Is it possible to use a prosthesis with the All on 4 that would not have fake gums? What are gumless prosthesis called?

iwearsocks
I really want traditional implants because I want the true feel of real teeth. Unfortunately, the All on 4 procedure it my best option (2 opinions). My fear is that I will never get the feel of real teeth because the gums are fake and there is a gap between the implants and gums. To me, the All on 4 prosthesis choices are closer to dentures than they are to traditional implants. Is it possible to have "gumless" teeth that would fit and feel like real teeth? ** I will actually get all on 6
