All-on-4® Dental Implants in Tuscaloosa, AL
Tired of loose dentures or missing most of your teeth? At Rhodes & Rhodes Family Dentistry, we offer All-on-4® dental implants in Tuscaloosa as a revolutionary solution to restore your entire smile—securely and permanently.
Using just four strategically placed implants per arch, the All-on-4 method supports a full set of teeth with unmatched stability, function, and aesthetics. Many patients even leave with a new smile the same day.

What Is All-on-4?
All-on-4 is a full-mouth restoration technique that uses four dental implants to support a fixed, full-arch prosthetic—replacing all teeth on the upper or lower jaw without the need for a separate implant for each tooth.
This advanced method allows for:
- Fewer implants than traditional approaches
- Immediate placement of a temporary smile
- Enhanced comfort and function compared to dentures
- Long-lasting results with proper care
We also offer other dental implant solutions, including single implants and implant dentures, but All-on-4 is often the best option when most or all teeth are missing.
Benefits of All-on-4 Dental Implants
- Permanent Solution – No adhesives, slippage, or nightly removal
- Bone Preservation – Implants stimulate the jawbone to prevent bone loss
- Same-Day Smile – Most patients leave with a temporary, natural-looking arch on the same day as surgery
- Fewer Implants – Just four implants needed per arch (sometimes 5–6 based on anatomy)
- Better Quality of Life – Eat, speak, and smile with total confidence
Compared to traditional full dentures, All-on-4 offers superior comfort, function, and long-term health benefits.
Who Is a Candidate for All-on-4?
All-on-4 is ideal for patients who:
- Are missing all or most of their upper or lower teeth
- Struggle with loose or ill-fitting dentures
- Want a fixed alternative to removable prosthetics
- Have sufficient bone structure (or are candidates for bone grafting)
- Want to restore their smile permanently in fewer appointments
We’ll perform a full evaluation using 3D imaging to determine your candidacy and walk you through your treatment plan step-by-step.
What to Expect During Treatment
- Consultation & Digital Imaging
We use advanced diagnostics to assess your bone health, bite, and smile goals. - Implant Placement
Four titanium implants are placed at precise angles to maximize strength and avoid bone grafting in many cases. - Immediate Prosthetic
In most cases, a temporary full-arch prosthetic is placed the same day—so you leave with a functioning smile. - Healing Period
Over the next few months, the implants integrate with your jawbone (osseointegration). - Final Restoration
We replace the temporary prosthesis with your final, custom-made smile—crafted for long-term comfort and beauty.
How Long Do All-on-4 Implants Last?
With proper oral hygiene and routine dental care, All-on-4 implants can last 20+ years or even a lifetime. The implant posts are designed to be permanent, and the full-arch prosthetic can be replaced over time if needed.

Is All-on-4 painful?
Most patients report minimal discomfort during recovery. We use local anesthesia and post-op care to keep you comfortable throughout the process.
Can I really get teeth the same day?
Yes. In many cases, we place a temporary fixed prosthetic the same day as implant surgery. The final prosthetic is placed after healing.
How long do All-on-4 implants last?
The implants themselves can last a lifetime. The prosthetic arch may need replacement after 10–15 years depending on wear.
Is All-on-4 better than traditional dentures?
Yes. All-on-4 is fixed, does not move, prevents bone loss, and restores chewing strength more effectively than traditional dentures.
Does insurance cover All-on-4 implants?
Coverage varies, but many plans contribute toward portions of the procedure. We offer financing through CareCredit and Cherry to make treatment accessible.
