If you’re missing most or all of your teeth and want a long-term, fixed solution that looks and feels natural, All-on-4 dental implants may be the answer. Unlike traditional dentures that can shift, rub or feel unstable, All-on-4 offers a full-arch restoration supported by just four strategically placed implants. At Skye Dental, our implant dentistry services with experience, compassion and a strong focus on delivering natural-looking results that restore both function and confidence.
All-on-4 is a modern dental solution for patients who have lost all or most of their teeth in either the upper or lower jaw. The procedure involves placing four titanium implants into the jawbone, two near the front of the mouth and two angled towards the back. These four implants support a full-arch fixed prosthesis (bridge), allowing patients to leave with new teeth often on the same day as surgery.
This technique avoids the need for bone grafting in many cases and takes advantage of the denser bone at the front of the jaw. It’s ideal for patients who may have been told they don’t have enough bone for traditional implants.
This treatment is ideal for patients who:
Have multiple missing or failing teeth
Struggle with loose or uncomfortable dentures
Have sufficient bone in the front of the jaw (or want to avoid bone grafting)
Are in good general health and want a long-term solution
If you’ve been told you’re not a candidate for traditional implants due to bone loss, All-on-4 may still be a viable option. A comprehensive consultation and 3D imaging at Skye Dental will determine your suitability.

All-on-4 implants have a strong track record, with studies showing a 90–98% success rate over five years. Proper hygiene, regular dental check-ups, and avoiding habits like smoking will help ensure your new teeth remain healthy and secure for years to come.
Our team will guide you through every step of aftercare, including gentle brushing techniques, follow-up visits, and advice on caring for your prosthetic teeth.
As with any surgical procedure, there are risks, such as implant failure, infection, or inflammation around the implants. However, with modern planning technology, experienced clinicians like Dr Elliot, and meticulous hygiene protocols, these risks are greatly minimised.
From consultation to surgery, it varies, but many patients receive their temporary teeth on the same day as implant placement.
The surgery is done under local anaesthesia, with sedation options available. Most patients report mild discomfort manageable with pain relief.
With proper care, the implants themselves can last decades. The bridge may need replacement after 10–15 years depending on wear.
