You Don’t Have to Live With Tooth Loss

Living in the modern world offers the advantage of overcoming the stigma and challenges of tooth loss. With about 175 million people affected, a number expected to rise, the demand for tooth replacement has driven advancements in dental implants. While traditional implants are effective, they aren't always practical for everyone. In such cases, the All-on-4® procedure can provide a more viable and convenient solution.

What is All-on-4®?

All-on-4® is a minimally invasive procedure that uses just four implants to support a full arch of fixed, non-removable replacement teeth. This method eliminates the need for multiple surgeries and allows for a complete set of teeth to be placed in a single appointment under local anesthesia. It’s an ideal solution for patients who have lost all their teeth or need to have remaining teeth extracted, offering a natural-looking and functional result.

Who Should Get All-on-4®?

Anyone who has lost teeth and wants a permanent, attractive set of replacement teeth can benefit from dental implants. The All-on-4® system is especially suitable for those already using dentures or missing multiple teeth, and for individuals lacking the bone density, time, or budget for multiple individual implants. This procedure is faster and more cost-effective than traditional implants, offering a full, functional smile.

Who Should Get All-on-4®?

All-on-4® implants offer several advantages over dentures. They are cared for like natural teeth, requiring daily brushing, and function similarly, allowing patients to eat a wide variety of foods without restriction. Unlike dentures, All-on-4® implants don’t need to be removed for cleaning and don’t involve uncomfortable wires or brackets. They enable patients to bite with up to 70% more force and resist temperature sensitivity. Additionally, All-on-4® implants look like natural teeth and prevent jawbone deterioration by stimulating bone growth, which helps restore facial structure and combat resorption. Many patients notice improvements in their facial appearance as a result.
