What are All-On-4 Dental Implants?

All-On-4 dental implants are a full-arch restoration solution that involves placing four dental implants strategically in the jaw to support an entire arch of teeth. This method is an ideal alternative to traditional dentures, providing improved stability, comfort, and aesthetics. Patients can receive a fully functional set of teeth on the same day as the surgery, eliminating the need for multiple appointments and temporary solutions.

Who is a Candidate for All-On-4 Implants?

All-On-4 is ideal for patients who:

• Are missing most or all teeth in an arch: Patients who have lost teeth due to decay, gum disease, or other factors can benefit from the stability of this full-arch solution.
• Want a more stable alternative to dentures: Unlike traditional dentures, All-On-4 implants provide a permanent solution that doesn’t slip or shift.
• Have sufficient jawbone for implant support: Even patients with some bone loss may be eligible, as All-On-4 requires less bone density compared to traditional implant placement.

Our team will conduct a comprehensive evaluation, using advanced imaging such as the i-CAT™ Cone Beam Scanner to assess bone health and determine if All-On-4 is the best option.

Benefits of All-On-4 Dental Implants

All-On-4 dental implants offer numerous advantages, including:

• Same-Day Transformation: Patients can enjoy a fully functional and natural-looking smile on the day of surgery, making All-On-4 a convenient option.
• Stability and Comfort: The implants are securely anchored to the jawbone, eliminating the discomfort and movement issues associated with traditional dentures.
• Bone Health Preservation: Dental implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing the bone loss that typically occurs with missing teeth.
• Long-Term Solution: All-On-4 implants are designed to last, with proper care offering a lifetime of improved oral health and confidence.‍
• Enhanced Aesthetics: The customized prosthetic teeth look and feel like natural teeth, giving patients a beautiful smile they can feel proud of.

The All-On-4 Procedure

1. Consultation and Planning: During your initial consultation, our team will discuss your goals and evaluate your oral health. We may recommend bone grafting if additional support is needed. Advanced imaging technology, including the i-CAT™ Cone Beam Scanner, allows us to create a personalized treatment plan with precise implant placement.
2. Preparation and Anesthesia: On the day of the procedure, we provide Anesthesia & IV Sedation to ensure comfort throughout the surgery.
3. Implant Placement and Prosthetic Attachment: Four implants are strategically placed in the jaw. Once positioned, a custom-made prosthetic arch is attached to the implants, providing patients with a fully functional and aesthetically pleasing smile.‍
4. Healing and Follow-Up: After the initial healing period, our team may recommend Platelet Rich Fibrin (PRF) to speed up recovery and enhance tissue regeneration. Regular follow-ups help ensure proper healing and long-term implant success.
