What are All-on-4 dental implants?
The All-on solutions involve a dental treatment to help someone reconstruct the teeth that have all been lost in one or both jaws.

During the treatment dental implants are used that integrate into the jaw. The procedure is to imitate the pressure applied to them by the teeth. The fixed bridge is then attached to these implants. The name “All on” comes from the fact that the complete bridge is attached to 4, 6 or 8 implants depending on the procedure. Imagine that all your teeth are connected and have only 4, 6 or 8 roots that go into your jaw. This means that there is no need for an implant for every missing tooth.

The concept of All-on solutions is that all teeth on the upper or lower jaw can be rehabilitated with only one oral surgery. There are 4, 6 or 8 implants and a fixed bridge without bone augmentation.

Distance, angle and depth are specifically determined whilst placing the implants in the jaw.

All-on-4 dental implants Procedure
Prior to All-on-4 dental implant procedure starts with a CT scan that will be taken in all cases, which will be needed during consultation with our dental implant specialist and for the accurate determination of the implant positions. The written treatment plan is created based on this.

After a successful trial, a temporary prosthesis or even a fixed bridge will be made within a few working days after the implantation, if allowed by the situation. This way, the patient can quickly get teeth, optimally return to his usual lifestyle, laugh confidently again, eat normally again and chew heavily during meals.Approximately 3 months after implantation, the temporary teeth are exchanged for the final bridge.After the implants are installed in the bone, the final bridge is attached to the implants.
