All-on-4 Dental Implants in Lorton
Residents of Lorton, a growing southern Fairfax County community near the Occoquan River and the Workhouse Arts Center, now have convenient access to expert all-on-4 dental implants care at Precision Periodontics & Implant Dentistry in nearby Alexandria. All-on-4 dental implants use just four strategically placed implants to support a full arch of replacement teeth, offering complete smile restoration with fewer implants and shorter treatment timelines.
We welcome patients from Lorton and surrounding areas to our Alexandria office, conveniently located about 20 minutes away. This innovative approach often eliminates the need for bone grafting by angling the posterior implants to maximize existing bone structure, making it an option for patients with moderate bone loss.

Frequently Asked Questions
All-on-Four Dental Implants FAQ for Lorton Patients
How long does the All-on-Four procedure take from start to finish?
The surgical placement of four implants and attachment of a temporary fixed prosthesis typically takes one day. Your permanent zirconia or acrylic prosthesis is usually delivered three to six months later, once the implants have fully integrated with your jawbone.
Can I get All-on-Four implants if I have significant bone loss?
Yes — that is one of the main advantages of All-on-Four. The posterior implants are placed at an angle to maximize contact with available bone, often eliminating the need for bone grafting procedures that traditional implant placement would require.
What can I eat after All-on-Four implant surgery?
For the first six to eight weeks, you'll follow a soft-food diet — scrambled eggs, yogurt, smoothies, mashed potatoes, and well-cooked pasta. Once your permanent prosthesis is placed, you can return to eating virtually anything, including steak and raw vegetables.
How do All-on-Four implants compare to traditional dentures in terms of bone preservation?
Traditional dentures sit on the gums and do nothing to prevent bone loss — in fact, the jawbone typically continues to resorb. All-on-Four implants stimulate the bone just like natural tooth roots, helping maintain jawbone density and facial structure over time.
