ALL-ON-4 DENTAL IMPLANTS IN ALBUQUERQUE, NM — ADVANCED, AFFORDABLE FULL-ARCH TREATMENT

Losing most or all of your teeth affects far more than your ability to chew. It can impact your confidence, facial support, speech, and daily comfort. Traditional dentures often fail to provide the stability and bite strength patients want, especially when bone loss begins to occur naturally after extractions. All-on-4 dental implants solve these problems by creating a strong, fixed foundation for a full arch of teeth using as few as four strategically placed implants. The result is a secure, natural-looking smile that stays in place and restores your quality of life.

At Osuna Dental Care, our approach to All-on-4 is built on precision and affordability. We use high-resolution CBCT imaging, digital planning, and advanced implant techniques to create customized full-arch solutions for patients who want predictable, long-term results. Our team has extensive experience with full-arch implant workflows, including immediate stabilization, angled posterior implant placement, prosthetic design, and long-term maintenance. This allows more patients — even those with bone loss — to qualify for fixed full-arch treatment without the need for extensive bone grafting.

The All-on-4 procedure is one of the most powerful ways to restore your smile, and more patients in Albuquerque are choosing Osuna Dental Care because we combine clinical excellence with transparent pricing and comprehensive care. Rather than charging unpredictable or inflated fees, we offer complete All-on-4 treatment for $16,000 per arch, making us one of the most affordable full-arch implant providers in Albuquerque while maintaining exceptional quality.

WHAT EXACTLY IS ALL-ON-4?

All-on-4 dental implants replace an entire upper or lower arch of teeth using four to six implants that anchor a fixed, full-arch prosthesis. The implants are placed in areas of dense bone — often using two straight anterior implants and two angled posterior implants — to maximize stability. By angling posterior implants, we can avoid anatomical limitations such as the sinus cavities in the upper jaw or the nerve canal in the lower jaw. This reduces the need for bone grafting and enables many patients to receive same-day stabilization.

Once the implants are secured at the proper torque, a custom temporary prosthesis can often be attached the same day or shortly after surgery. This is what people commonly refer to as “teeth in a day.” However, the long-term success of All-on-4 comes from careful, detailed planning, proper bite design, and precise implant angulation — all areas where advanced digital tools like CBCT imaging and intraoral scanning significantly improve outcomes.

Patients choose All-on-4 because it offers an alternative to dentures that feels more like natural teeth. The prosthesis does not move, does not require adhesives, and distributes biting force through the implants into the bone, which helps maintain bone levels over time. Many patients also experience improved speech, better chewing efficiency, and a major boost in self-confidence once they see their new smile.

BENEFITS OF ALL-ON-4 DENTAL IMPLANTS

Patients often describe All-on-4 as life-changing for several reasons:

• Fixed, non-removable replacement for dentures

• Strong chewing power for everyday foods

• Prevents further bone loss in the jaw

• Stays securely in place without adhesives

• Natural-looking aesthetics customized to your face

• Immediate improvement in smile and confidence

• Designed to last decades with proper care

• More affordable than replacing every tooth with individual implants

• Often avoids bone grafting thanks to angled implants

The combination of function, aesthetics, and stability makes All-on-4 the gold standard for full-arch rehabilitation.

WHO IS A GOOD CANDIDATE?

Most adults with multiple missing or failing teeth can qualify for All-on-4, even if they've been turned away elsewhere. Ideal candidates include:

• Patients with failing teeth, severe decay, or advanced gum disease

• Long-term denture wearers seeking fixed teeth

• Patients with bone loss who want to avoid grafting

• Adults who want a full-arch solution that is stable and natural

• Patients seeking a permanent alternative to dentures

• Individuals ready for predictable, long-term results

Our CBCT scan allows us to evaluate bone density, nerve locations, sinus anatomy, and implant placement angles. This type of imaging is critical for accurate planning and helps us determine whether you’re a candidate for immediate stabilization.

You do not need perfect bone to qualify. Many patients who previously believed they needed complex bone grafting are candidates for All-on-4 at Osuna Dental Care.

THE ALL-ON-4 PROCESS — STEP BY STEP

We combine advanced technology with a predictable workflow:

Step 1: Consultation & CBCT Imaging
We begin with a detailed exam, digital impressions, and a high-resolution CBCT scan. This allows us to analyze bone levels, assess existing teeth, and digitally map implant positions.

Step 2: Digital Planning
Using 3D software, we design your ideal implant angulation, prosthetic shape, bite alignment, and esthetics. This ensures maximum stability and a natural-looking final outcome.

Step 3: Implant Placement
We place four to six implants per arch using guided or freehand placement depending on your anatomy. Posterior implants may be angled to avoid the sinus or nerve canal.

Step 4: Immediate Stabilization
If implants reach sufficient torque, a custom temporary prosthesis can be attached shortly after surgery so you leave with a fixed smile.

Step 5: Healing Phase
During the next three to six months, the implants fuse to the bone. You’ll continue wearing your fixed temporary set of teeth during this time.

Step 6: Final Prosthesis
Once healing is complete, we create your final full-arch prosthesis using high-strength materials designed for long-term function and aesthetics. Digital scanning ensures an accurate fit.

RECOVERY AND AFTERCARE

Most patients are surprised by how manageable the recovery process is. Mild soreness and swelling are common for a few days, but most patients return to normal activity quickly.

FAQ

How long does All-on-4 treatment take from start to finish?
Most patients complete full treatment in 4–6 months, including healing time and final prosthesis fabrication. Many patients receive a fixed temporary prosthesis the same day or within 24 hours of surgery.

Is All-on-4 painful?
The procedure is performed with local anesthesia and optional sedation. Most patients describe soreness for a few days but no significant pain.

How long do All-on-4 implants last?
With proper care, the implants themselves can last decades or a lifetime. The prosthetic teeth typically last 10–15 years before replacement depending on wear.

Is All-on-4 better than dentures?
For most patients, yes. All-on-4 provides a fixed, natural-feeling solution that restores bite strength and prevents bone loss, unlike removable dentures.

Am I too old for All-on-4 implants?
Age is not the main factor — health and bone quality matter most. Many of our successful All-on-4 patients are in their 60s, 70s, and even 80s.

What if I have bone loss?
All-on-4 uses angled implants placed in areas of dense bone, allowing many patients with bone loss to qualify without grafting.

Will I be without teeth at any point?
In most cases, no. If the implants achieve primary stability, we place a temporary fixed prosthesis immediately or shortly after surgery.

Can I choose how my final smile looks?
Absolutely. We customize tooth shade, shape, length, and overall smile design to match your preferences.

Do you offer financing?
Yes. We work with multiple financing partners to make full-arch treatment accessible for more patients.
