All-on-4 / full-arch cost calculator
Estimate what a full-arch (All-on-4) restoration will cost you after any insurance or rebate.
A full-arch All-on-4 restoration in Australia typically costs $20,000–35,000 per arch, and most patients pay around $27,500 (research to 7 Sept 2026). That usually covers four to six implants, surgery, a provisional bridge fitted within a day or two and the final bridge months later. Extractions, sedation and any bone grafting are often quoted separately, and there is no Medicare rebate for adults.

What affects the cost
- Whether the quote is per arch or for both arches, and whether extractions are included.
- The material of the final bridge, with acrylic on titanium at the lower end and zirconia at the top.
- Whether four or six implants are placed and whether any are angled to avoid grafting.
- Sedation or general anaesthetic, and whether that is done in the practice or a hospital.
- Whether a specialist team or a single general dentist provides the surgery and the prosthetics.
- Whether the provisional bridge and later relines or adjustments are included in the fee.
How this is calculated
- Total = arches (1 or 2) × fee + extractions and sedation (total).
- Out-of-pocket = total − insurance or rebate.
- Ranges come from fees published by private practices in each country (research to 7 Sept 2026). An examination and written treatment plan are needed for an exact fee.
Insurance and rebates in Australia
Medicare does not cover full-arch implant treatment. Top-tier extras policies pay something towards the implant and prosthetic item numbers under major dental, but the annual limit is usually a small fraction of a full arch, so the rebate rarely exceeds a few thousand dollars. If teeth are removed under general anaesthetic in a private hospital, hospital cover may pay the hospital and anaesthetist fees even though the dental work itself is not covered.
Frequently asked questions
Is All-on-4 cheaper than replacing every tooth with an implant?
Yes, considerably. Four to six implants support a whole arch, so you avoid the cost of ten or more individual implants and crowns. It also avoids most bone grafting because the rear implants are angled into denser bone.
Will I have teeth on the day of surgery?
Usually a fixed provisional bridge is fitted within a day or two of surgery. The final, stronger bridge is made after three to six months of healing, and that second bridge is part of the quoted fee at most practices.
What ongoing costs should I expect?
Professional cleaning around the implants once or twice a year, and eventually a replacement bridge; acrylic bridges typically last 5 to 10 years, zirconia longer. Budget for these when comparing All-on-4 with dentures.
Am I a candidate if I have been told I have lost bone?
Often, yes. All-on-4 was designed for jaws with bone loss, using the front of the jaw where bone is thicker. A CBCT scan is needed to confirm, so ask for one before committing to a quote.
Does the quote include removing my remaining teeth?
Not always. Extractions, sedation and any temporary denture are commonly itemised separately, which is why this calculator has a field for them. Ask for a single all-inclusive figure in writing.
