Experience the Sundial Dental difference in life-changing full-arch implants.
Hey there, Dr. Peter Elfar here from Sundial Dental. I know firsthand how challenging it can be when you’re dealing with missing teeth, uncomfortable dentures, or worrying about teeth that just aren’t holding up anymore. It’s more than just a dental issue, isn’t it? It can really affect how you feel about yourself, how you eat, and how you engage with people.
At Sundial Dental, we believe that everyone deserves the confidence to eat, laugh, and speak without worry. That’s why we’re making our comprehensive All-on-4 dental implant program a cornerstone of our practice. We are bringing world-class full-arch rehabilitation to the Mid North Coast, meaning you don’t have to travel to a capital city for exceptional care. We’re seeing so many of our patients rediscover their confidence, and we truly believe this could be a life-changing solution for you, too.
What is All-on-4? Fixed Teeth, Fewer Implants, Faster Results
In simple terms, All-on-4 is a streamlined surgical technique that replaces a full upper or lower arch of missing teeth using just four strategically placed dental implants. Think of these implants as solid anchors for your smile.
Two implants are placed vertically at the front, and two are placed at an angle at the back. This smart design often avoids the need for complex bone grafting and provides enough strength to securely hold a complete set of beautiful, new teeth in place. Unlike traditional dentures that can slip, slide, or rub, All-on-4 provides a permanent, fixed solution that feels and functions much like your natural teeth.
All-on-4 is an ideal solution for patients who:
- Want a fixed solution that does not need to be removed at night.
- Are currently wearing full dentures and hate the instability or having the roof of their mouth covered.
- Have been told they do not have enough bone for traditional implants (the angled placement of All-on-4 helps overcome this).
- Have failing teeth due to severe gum disease or decay and are facing clearance.
The Sundial Difference: Experience & Our In-House Lab
What makes our approach unique? It starts with experience and a genuine commitment to making your journey as smooth as possible. I’ve personally dedicated a big chunk of my 20+ years in dentistry to implantology, undertaking extensive global training, including advanced All-on-4 surgery and completing the Implant Masters Series in Miami.
But where we really stand apart is our fully equipped in-house dental laboratory. While many clinics have to outsource the making of your teeth to external labs—often overseas or in major cities—we streamline the entire process from start to finish right here.
- Quality Control: From the critical titanium bars to the final zirconia restorations, we oversee every single detail.
- Efficiency: Adjustments can be made right here in the chair, saving you time and ensuring a perfect fit.
- Smart Savings: By removing the middleman, we can offer this premium treatment at a highly competitive price point. This unique setup allows us to potentially save our patients up to $10,000 or more on their All-on-4 treatment compared to what you might find in larger metropolitan areas like Sydney.
How the Process Works
We lean heavily on smart technology to make our All-on-4 program smooth and predictable:
- Consultation & Planning: We use our in-house 3D X-ray (digital imaging) and planning software to meticulously map your jawbone. This allows us to perform 3D guided implant surgery, ensuring incredibly precise placement for better outcomes and a smoother recovery.
- The Procedure: Your surgery is performed under local anaesthetic (with sedation options available for anxiety). Any remaining failing teeth are removed, and the implants are securely placed.
- Immediate Teeth: Because of our on-site lab, we can often fit a high-quality provisional bridge within 24–72 hours of surgery—sometimes even on the very same day! You leave with a fully functional, aesthetic smile while your mouth heals.
- Final Restoration: After the implants have fully integrated with the bone (usually a few months later), we craft and securely place your final, highly durable prosthesis.
Rediscover Your Confidence
Beyond the technology, the expertise, and the value, it’s about our approach. We are a local practice, and we believe in clear, honest communication. We’ll walk you through every step, answer all your questions (even the ones you think are silly!), and ensure you feel completely comfortable and informed. That gentle dental care mantra we live by extends to every aspect of your All-on-4 journey.
