All-on-4 in Portugal
Fixed full-arch teeth on four implants — often in a single day — from €5,000 per arch in Lisbon. The treatment that saves international patients the most, done by a clinic that has cared for patients since 1989.
What All-on-4 costs in Portugal vs the UK
All-on-4 replaces a full arch of missing or failing teeth with a fixed bridge supported by just four implants. It's the single biggest saving in dental tourism.
| Stage | Portugal | United Kingdom |
|---|---|---|
| Surgery + immediate bridge (per arch) | €5,000–9,000 | — |
| Full definitive (zirconia, per arch) | €8,000–12,000 | £18,000–35,000 |
A UK patient having both arches done in zirconia — quoted around £30,000 in London — typically saves €18,000-22,000, even after flights and accommodation.
Fixed teeth, often in a single day
The All-on-4 protocol was developed in Lisbon in the 1990s. Two implants are placed vertically at the front and two angled at the back, avoiding the sinus and nerve — which usually removes the need for bone grafting. With immediate loading, a fixed temporary bridge is fitted the same day. You leave with teeth.
How the trips work
- Visit 1 (5-7 days): assessment, 3D CT scan, any extractions, All-on-4 surgery, fixed temporary bridge
- Between visits (3-6 months): healing, with remote follow-up by video call
- Visit 2 (2-3 days): final prosthesis fitted
Important: never fly less than 5-7 days after All-on-4 surgery. We always plan around your return flight.

How much does All-on-4 cost in Portugal?
€5,000-9,000 per arch for surgery with an immediate temporary bridge, plus the final prosthesis. A full definitive All-on-4 in zirconia typically totals €8,000-12,000 per arch — versus £18,000-35,000 in the UK.
Can I really get fixed teeth in one day?
Yes. With immediate loading, four implants are placed and a fixed temporary bridge is fitted the same day or the day after. The final prosthesis is fitted after 3-6 months of healing.
How long do I need to stay in Portugal?
Plan 5-7 days for the first visit. A second short visit of 2-3 days places the final prosthesis after healing. Never fly less than 5-7 days after surgery.
Will I need a bone graft?
Usually not — the angled placement of the back implants is designed to use available bone and avoid grafting. Severe bone loss may require All-on-6 or other options. Only a 3D CT scan can confirm your case.
