A Veteran-Owned Practice With Master-Level Implant Credentials
Dr. Jeremiah C. Davis served as a captain in the U.S. Army’s 82nd Airborne Division before founding The Teeth Doctors™. The 82nd Airborne is headquartered at Fort Liberty; the practice now sits about five miles from the main gate.
His credentials in implant dentistry are among the rarest held by any provider in North Carolina or the country:
- DDS, UNC Chapel Hill School of Dentistry.
- MBA, UNC Kenan-Flagler Business School.
- Master of the Academy of General Dentistry (MAGD), held by less than 2 percent of general dentists in the US and Canada.
- Master of the International Congress of Oral Implantologists (MICOI).
- Master of the Academy of Osseointegration (AO).
- Fellow of the American Academy of Implant Dentistry (FAAID).
- Diplomate of the American Board of Oral Implantology (DABOI/ID), held by only eight dentists in the state of North Carolina.
- Surgical Master of the Interdisciplinary Dental Education Academy, held by only eight dentists in the entire United States.
- Dawson Academy Scholar.
In 2021, Incisal Edge magazine named him to its "40 Under 40" list of America’s best young dentists.
For a procedure where the operator dictates the result, that depth of credentialing is the foundation of the practice.
Why This Practice for the Military Community
A few factors specific to patients connected to Fort Liberty:
A provider who served
Dr. Davis is one of the few oral implant specialists in the region who has actually served in the military. That changes the conversation around expectations, scheduling, and follow-through.
Continuity of care for spouses and dependents
The practice also handles family dentistry, so military families can have all of their dental care under one roof rather than splitting between providers.
Experience with the patient base
Patients from Fort Liberty, Pope Field, Spring Lake, and the surrounding military community have been part of the practice for years. The systems and rhythms for working with this audience are already in place.
What All-On-Four Is and Who It Is For
All-On-Four places four titanium implants per arch at specific angles in your jawbone and anchors a fixed prosthesis to those four implants. The prosthesis stays in your mouth all the time. You brush it like teeth. You eat what you want. You do not take it out at night.
It is the right procedure if you have lost most or all of the teeth in an arch, if you are wearing a denture you do not like, if you are facing full-mouth extractions and considering what comes next, or if you have been told elsewhere that you do not have enough bone for traditional implants. All-On-4 often works in cases where standard implants do not, because the angled placement uses denser bone in the front of the jaw.
Your Treatment Timeline (Including PCS Considerations)
Total treatment time from your initial consultation to the final prosthesis runs about four to six months. Here is what each phase looks like.
Free Consultation
90 minutes. Cone-beam CT imaging, full exam, treatment plan, exact cost estimate, and a review of financing options. The consultation is free.
Surgery and Same-Day Teeth
Implants placed and temporary prosthesis fitted in a single visit. Three to four hours per arch. IV sedation requires a driver.
Healing Window
Three to six months for the implants to fuse with your jawbone. Temporary prosthesis worn throughout. Brief check-ins along the way.
Final Prosthesis
Permanent prosthesis fitted once fusion is complete. Twice-yearly maintenance from this point on.
A note on PCS orders during treatment
We have worked with active-duty patients who received unexpected orders mid-treatment. If this happens to you, we coordinate records transfer with your new duty station’s dental provider and supply clear documentation of what was placed, where, and what remaining steps are needed. The fixed prosthesis design accommodates this kind of transfer better than treatments that require many provider-specific visits.
What All-On-4 Costs
Fixed Acrylic, Starting at $20,000 per Arch
Includes complete oral evaluation, cone-beam CT scan, four implants, the fixed acrylic bridge, and the full course of care.
Fixed Zirconia, Starting at $30,000 per Arch
Same components, with a zirconia prosthesis substituted. Zirconia is more durable and visually closer to natural enamel.
Payment paths:
- Dental insurance benefits where applicable, including TRICARE Dental Program where coverage applies.
- CareCredit financing across 24 to 60 months for the patient share.
- Friends and Family Membership Plan, our in-house option for patients without insurance.
Rather than make blanket claims about what your specific TRICARE plan or VA referral covers, we verify your benefits before treatment so you know your exact out-of-pocket cost before any work begins. The consultation is the right place to bring your benefits paperwork.
Sedation Options
IV sedation, oral sedation, or local-only. Most patients pick IV sedation for All-On-4 surgery; the procedure runs three to four hours per arch, and being asleep for it is generally the more comfortable experience. Oral sedation is a lighter option. Local anesthesia is administered in every case regardless. IV sedation requires you to have a driver.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: I am active duty. Can I get All-On-4 done before a PCS or deployment?
Yes, depending on timing. The full treatment runs four to six months. If you have at least that much time at your current duty station, we can complete treatment locally. If you have less time, we can stage the work: surgery and temporary prosthesis here, with the final prosthesis fitted at your new location through a documented hand-off. The consultation is where we figure out the right path based on your specific timeline.
Q: Does TRICARE cover All-On-4?
TRICARE Dental Program coverage for implants depends on your specific enrollment status and the medical necessity of your case. Rather than quote percentages that may not apply to your plan, we verify your benefits before treatment so you know exactly what is covered. Bring your TRICARE information to your consultation.
Q: I am a retiree on a VA community-care referral. Can you handle that?
Yes. We work with veterans referred through VA community care for cases the VA does not handle in-house. Bring your referral paperwork to your consultation and we will verify coverage and coordinate with the VA on your case.
Q: How is this practice different from the on-post dental clinic?
On-post military dental clinics are excellent for routine and emergency care for active-duty service members. Full-arch implant work like All-On-4 is generally not performed on-post and typically requires off-post specialty referral. This practice provides that specialty depth in close geographic proximity, with a provider who has been part of the military community.
Q: What if I retire or separate during treatment?
Treatment continues regardless of service status changes. Once you are a patient, you are a patient. We adjust the financing and benefits side based on whatever your status is at the time of each phase.
Q: Can my appointments be flexible around training schedules?
Yes. We accommodate scheduling around active-duty training calendars and PCS dates wherever possible. The brief check-in visits during the healing window are easier to schedule than the surgery day, which requires a full block. Let us know your constraints at the consultation and we will work them in.
Q: Do you offer any discount or recognition for active-duty service members?
We respect what military service involves. Specific discount programs change from time to time, so the most accurate answer is to ask at the consultation, when we can also walk through the benefits-coordination side for your exact situation (TRICARE, VA referrals, or out-of-pocket pricing with CareCredit).
Schedule Your Consultation
The All-On-4 decision is too important to make from a webpage. The consultation is where you see your own imaging, ask the questions specific to your case, and decide whether the procedure and the practice fit you.
