FAQs About All-on-4 and Full-Arch Dental Implants in Toronto | Dr. Onur Cavus
Understanding Full-Arch Implant Solutions With Dr. Onur Cavus, BDS, PhD
Replacing a full set of missing teeth can restore both function and confidence.
At Implant Dentistry Toronto, Dr. Cavus offers All-on-4 and full-arch implant treatments — modern solutions that provide fixed, natural-looking teeth supported by dental implants.
What Are All-on-4 Dental Implants?
All-on-4 is a treatment concept where an entire arch of teeth is supported by four strategically placed implants.
It’s ideal for patients missing most or all teeth. Unlike removable dentures, All-on-4 restorations are fixed, offering greater comfort, stability, and function.

How Are All-on-4 Implants Different From Traditional Implants?
Traditional implant cases may require six to eight implants and bone grafting.
All-on-4 uses four implants positioned at specific angles to maximize contact with existing bone — often avoiding grafting and reducing healing time.
Can I Really Get Teeth in a Day?
Yes — a provisional (temporary) bridge can often be attached on the same day as surgery.
This allows you to leave the office with a new smile while your implants integrate with the bone.
The final zirconia bridge is placed once healing is complete.
Am I a Candidate for All-on-4?
Ideal candidates:
Missing most or all teeth in an arch
Have sufficient bone (grafting rarely required)
In good general and oral health
Non-smokers or willing to quit
A full consultation with CBCT imaging helps confirm eligibility.

Is the Procedure Painful?

Post-operative soreness is typically mild and managed with medication.

How Much Do All-on-4 Implants Cost in Toronto?

How Do I Care for My New Teeth?
Treat your All-on-4 bridge like natural teeth:
Brush twice daily with a soft brush
Use a water flosser or interdental brushes
