This is Cerf's pseudoisotopy implies isotopy theorem.
Cerf's result is true in high dimensions, while it's independently known in a low-dimensional range. In dimension 2 it goes back to Earle-Eells result that $\pi_0 Diff(S^2)$ has precise two components, and in dimension $3$ it is the analogous theorem of Cerf. But I think it's an open problem for n=4.
