All on 4 implant

All on 4 implant

All-on-4 dental implants are an innovative solution for individuals who have lost most or all of their teeth. This technique allows for the replacement of a full arch of teeth using only four strategically placed implants. This method provides a stable and long-lasting alternative to traditional dentures, improving both function and aesthetics.

What Are All-on-4 Dental Implants?

All-on-4 is a dental implant procedure developed to maximize the use of available bone and provide patients with a new set of teeth in a single day. The name "All-on-4" refers to all teeth being supported on four dental implants.

Benefits of All-on-4 Implants

  1. Immediate Results: Patients receive a full set of functional and aesthetic teeth immediately after the procedure.
  2. Bone Preservation: Implants stimulate bone tissue, preventing bone loss and preserving facial structure.
  3. Stability and Comfort: Unlike traditional dentures, All-on-4 implants are fixed in place, providing a secure and comfortable fit.
  4. Improved Quality of Life: With All-on-4 implants, patients can enjoy their favorite foods, speak confidently, and smile without worry.

Procedure Overview

  1. Consultation and Planning: The process begins with a thorough examination, including 3D imaging to assess the patient's bone structure and plan the precise placement of the implants.
  2. Implant Placement: On the day of the surgery, four implants are strategically placed in the jaw. Two implants are placed vertically in the front of the jaw, and two are placed at an angle in the back to maximize contact with the bone.
  3. Temporary Prosthesis: A temporary set of teeth is attached to the implants on the same day, allowing the patient to leave the clinic with a functional smile.
  4. Healing Period: Over the next few months, the implants will integrate with the bone (osseointegration). During this time, patients should follow a soft food diet and maintain good oral hygiene.
  5. Final Prosthesis: Once healing is complete, the temporary teeth are replaced with a permanent, custom-made set that fits perfectly and looks natural.

Aftercare and Maintenance

  1. Oral Hygiene: Maintain good oral hygiene by brushing and flossing regularly to keep the implants clean.
  2. Regular Check-ups: Visit your dentist for regular check-ups and cleanings to ensure the health of your implants and gums.
  3. Healthy Lifestyle: Avoid smoking and excessive alcohol consumption, as they can negatively affect the health of your implants.
