All-on-4 Dental Implants in Huntington Beach
A Full Set of Teeth on Just 4 Implants — Same-Day Results
The All-on-4 protocol replaces an entire arch of missing teeth with a fixed, non-removable prosthesis supported by just four strategically placed dental implants. Many patients receive temporary teeth the same day as implant placement.
What Is All-on-4 Dental Implants?
All-on-4 is a dental implant protocol developed by Dr. Paulo Malo that uses four titanium implants per arch — two placed vertically in the front and two placed at 30–45 degree angles in the back — to support a full-arch fixed prosthesis containing 10–14 teeth. The angulated posterior implants maximize bone contact without requiring bone grafting, even in patients with moderate bone loss. Clinical studies published in the International Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Implants report a 98% implant survival rate at 10 years for All-on-4 cases.
Who Needs All-on-4 Dental Implants?
All-on-4 is ideal for patients who are completely edentulous (missing all teeth in one or both arches), have failing dentition requiring full-arch extraction, are unhappy with loose or ill-fitting dentures, have been told they lack bone for conventional implants (All-on-4 often eliminates the need for bone grafting), or want a fixed non-removable solution rather than removable dentures.
Cost in Huntington Beach
All-on-4 in Huntington Beach: $20,000–$35,000 per arch depending on prosthesis material (acrylic vs. zirconia). Includes 4 implants, abutments, temporary prosthesis, and final prosthesis. Zirconia (premium) adds $5,000–$10,000 over acrylic. Both arches: $40,000–$65,000. Dental insurance may cover portions under implant and prosthetic benefits. CareCredit financing from $350/month. Full payment discounts often available.
Recovery & Aftercare
Same-day temporary teeth allow immediate (limited) function. Soft/blended diet for first 2 weeks, then gradually softer normal foods for 3 months. Most patients manage with prescribed pain medication for 3–5 days and over-the-counter ibuprofen thereafter. Swelling peaks at day 3 and resolves by day 7–10. Full healing and final prosthesis delivery at 3–6 months.
