All-on-4 Implant result

The case

The plan the clinic wrote.

Four implants placed in the upper jaw under local anaesthesia, with strategic angulation to avoid grafting. A same-day provisional bridge was delivered, followed by a definitive All-on-4 bridge after osseointegration.

The journey

How it actually went.

A patient from the United States came to Worldwide Dental and Plastic Surgery Hospital in Ho Chi Minh City after being quoted more than USD 24,000 for All-on-4 treatment at home. A failing upper arch with extensive bone loss and multiple missing teeth had been affecting her confidence and daily function for years.

The treatment team placed four implants in the upper jaw with carefully chosen angulation to achieve immediate stability and avoid the need for sinus augmentation. A full-arch provisional bridge was delivered on the day of surgery. The definitive prosthesis was fitted after the integration period, completing the restoration.

Total treatment cost at Worldwide Hospital was USD 6,800. Comparable All-on-4 treatment in the United States is typically priced at USD 20,000 to 25,000. Combining the dental visit with a trip to Ho Chi Minh City gave the patient a meaningful result at a fraction of the cost she had been quoted at home.

Questions

What people ask about this case.

How much did this patient save on All-on-4 in USA?

This patient paid USD $6,800 for All-on-4 in USA, compared to an at-home quote of USD $24,000, a saving of USD $17,200 (72%). Dental treatment costs in USA are typically 60 to 80 percent lower than equivalent private dental care in Australia, the UK, or the United States, primarily because of lower clinic overheads and labour costs rather than any difference in materials or technology.

How long does All-on-4 take in USA?

This patient's All-on-4 treatment in USA took 5 days. Treatment timelines vary depending on the number of implants, whether bone grafting is needed, and the healing interval between implant placement and final crown or bridge fitting. A SmileJet treatment plan quote will include a personalised timeline based on your X-rays and clinical photos.

Is All-on-4 in USA as safe as getting it done at home?

Implant survival rates in accredited USA clinics are comparable to Western standards. The Moraschini 2015 meta-analysis of 7,711 implants reported a pooled 5-year survival rate of 94.6 percent, consistent with outcomes published by US and European implant societies. SmileJet partner clinics are independently verified for practitioner credentials, sterilisation protocols, and implant brand traceability before listing. Patients receive all clinical records and X-rays digitally for their home dentist.

What implant brands are available at SmileJet partner clinics in USA?

SmileJet partner clinics in USA carry internationally recognised implant brands including Straumann (Switzerland), Nobel Biocare (Sweden/US), Osstem (South Korea), and BioHorizons (US). The specific brand available depends on the clinic; your treatment plan quote will specify which brand is recommended for your case and why.

How did this patient find and choose a dental clinic in USA?

This patient used SmileJet to request a written treatment plan and cost estimate from verified clinics in USA. SmileJet verified clinics are screened for practitioner credentials, hygiene standards, implant brand traceability, and English-language patient coordination before listing. The patient submitted dental X-rays and a description of the problem, received a written plan within 48 hours, and booked directly through the platform. The process is free and carries no obligation to proceed.

Can you fly home after All-on-4 surgery in USA?

Most patients fly home 7 to 14 days after implant surgery, once the surgical sites are stable and temporary restorations are fitted. Long-haul flights (over 8 hours) are generally fine after the first week, provided there is no active bleeding or acute swelling. Your SmileJet clinic will confirm a specific travel clearance date based on your clinical progress. Patients are advised to carry a copy of their treatment records and the surgeon's contact number in case their home dentist needs to follow up.
