Upper arch
Four implants support a fixed upper arch. Your dentist checks the bone and the sinus area when planning.
All-on-4 full-arch dental implants in Grand Prairie, Arlington and Commerce, TX
If most of your teeth are missing or failing, or a loose denture makes eating difficult, All-on-4 replaces a full upper or lower arch with fixed teeth. The teeth are attached to four implants, so they stay in your mouth instead of coming out like a denture. This treatment is offered at our Grand Prairie, Arlington and Commerce offices.
All-on-4 $15,999 per arch
About All-on-4 / Full-Arch Dental Implants
All-on-4 is a full-arch treatment in which four implants are placed in the jaw to support a fixed bridge of teeth. Because the back implants are often angled, the treatment can sometimes work with less bone than placing one implant for every tooth. Depending on your bone and how stable the implants are, temporary teeth may be attached while the implants heal, and your final arch is attached after healing.
Who considers All-on-4
- Most or all teeth in an arch are missing
- Remaining teeth are broken, loose or failing from decay or gum disease
- A regular denture slips, rubs or makes chewing hard
- You want fixed teeth instead of a removable denture
Treatment options
Lower arch
Four implants support a fixed lower arch, a common choice for patients whose lower denture moves.
Both arches
Upper and lower arches can be planned together for a complete set of fixed teeth.

- 2

Benefits
- Fixed teeth that do not come out for cleaning
- More stable chewing than a removable denture
- No denture adhesive needed
- Helps preserve jawbone where the implants are placed
Risks and limitations
- It is a surgical treatment, and not everyone has enough bone or good enough health for it
- Healing takes several months before the final teeth are attached
- The arch needs careful daily cleaning and regular checkups to keep the gums around the implants healthy
- Risks include infection, implant failure and, rarely, nerve or sinus injury, and parts of the arch can chip or wear over time
Recovery and aftercare
- Follow a soft-food diet during early healing as your dentist directs
- Expect swelling and soreness for several days and use pain relief as instructed
- Clean under the arch daily with a water flosser or special floss
- Keep regular checkups so the implants and arch can be checked and maintained

Frequently asked questions
Is All-on-4 the same as dentures?
No. A traditional denture rests on the gums and comes out. All-on-4 teeth are attached to implants and stay in place. Implant over-dentures are a middle option that snap onto implants but can be removed.
How long does All-on-4 treatment take?
The implants need several months to bond with the bone before the final arch is attached. Your dentist gives you a timeline at your consultation.
Can I get All-on-4 if I have been told I do not have enough bone?
Sometimes. The angled placement used in All-on-4 can work with less bone in some cases, and bone grafting may be another option. Your exam and X-rays decide what is possible.
Which offices offer All-on-4?
All-on-4 is offered at our Grand Prairie, Arlington and Commerce offices. Dr. Hema Kishore Chapala, who has placed more than 2,000 implants, sees implant patients in Arlington and Grand Prairie.
