Benefits Of All-On-4

Dental Implants

1- Cost Efficient

With the all-on-4 dental implants replaces a full jaw of teeth, it only uses 4 dental implants. With traditionally methods you may need around 8 to 10 dental implants for a full jaw restoration. This considerably saves costs for you.

2- No Bone Grafting

Typically after losing teeth your jawbone loses bone density and becomes weak. This means that your dentist can’t immediately place the implant. So to add some strength to your jaw bone, you have to opt for bone grafting. This surgical procedure involves taking bone tissue from any area in the body and transferring it into the jawbone. The process requires 3 to 4 months of healing.

Which is a long period of time. The All-On-4 dental implants skip this process by having the unique inclined placement of rear implants.

Instead of the last two implants going horizontally, they are installed at an angle of 30°. This allows the jawbone to withstand the implant without the need for a bone graft.

3- Shorter Treatment Time

Typically, the entire procedure of implant placement followed by the placement of dentures is done in one sitting.

4- Natural Looking Results

Unlike dentures, all-on-4 dental implants have anchor and durable stability. They look and feel natural.

All-On-4 Dental Implants Procedure

The all-on-4 dental implants involves a minor surgery where your dentist drills through your gums to expose your jaw bone. Next comes the placement of the implants. Two dental implants will be implanted at an angle of 30° on each side of the jaw. And two implants will be near the front and placed vertically.

After placing all the dental implants your doctor will immediately install your temporary dentures. After sometime and when your implants heal, your dentist will place your permanent dentures.
