  "content": "# All-on-4 Dental Implants at Core Dental South Melbourne\n\nCore Dental South Melbourne at 87 Market St, South Melbourne offers assessment and coordination of All-on-4 dental implant treatment for patients in South Melbourne, Port Melbourne, Albert Park, St Kilda, and Melbourne's inner south.\n\nCall (03) 9114 7700 to book a consultation.\n\n## What is All-on-4?\n\nAll-on-4 is a full-arch implant solution that permanently replaces an entire row of teeth using just four titanium implants. The prosthetic arch attached to these implants looks, feels, and functions like natural teeth - without the inconvenience and limitations of conventional dentures.\n\nFor patients who are missing most or all teeth, or who are struggling with ill-fitting dentures, All-on-4 can be genuinely life-changing:\n\n- No more slipping, clicking, or sore spots from loose dentures\n- Eat a full, unrestricted diet\n- Speak clearly and confidently\n- Preserve the jawbone and facial structure\n- A permanent smile you can care for like natural teeth\n\n## Pricing Guide\n\nAll-on-4 treatment at Core Dental includes the full pathway: assessment, prosthetic design, surgical coordination, and follow-up care. As a guide, All-on-4 treatment starts from approximately $31,000 for a single arch and $56,000 for a full dual-arch (upper and lower) restoration. A detailed written quote based on your specific clinical requirements is provided before any treatment commences - no hidden fees.\n\nInterest-free payment plans through Payright are available, spreading the cost over up to 30 months.\n\n## Our Team at South Melbourne\n\nLead clinician **Dr Scott Krause** (DDS, Loma Linda University, California, 2009) brings an exceptional international background to South Melbourne. Dual-licensed in the USA, Australia, and New Zealand, Dr Krause spent 7 years in private practice in California and has participated in dental missions across Kenya, Bangladesh, Jamaica, and Micronesia. His experience across complex restorative and implant cases is a genuine asset for patients considering All-on-4 treatment.\n\n**Dr Anchal Verma** (BDS, Adelaide) is a Clinical Lecturer at the University of Melbourne and is transitioning to lead clinician at South Melbourne. Her academic background ensures treatment is guided by the latest evidence-based practice.\n\n## CEREC Technology at South Melbourne\n\nCore Dental South Melbourne is equipped with CEREC same-day crown milling technology.

Your Core Dental dentist coordinates the referral, and your records are shared securely within the group.\n\nThis gives South Melbourne and inner-city patients convenient access to world-class All-on-4 surgical expertise in the CBD, with prosthetic care managed close to home at Core Dental.\n\nCollins Street Specialist Centre - Phone: (03) 9650 2726\n\n## Frequently Asked Questions\n\n**How long does All-on-4 treatment take?**\nThe full All-on-4 process typically takes 3 to 6 months from initial consultation to final restoration, including the surgical placement phase, healing time, and prosthetic fitting. A same-day temporary arch may be placed on the day of surgery.\n\n**Is All-on-4 painful?**\nThe surgical procedure is performed under general anaesthesia as a day surgery - you will not feel anything during the procedure. Post-operative discomfort is managed with prescribed pain relief and typically resolves within 1 to 2 weeks.\n\n**How long do All-on-4 implants last?**\nWith good oral hygiene and regular professional maintenance, All-on-4 implants can last 20 years or more. The titanium implants fuse permanently with the jawbone, while the prosthetic arch may require replacement or adjustment over time.\n\n**Am I a suitable candidate?**\nMost adults with significant tooth loss or failing dentition are candidates for All-on-4. Adequate bone density is preferred but not always essential. A full clinical assessment - including imaging - determines your suitability and the best treatment approach.\n\n## Book a Consultation\n\nCore Dental South Melbourne is at 87 Market St, South Melbourne - near South Melbourne Market and well-served by tram.
