Why McCordsville Residents Choose SmileCentric for All-on-Four

McCordsville sits northeast of Indianapolis -- close enough to I-69 that Carmel is a reasonable 20-to-25-minute drive, but far enough that most residents expect to commute for specialist-level care. SmileCentric makes that commute worth it. The practice focuses specifically on implant and cosmetic dentistry, Dr. Louis Abukhalaf trained at the Misch Implant Institute and the Kois Center, and the office uses the Yomi robotic guidance system -- a technology available at only a handful of Indianapolis-area practices.

If you are in McCordsville and researching All-on-Four, here is what you need to know about the practice, the provider, and the process.

Dr. Louis Abukhalaf -- Specialist Training in Implant and Restorative Dentistry

Dr. Abukhalaf graduated summa cum laude from Loyola University Chicago with a degree in chemistry and biochemistry, then completed dental school at Marquette magna cum laude. His post-graduate training includes both the Misch Implant Institute -- a surgical implantology program -- and the Kois Center, which focuses on evidence-based restorative dentistry and occlusion. For All-on-Four patients, the Kois training is particularly relevant: it addresses how a full-arch prosthesis should function under load, how to design a bite that doesn't break down over time, and how to plan cases for long-term stability.

Yomi Robotic Guidance: Consistent Precision Every Time

Yomi is an FDA-cleared robotic guidance system. During implant surgery, it provides haptic (force) feedback that physically keeps the surgical handpiece on the pre-planned path. For All-on-Four cases -- where four implants must sit at precise angles to support an entire arch -- this reduces placement variability and supports better bone-to-implant contact.

Your All-on-Four Process at SmileCentric

Step 1: Consultation

Your first appointment covers goals, health history, digital X-rays, and a 3D CBCT scan when indicated. The scan maps bone volume, nerve paths, and sinus anatomy -- the data Dr. Abukhalaf uses to build your surgical plan. You get a candidacy assessment and clear pricing at the end of this visit.

Step 2: Planning and Surgery

Treatment is planned digitally before the procedure. Implant positions and angles are set in the planning software, and your provisional prosthesis is designed in advance. On surgery day, Yomi guides placement to the planned positions. Most eligible patients leave with provisional same-day teeth.

Step 3: Final Prosthesis and Maintenance

After osseointegration -- typically three to six months -- your permanent custom arch is fabricated. We fit, adjust, and deliver it across several appointments, checking your bite at each stage. We then set up a professional maintenance schedule to protect your investment.

McCordsville Patient FAQs

Will I be awake during surgery? Yes, unless you opt for deeper sedation. Most patients use local anesthesia plus nitrous oxide (laughing gas), which keeps you comfortable and aware but relaxed. General anesthesia is not standard for All-on-Four at SmileCentric. We discuss sedation options at your consultation.

How do I clean All-on-Four implants? The arch is fixed in place, so you cannot remove it. You clean underneath using a water flosser, implant-specific floss, and a soft-bristle brush. We walk you through the routine before you leave after surgery and again when your final arch is delivered.

What if I need extractions first? Extractions can often be completed during the same appointment as implant surgery, reducing the number of visits and healing phases. Dr. Abukhalaf determines this during treatment planning.
