How Does All-on-4 Work?
All-on-4® replaces an entire arch of missing or failing teeth with a secure bridge supported by four strategically placed implants. The system is designed to restore chewing power, smile appearance and confidence in a streamlined way. After a careful exam, our dentists will create a digital plan that maps bone, gum health and bite. The approach reduces the need for extensive grafting in many cases by angling back implants for stability. Dr. Babak Joobbani and Dr. Jennifer Joobbani guide each step with clear explanations and steady attention. The goal is a stable, natural-looking result that feels comfortable and supports everyday function each day.
Our dentists provide All-on-4® implants in Columbia, Maryland. Candidates often include people with widespread decay, multiple missing teeth or loose dentures that limit daily life. We begin with a detailed consultation to understand your goals, medical history and timeline. Digital scans help us tailor fit, appearance and bite balance. If temporary teeth are appropriate, you leave with a confident smile while healing. We coordinate closely with you to keep steps simple and predictable. From first visit to final bridge, communication stays clear so you know what happens next and how to care for your new smile every single day forward.
The All-on-4 Treatment Process
Treatment begins with records that include photos, scans and a bite analysis. Using this information, our dentists plan precise implant positions to support a full-arch bridge. Four implants anchor the restoration with two placed at an angle for added stability when bone is limited. On the day of surgery, implants are positioned through small openings with careful technique. A provisional bridge is secured when appropriate, allowing you to speak and smile while tissues heal. Follow-up checks confirm comfort and progress while we prepare the final bridge that delivers refined fit, durable materials and a natural appearance for long-term confidence daily.
Your role is important to success. You will follow cleaning instructions, maintain scheduled visits and follow a soft diet as advised during early healing. Our dentists review medications and health conditions to support safe care. If adjustments are needed, we make them promptly to protect comfort and function. When tissues mature, precise impressions guide fabrication of the final bridge. The result aims for stable chewing, clear speech and an attractive smile line that suits your features. Thoughtful planning and stepwise checks help create predictable progress from surgery through delivery with minimal disruption to your routine and support long-term oral health.
