What can I expect from the procedure?
Dr. Randal S. Elloway has over 30 years of experience in Advanced General Dentistry and Implantology. So, when you opt for all-on-4 implants in our Red Bluff and Chico offices, you can expect unmatched expertise and precision for remarkable outcomes. Here’s the streamlined process of rebuilding your smile with all-on-4 implants.
- Consultation and treatment planning: Dr. Elloway uses digital X-rays and scans to determine your eligibility for the procedure. Eligible patients must be in good oral and systemic health. While a healthy jawbone is essential, the requirements aren’t as strict as traditional implants. The doctor maximizes the available bone, often eliminating the need for bone grafting.
- Implant surgery: You only need one surgical procedure to place titanium posts at precise locations in the jawbone. We use local anesthetics and possibly sedation dentistry to maximize your comfort.
- Temporary restoration: After surgery, we cover your implants with a provisional yet functional restoration. Same-day restoration maintains your beautiful, functional smile while you heal.
- Healing: As your implants heal over the next few months, they will integrate with the jawbone to provide a rock-solid foundation for your permanent restorations.
- Final restoration: Once your implants are fully healed, Dr. Elloway will replace the interim restoration with a custom-made, permanent denture. Your new teeth restore your smile’s appearance and functionality to nearly 100%.

Dental implants are titanium roots, that are replaced with in the jawbone to resemble a tooth or group of teeth. A screw is inserted through the gums and into the jawbone. A porcelain crown is then attached to the screw to become the new tooth or teeth. They can be used to support dental prosthesis including crowns, dentures, and bridges. Today’s treatments are so natural looking, no one will know you had surgery. There’s approximately a 95% success rate for all implants. With modern advances in dentistry, some implants can be restored immediately with life like all porcelain crowns. For more details ask your dentist.
