All-On-4 Dental Implants
Replace an arch of missing teeth in Hertfordshire
If you have very few teeth, no teeth at all, or if your teeth are in very bad condition, you would benefit from all-on-4 dental implants.
This type of dental implant uses just 4 or sometimes 6 dental implants to replace a whole arch of missing teeth. All-on-4 dental implants and all-on-6 dental implants re also referred to as “Smile In A Day”, “Teeth In A Day” and “Same Day Teeth.”
This is because you can get a complete arch of new teeth in the same day!
At Inspire Dental we have treated hundreds of patients from Croxley Green, Northwood and throughout Hertfordshire for all-on-4 dental implants and all of them have reported how life-changing the treatment has been.

Before & After
Dental Implants
What is the process
for Same Day Teeth in Rickmansworth?
Your first step in the all-on-4 dental implant process begins with a free consultation
Step One – Free Consultation
We will assess your mouth, teeth and gums to determine which teeth are missing, where in your mouth they are located and if you have any teeth that need to be removed.
At this stage we will take x-rays and a CT scan of your mouth and jaw which helps us to better understand the health of your gums and bones which are necessary for supporting all-on-4 dental implants.
We will also have a chat about your oral and general health as this will help us understand whether you are suitable for dental implant treatment. If you smoke, suffer from certain illnesses or take certain medication you may have to wait to start your dental implant treatment until you have given up smoking or finished your medication
Step Two – Treatment Plan
Step three – dental implant surgery
When you are ready, we will give you a local anaesthetic which will make your mouth numb so that you do not feel any pain.
If you have teeth in bad condition, these are gently extracted at this stage.
Next, our expert team will carefully make 4 or 6 small incisions into either your upper or lower jaw and the dental implants are carefully placed in your jawbone.
The abutments are then fitted to the implants and finally, a temporary bridge is anchored in place to the implants which supports a set of temporary new teeth. You can now leave the dental surgery in Rickmansworth with a new smile hence the name – “Same Day Smile!”
Step Four – Healing Process
Your mouth and gums may feel sore immediately after dental implant surgery, but this can be managed with paracetamol, and rest assured you will feel better in a day or two.
We wait for a period of between 3 and 6 months for the dental implant to integrate with your jawbone. This process is called osseointegration and is vital to ensure the success and longevity of your dental implants.
Step five – fitting of your bespoke restoration
Once this is ready, you will be invited back to the dental surgery in Rickmansworth to have your final restoration fitted.
We will talk through how to maintain and care for your new teeth to ensure their longevity.
Your all-on-4 dental implant journey is now complete, and you can show off your lovely new smile.
What are
All-on-4 dental implants?
Just like a single dental implant for one missing tooth, the 4 dental implants are made up of 3 components
An abutment which connects the titanium rod to the third and final component
The dental bridge containing your set of new teeth. The bridge is anchored in place at either side of the gap by the dental implants

Frequently Asked Questions
About All-On-4 Dental Implants?
Should I get all-on-4 dental implants?
Only you can answer this question, but it is important to deal with a missing tooth or missing teeth. If you lose one or more of your teeth you not only have a gap in your smile, but you will also notice other problems.
You may find that chewing or eating is painful or uncomfortable. Some people notice a slur in their speech. The bigger issue to all of this is bone loss. With a missing tooth, your jawbone begins to recede. Without the support of your teeth and facial bones, your face starts to sag, making it look more wrinkled, prematurely aged and sunken in appearance. Dental implants act like your missing tooth root and help to prevent bone loss.
Do all-on-4 dental implants ever fail?
Dental implants of all types can fail but it is rare – affecting about 2% of cases.
Dental implants are made from surgical grade titanium, which is a biocompatible material, so it is hardly ever rejected by the body. There is a slight chance of the dental implant not integrating with the bone and if this happens, it is replaced by another. It is highly unlikely that the second implant would not integrate.
The biggest cause of dental implants failing once they have integrated with the bone is due to the patient smoking. Other possible reasons why dental implants fail after integration with the bone include: poor oral hygiene, an infection, gum disease, certain medical conditions and poor bone quality.
Can I get all-on-4 dental implants on the NHS?
All-on-4 dental implants are not typically available on the NHS because they are considered a cosmetic treatment. NHS treatments focus more on those that are necessary to protect your oral and general health rather than those that are primarily seen as cosmetic treatment. If you are looking to have all-on-4 dental implants, you will need to have this treatment privately.
