All on Four Dental Implants
Happy Rock Dental offers All-on-4 Implants, which look and perform like natural teeth. The All-on-4 replaces an entire arch of teeth and can be supported by as few as four dental implants.
With this screw-retained device, you’ll find that bitting into foods like a medium-rare steak or a crisp apple is effortless. It is a permanent solution and a more functional choice than traditional dentures, giving you up to 95% of your natural chewing ability.

Are All-on-4 Implants Right For Me?
If you’re missing most or all of your teeth or are unsatisfied with your current traditional dentures, then All-on-4 is right for you. Twenty-five million Americans are living with all of their upper or lower teeth missing. It’s a common problem and one that you can fix.
Thanks to dental implant technology, you don’t have to settle for uncomfortable dentures. With only four implants, you can have the entire top or bottom row of your teeth replaced. These implants are permanently fixed into place, and they feel and function just like your natural teeth.
At Happy Rock Dental in Gladstone, Missouri, we offer all of our patients a complimentary consultation. At this consultation, we’ll perform a scan to determine your implant needs and customize a treatment plan just for you.
More information on Restorations
Here at our Gladstone office, we want you to feel knowledgeable about how these implants work before you make a final decision. Let’s start with what exactly a dental implant is:
Dental implants consist of a small titanium screw inserted directly into the jawbone to take the place of the root and a crown attached to the screw. The result looks and feels like a natural tooth.
The great thing about All-on-4 implants is that you don’t need an implant for every single missing tooth. You’ll simply need four implants on the top row of your mouth and four implants on the bottom row. Between these eight implants only, the procedure will restore your entire smile.
All-on-4 Implants are long-lasting. The bone in your jaw will fuse to the implanted titanium screw, so you never have to worry about these implants coming loose. Once you have your new smile, you’ll have it permanently.
The fusion between the implant and your jaw bone will also prevent any future bone loss. This will result in a more youthful facial appearance that lasts.
About the All-on-Four Procedure
It will take a couple of visits to our office to finalize your new smile. First and foremost, you’ll need to have the titanium screws inserted. The insertion of the titanium screws is a minor surgery that will have a healing phase before we can add the implants. You’ll have temporary arches while you heal.
The healing phase timeframe varies from patient to patient. Once you have healed and the screws have fused to your jaw, you’ll be able to come back into our office to have your temporary arches replaced by your new, permanent teeth!
Implants Vs. Traditional Dentures
If you already have dentures or are considering getting them, you should give All-on-4 Implants some serious thought. Here are some of the main differences between All-on-4 implants and traditional dentures:
