All-On-4 Dental Implants In Scottsdale

Dr. Pete N. Mellas, DMD, offers a sophisticated solution for total tooth loss through the All-on-4 clinical protocol. This procedure replaces an entire arch of teeth using four strategically placed titanium posts, providing immediate stability and a permanent alternative to traditional removable dentures for residents throughout the valley.

Traditional tooth replacement often requires months of healing and multiple surgeries. Our practice simplifies this timeline by utilizing full-arch fixed prosthetics that attach to implants on the same day as your extractions. We leverage 3D Cone Beam CT Imaging to map your bone density with incredible accuracy. This ensures that every implant is positioned to maximize the use of existing bone, often eliminating the need for extensive grafting procedures.

Watching a patient look in the mirror at their new smile for the first time remains the most rewarding part of our day.

The Biomechanics of Immediate Loading

Success in full-arch restoration depends on achieving primary stability. By angling the posterior implants, we tap into the strongest parts of the jaw to support a customized bridge. This zirconia abutment architecture provides the strength needed for natural chewing and speaking. Collaboration between our surgical experts and top-tier labs ensures your new teeth look as natural as they feel.

Common Questions About All-on-4

Can I really get my new teeth in just one day? Yes, we coordinate every detail so that you leave our office with a functional, beautiful set of temporary teeth. While your bone goes through the healing process, you will enjoy the confidence of a fixed smile that does not slip or click like old-fashioned dentures.

Will the procedure be painful during the recovery phase? We use advanced techniques like platelet-rich fibrin therapy to accelerate your natural healing response. Most patients find that any post-operative tenderness is easily managed and far outweighs the years of frustration they experienced with failing teeth or uncomfortable plates.
