Will permanent All-on-4 be as bulky as the temporaries are?

alicynt
I had the all on four implants placed September 7th, top and bottom. I had temporaries placed on the same day. The temporaries are extremely bulky, with 1/2 palate in the roof of my mouth and under my tongue. Also, the screws go through this part as if they are going through the roof (and bottom) of my mouth. The example I was shown at my consult appointment had the screws going through the teeth and did not have this bulky palate like part to them. How should the permanents be?
