This page is for Sheffield patients considering All-on-4 full arch dental implants to replace a failing or missing upper or lower set of teeth. It explains what All-on-4 involves, who it suits, what it costs at our Sheffield practice, and how the NHS and private pathways differ.
Core takeaway: All-on-4 is a fixed full arch solution assessed case by case.
This content is for general information only. It does not replace a clinical assessment.
All-on-4 (a full arch implant technique using four implants per jaw) replaces an entire upper or lower set of teeth with a fixed bridge. Two of the implants are tilted at the back of the jaw to engage denser anterior bone and, in many cases, avoid the need for bone grafting. All-on-4 is intended for patients who are losing or have lost most or all teeth in an arch — it is not a treatment for single or small-gap tooth loss. Sheffield patients typically consider it when multiple teeth are failing, when existing dentures have become unstable, or when a fixed alternative to removable dentures is the priority. A full clinical assessment, including a CBCT scan, is required before suitability can be confirmed.
For a deeper breakdown of the underlying technique, you can read about how the All-on-4 procedure replaces a full arch on four implants.
Deepcar Dental Care is a private Sheffield practice offering the complete All-on-4 pathway under one roof in S36. Patients travel to us from Sheffield city centre, Stocksbridge, Penistone, Hillsborough, Chapeltown and the wider northern Sheffield area — usually within a 20–30 minute drive, with on-site parking available. Our Sheffield full arch service covers the full pathway in one place: consultation, CBCT planning, surgical placement, provisional bridge, and the final fixed bridge. Complex cases are handled jointly with specialist Mohammed Anabtawi, so referral out of the practice is rarely needed. Sheffield patients often tell us the continuity of seeing the same clinician from planning to final bridge is a key reason they chose to travel to Deepcar.
You can see the wider dental implant treatment at our Sheffield practice on our dedicated Sheffield page.
All-on-4 at our Sheffield practice starts from around £12,000 per jaw, with the final figure depending on the individual case. Your consultation and CBCT scan confirm exactly what is included in your personalised Sheffield quote, so you know what you are paying for before any treatment begins. Separate costs apply for the initial consultation (£100, redeemable against treatment) and CBCT scan (£150). Finance is available through Tabeo — up to 18 months interest-free, or up to 60 months at 10.9% APR representative, subject to status. Because every mouth is different, we confirm the exact Sheffield price after your consultation and CBCT.
A full cost breakdown is available on our page covering the full cost breakdown for All-on-4 treatment in the UK, and current practice pricing is always on our fees page.
Dental implants, including full arch treatments like All-on-4, are not routinely available on the NHS. NHS provision is limited to exceptional clinical cases — for example, following oral cancer, significant trauma, or certain congenital conditions — and is delivered through hospital services on a case-by-case basis. In practice, Sheffield patients seeking full arch implant treatment typically access it through private practices such as Deepcar Dental Care. For the vast majority of Sheffield patients seeking to replace a full arch of teeth, the NHS pathway is standard dentures rather than implants. Patients who want a fixed, non-removable solution therefore access All-on-4 privately. Choosing a private Sheffield practice also means continuity of care: the same clinician plans, places, and restores the case, and reviews are handled in the practice that delivered the treatment.
Sheffield's All-on-4 Tooth Implant
“Teeth in a day” refers to fitting a fixed provisional bridge on the same day the implants are placed, not the final bridge. Immediate loading is only possible when the implants achieve sufficient stability at placement, which is assessed during surgery. Suitable Sheffield patients can typically leave on the day of surgery with a fixed temporary bridge, avoiding a removable denture phase. The definitive, final bridge is fitted after a healing and osseointegration period of approximately three to six months, once the implants have integrated with the bone. In clinical practice, most adjustments and minor concerns after surgery occur in the first weeks and are manageable at routine reviews.
You can see a documented Sheffield full arch outcome in the twelve-month review of a full arch implant outcome on our case page.
All-on-4 may suit Sheffield patients when most or all teeth in an arch are failing, missing, or supporting an unstable denture. Suitability is reduced — or treatment deferred — in the presence of uncontrolled diabetes, current intravenous bisphosphonate therapy, recent head and neck radiotherapy, heavy active smoking, or uncontrolled gum disease. Severely reduced bone in the front of the jaw may also make tilted-implant placement unsuitable without additional planning. A CBCT scan and clinical examination are required to confirm candidacy. Many patients who enquire about All-on-4 are not just asking what it is — they want to know whether it is the right direction for their specific situation, which is exactly what the consultation is designed to answer.
Deepcar Dental Care is located at 334 Manchester Rd, Deepcar, Sheffield S36 2RH, with on-site parking and straightforward road access from northern Sheffield and the Stocksbridge corridor. All stages of All-on-4 treatment — consultation, CBCT, surgery, provisional bridge, final bridge, and follow-up reviews — are delivered at the same Sheffield practice, under the care of Dr Ibraheem Ijaz. The practice is registered with the Care Quality Commission (CQC No. 1-20307533335).
No — All-on-4 is not routinely available on the NHS anywhere in the UK, including Sheffield. NHS implant provision is reserved for exceptional clinical cases via hospital referral. Sheffield patients who want fixed full arch teeth typically access All-on-4 privately, as we provide at our Deepcar practice.
Most Sheffield All-on-4 cases involve planning and CBCT imaging, one surgical day with a provisional fixed bridge fitted the same day, and the final bridge fitted after approximately three to six months of healing. Exact timings depend on individual healing and case complexity, which is why we confirm your schedule at consultation.
Patients often ask this after reading conflicting information online, and the variation is real because same-day loading depends on the individual case. In most suitable cases, a fixed provisional bridge is fitted on the day of surgery, so you do not leave with gaps or a removable denture.
All-on-4 at our Sheffield practice starts from around £12,000 per jaw, with the final figure confirmed after consultation and CBCT. Finance is available through Tabeo — up to 18 months interest-free, or up to 60 months at 10.9% APR representative, subject to status.
Patients often tell us they prefer the continuity of seeing the same clinician throughout treatment, the on-site parking, and the shorter journey from the northern Sheffield suburbs. All surgical and restorative stages are completed in the same S36 practice by Dr Ibraheem Ijaz.
