All-On-4 in Medford & Grants Pass OR

What Is the All-on-4 Treatment?

The All-on-4 dental implant technique offers a permanent, natural-looking solution for patients missing most or all of their teeth. Using precisely placed implants, this method supports a full arch of new teeth and can often be completed in a single day. Whether you’ve been living with dentures or struggling with multiple missing teeth, All-on-4 can restore your smile and your ability to eat effectively and enjoy life.

Patients in Grants Pass & Medford, OR know this option as a modern approach to full arch reconstruction that blends advanced surgical skill with state-of-the-art technology. It is especially helpful for patients who may have lost some bone density due to long-term tooth loss or who cannot undergo bone grafting because of other health conditions. Bone grafting due to health problems is impossible in about 20% of patients.

The All-on-4 treatment concept addresses these drawbacks because it establishes a fully customized denture (bridge) supported by just four titanium implants. These implants support the arch of prosthetic teeth. This innovative process takes advantage of existing bone, even if scarce. 

The posterior implants can be angled to avoid compromising the sinus cavity in the upper jaw and taking advantage of the densest area of bone available.

The All-on-4 Process

1. Consultation & Planning: Dr. Rajagopal will evaluate your oral health, take advanced 3D scans, and discuss your goals.
2. Implant Placement: We strategically place implants to maximize stability and support. The surgery is performed while the patient is sedated for their comfort, and the area is numbed, so there is no pain.
3. Temporary Teeth: In most cases, a custom-crafted set of teeth is attached the same day, so you leave with a complete smile.
4. Healing Phase: For the next few months, the implants fuse with the surrounding jawbone to establish a strong, stable foundation for the permanent restoration. This phase usually takes three to six months.
5. Final Restoration: After healing, your permanent teeth are placed for a beautiful, lasting result.

All-On-4 FAQs

Am I a candidate for All-on-4 dental implants?

If you are missing most or all of your teeth or are frustrated with dentures, you may be an ideal candidate.

A complimentary evaluation by Dr. Rajagopal is the only way to know for sure.

Can I eat normally with All-on-4?

Yes. After the initial healing phase, you can enjoy most foods, including those that were difficult to eat with dentures.

With consistent oral hygiene and routine check-ups, All-on-4 implants can last decades, making them a long-term solution for tooth replacement.
