Core Dental Group All-on-4 Dental Implants at Caroline Springs

All-on-4 pricing at Core Dental Caroline Springs

All costs are provided upfront in writing before any procedure begins. No surprises.

Payright interest-free payment plans are available for up to 30 months. Supercare (early superannuation release) is available for eligible patients, and some Medicare rebates may apply to the surgical component.

What are All-on-4 dental implants?

All-on-4 is a full-arch teeth replacement system that uses four strategically placed titanium implants to support a complete set of teeth for an entire jaw. The name comes from the fact that a full arch is secured by just four implants, which makes the procedure more accessible than traditional approaches that may require one implant per tooth.

Surgery is carried out under general anaesthetic as day surgery, and most patients leave with a functional set of teeth within one to two days. Some Medicare rebates may apply.

Why choose All-on-4?

All-on-4 implants offer real advantages over traditional full dentures:

• Permanent and fixed — no removal, no adhesives, no slipping
• Natural look and feel — designed to suit your facial structure and personal preferences
• Preserves jawbone — implants stimulate bone, preventing the loss that dentures can't stop
• Easier to eat — enjoy virtually any food with confidence
• Improved speech — no denture movement affecting how you talk
• Long-lasting — with proper care, implants can last a lifetime

The All-on-4 process at Caroline Springs

Step 1: Comprehensive assessment

Core Dental Caroline Springs has on-site CBCT 3D imaging — a cone beam computed tomography scanner that lets your dentist assess bone structure, nerve pathways, and sinus anatomy with real precision before treatment begins. That level of detail matters a lot for All-on-4 planning.

Step 2: Treatment planning

Your dentist puts together a customised implant plan based on your 3D scan. You'll receive a full written treatment plan and cost estimate before committing to anything.

Step 3: Surgery

All-on-4 surgery is performed under general anaesthetic at a day surgery facility. Four titanium implants are placed at precise angles to make the most of available bone, including areas toward the back of the jaw where bone density tends to be greater.

Step 4: Immediate temporary teeth

On the same day as your surgery, a temporary fixed bridge is attached to your implants so you leave with functional teeth. You'll follow a soft diet during the healing period.

Step 5: Final restoration

After three to six months of healing, your permanent, custom-crafted final bridge is fitted — the long-term result of your full-arch restoration.

Specialist referral for complex cases

For patients with more complex needs, the Caroline Springs team works closely with the Collins Street Specialist Centre (CSSC), Melbourne's premier specialist dental facility. That referral pathway means even the most challenging cases get the right level of specialist care.
