All on 4 Dental Implants in Boynton Beach, FL

All on 4 dental implants replace a full arch of missing or failing teeth with a fixed set of new teeth anchored on just four implants. If you’ve lost most of your teeth — or you’re tired of a denture that slips — this is the treatment that gives you back a permanent smile, often with teeth placed the same day. It’s one of the most life-changing procedures we offer at Fancy Smiles Dental Studio in Boynton Beach.

Here’s exactly how it works, who it’s right for, what recovery looks like, and how much it costs.

Instead of one implant per missing tooth, the All on 4 technique uses four titanium implants per jaw — angled to take advantage of your available bone — as a sturdy foundation for a full arch of fixed replacement teeth. The bone fuses to those implants in a process called osseointegration, which is what lets four implants carry a whole set of teeth securely. Unlike a removable denture, the arch stays put — you don’t take it out at night.

All-on-X is simply the updated name for full-arch implant treatment, and it reflects that the ideal number of implants can vary from person to person. All-on-4 uses four implants and is still the most common approach. Some cases do better with five or six implants, sometimes called All-on-5 or All-on-6, for extra support, depending on your bone and bite. The idea is the same either way: a full, fixed set of teeth anchored to implants. We recommend the configuration that fits your jaw, not a one-size-fits-all number.

In many cases we can remove any remaining failing teeth, place the four implants, and attach a temporary fixed arch in a single visit — so you walk out with teeth. That temporary is replaced with your final, custom arch once the implants have fully integrated over the following months. “Same day” means same-day function and appearance, not a skipped healing process.

A conventional denture rests on the gums, can slip while you eat or talk, and does nothing to stop the jawbone from shrinking over time. Because All on 4 is anchored to the bone, it reduces the bone loss that comes with dentures and restores chewing power much closer to natural teeth. If you’re comparing options, our dentures page covers the removable route honestly, and for a single gap see single tooth dental implant.

All on 4 was designed to work for many people who were told they didn’t have enough bone for traditional implants, because the angled placement uses denser bone. Most healthy adults missing a full arch — or close to it — are candidates. Uncontrolled health conditions and heavy tobacco use can affect healing, so we start with 3D imaging and a health review to confirm it’s right for you.

You should understand what you are paying for before you commit to anything. The cost of All on 4 varies from person to person, because no two mouths are the same. Rather than quote a one-size-fits-all number, Dr. Scarlett gives you a clear, personalized estimate at your consultation, with no surprises.

What Affects the Cost

• Whether you are restoring one arch or both
• Any extractions needed before the implants are placed
• Whether bone grafting is required first
• The materials chosen for your final fixed arch
• Imaging and any preparatory treatment before surgery

Because these factors differ for everyone, the most honest thing we can do is look at your specific situation and give you a real number.

You do not have to pay all at once. We offer CareCredit, a healthcare financing option with low monthly payment plans, so you can move forward on a timeline that works for you. Full details are on our dental insurance and financing page.

Prefer to spread out the cost of your everyday dental care too? Our in-house membership plan offers savings on routine and preventive visits, with no insurance required.

Most patients take it easy for the first two to three days, managing mild swelling and soreness with what we recommend, and return to work within about a week. You’ll eat soft foods while the implants integrate beneath your new arch over the next few months, then transition to your permanent teeth. Most people are surprised how quickly the hardest part is behind them.

If you’re missing a full arch or facing the loss of one, All on 4 dental implants can give you a fixed, natural-looking smile far sooner than you’d expect. Book a consultation in Boynton Beach and we’ll tell you exactly what your case involves — or compare every option on our dental implants page.
