complete, you can eat most foods – including apples and steak. We recommend avoiding very hard foods that could damage any dental restoration. Most patients report eating feels more natural than with dentures.
Is the procedure painful?
The surgery is performed under anesthesia, so you won’t feel pain during the procedure. Afterward, patients experience discomfort that can be managed with prescribed medication. The use of only four implants often results in less post-surgical discomfort compared to more extensive implant placements.
Do I need bone grafting for All-on-4?
In most cases, no. The angled placement technique allows us to use existing bone in the front of your jaw where density is typically better. However, individual needs vary. We’ll assess your bone structure during consultation and discuss whether any preliminary procedures are needed.
What’s the difference between All-on-4 and Stabili-Teeth™?
All-on-4 uses four conventional-sized implants per arch. Stabili-Teeth™ uses 6-8 implants per arch, combining narrow diameter and conventional implants based on your bone density. Stabili-Teeth® is generally more affordable than All-on-4. Both provide same-day provisional teeth. The best choice depends on your bone structure, budget, and preferences.
How do I clean All-on-4 dental implants?
Cleaning all on four dental implants is simpler than you might expect. Brush your prosthetic teeth twice daily just like natural teeth. Use a water flosser to clean around the implants and underneath the bridge where food can collect. Regular dental check-ups every six months allow us to professionally clean areas you can’t reach at home. Avoid abrasive toothpastes that could scratch the prosthetic material. Good oral hygiene keeps your implants healthy and extends their lifespan significantly.
