All-on-4 Implants® in Marysville, WA

Do you avoid social situations or hide your smile due to missing teeth? At Blu Dental & Wellness, we understand how dealing with tooth loss can drain your confidence and comfort. We are pleased to offer a transformative solution—All-on-4® implants—to restore your smile. 

What Are All-on-4 Implants?

The answer is in the name! Rather than using a single implant to replace every missing tooth, Dr. Timmerman places four strategically-positioned implants in your jawbone to support a full arch of replacement teeth. 

The special placement maximizes bone contact, offering a sturdy foundation for your new teeth and enabling a life-changing smile transformation. Even better, thanks to our Teeth-in-a-Day process, you can leave our office the same day with a complete smile.

The 'All-on-X' Concept

You may also hear this concept referred to as “All-on-X.” In this case, the 'X' represents the number of implants needed to support the prosthetic teeth. So, while All-on-4 relies on four implants, All-on-6 uses six. 

Dr. Timmerman will use his expertise to evaluate your needs and recommend the most suitable solution.

All-on-4 implants may be perfect for you if you are: 

• Tired of living with ill-fitting dentures
• Have experienced bone loss in your jaw
• Want a tooth replacement that looks and feels natural
• Tried other tooth replacements without success.

Ready to see if you’re an All-on-4 candidate? We invite you to contact our Marysville, WA, dental office to schedule a consultation with Dr. Timmerman to get started!

Benefits of All-on-4 Implants

All-on-4 and dental implants, in general, offer numerous benefits, making them a popular choice for tooth replacement:

• Improved chewing function — You can chew properly and enjoy your favorite foods again without discomfort.
• Enhanced facial appearance — Implants help support facial structure after tooth loss to avoid the sunken appearance associated with missing teeth.
• Long-term tooth replacement — All-on-4 implants become part of your dental anatomy and can last a lifetime with proper care.
• Secure and stable — Forget the slipping, shifting, and soreness associated with traditional dentures. All-on-4 implants stay securely in place without the need for messy adhesives. 
• Teeth-in-a-day — In many cases, we can perform tooth extraction (if necessary), place your implants, and attach replacement teeth all in one day.

The success of All-on-4 treatment relies heavily on the expertise of your dental implant dentist. Dr. Timmerman has extensive training and experience in dental implantology. He is committed to high-quality treatment, patient comfort, and the best possible outcomes.

The Procedure for Getting All-on-4 Dental Implants

Evaluation and Treatment Planning

Dr. Timmerman examines your mouth using advanced technology like 3-D cone beam CT scans to ensure you are a good candidate for the procedure. Then he uses the information to create an individualized treatment plan for optimal results. 

Implant Placement

Our team wants you to have a great experience, so your comfort is our priority. The strong local anesthetic we use ensures your mouth is numb and you won’t feel any pain during your procedure. After placing the four implants, Dr. Timmerman attaches temporary replacement teeth so you can start smiling confidently right away.

Recovery and Final Dentures

Over the next few months, your mouth will heal, and the implants will fuse with your jawbone. Once fully integrated, we will securely attach the final replacement teeth to the implants.
