All-on-4 Dental Implants
How Do All-on-4 Dental Implants Work?
All-on-4 is a revolutionary implant method that can restore your smile even if you have suffered jawbone atrophy, a side effect of tooth loss. An atrophied jaw is not typically strong enough to support the six to eight implants needed to place a traditional implant-supported denture. This means that many dental implant candidates must first undergo bone grafting to restore lost jaw tissue.
However, All-on-4 implants are placed at strategic angles to maximize contact with the remaining jaw tissue. This provides stable support for a full-arch denture with just four implants. When you choose the All-on-4 method, you can enjoy a comprehensive tooth replacement solution that lets you perform all your normal oral functions with the same comfort and ease you would expect from natural teeth.
Why Patients Trust Our Rockford Team For Top-Quality Implant Dentistry
Many dental practices offer dental implants, but not all offer All-on-4, and even fewer can provide implant patients with the advanced, convenient care that we do. Take a look at what sets us apart from the pack when it comes to dental implant treatment:
State-of-the-Art Technology
Our practice employs the latest tools and technology in dentistry so that our patients can enjoy the best results from their care. When you visit us for dental implants in Rockford, your treatment will include 3D cone beam scans, which capture hyper-accurate digital images of your teeth and oral structures. These scans will aid in the planning of your custom computer-aided surgical guide, which your dentist will use during implant surgery to ensure the most precise placement. Precision is especially important for the long-term success of All-on-4 treatment.
Comprehensive Implant Services
Depending on where you go for dental implant treatment, you may have to deal with a number of different dental professionals throughout your journey. Some practitioners can only place dental implants, while others can only restore them with dental crowns, bridges, or dentures. Gentle Family Dentistry in Rockford, IL, handles the entire dental implant process under one roof, both for traditional implants and All-on-4. You'll work with one dedicated team through every step of your treatment, which can save time in your busy schedule and expedite the process.

They went out of their way to provide a patient focused delivery of service and were professional and friendly. I couldn't have been more pleased. Wish I lived here permanently because I would definitely want them for my regular dental care. The cost of service was affordable and the experience was great for me.

If you and your dentist determine that All-on-4 isn't the best way to restore your smile, you still have treatments available to you, such as:
You won't need a full implant-supported denture if you have just one or a few missing teeth. An implant-supported crown or bridge can fill the gaps instead.
If you don't qualify for All-on-4 dental implants or implant surgery, we can make you a custom removable denture that transforms your dental function and looks completely natural.
Nervous About the Procedure? There's Nothing to Fear—We Use Advanced Anesthetic Technology
Many patients express concern about discomfort during implant surgery, but in reality, they have nothing to worry about. Implant placement is a virtually painless procedure that can be completed with just local anesthesia.
In fact, our dental practice is just one of four in the Rockford area that uses a computer-controlled local anesthetic delivery system, which allows us to precisely monitor your dosage to maximize comfort and safety.
