Discover more about All-On-4 Tooth Implants
All-On-4 Tooth Implant placement was pioneered by Portuguese dentist Dr. Paulo Malo in collaboration with Nobel Biocare and is one of the most successful methods available for missing tooth restoration. Utilizing computer simulation, biomechanics, clinical research and studies to find the most efficient way to restore either full lower or upper arch of teeth using All-On-4 Tooth Implants placement offers fast results without need for bone grafts or other temporary fixes.
What’s Involved?
Before determining if someone is eligible for All-On-4 Tooth Implants, your dentist will conduct an extensive evaluation. This may include taking impressions, measuring bone density and taking x-rays or CT scans. The procedure uses four implants placed back of mouth at an angled angle in order to maximize bone density in specific areas. All-On-4 implants were created with speed in mind – patients eligible for this procedure can have their implants fitted and an entire set of replacement teeth in just one appointment with their dentist!
Why Consider Implants for Missing Teeth?
Implants are an excellent solution to replace missing teeth in patients who wear dentures or require complete upper and/or lower restorations. The entire procedure – including placement of Tooth Implants and immediate dental restorations – can be completed in just one appointment, making this an ideal alternative for those who don’t have time to wait several months to enjoy their new smiles. Those without enough bone mass to support Tooth Implants also benefit from this procedure and don’t need to undergo extensive bone grafting techniques.
What Are The Advantages?
Patients can get their new teeth installed within one appointment, which is much quicker than traditional Tooth Implants which may take up to a year. Furthermore, there’s no need for bone grafts anymore regardless of whether there’s an issue causing a deficiency in bone mass. With Tooth Implants you don’t have to wait around between stages anymore – you get your new teeth immediately following installation plus there are no longer long waiting periods between phases!
What Are the Alternatives?
- Bone Grafts – This procedure may be utilized to increase bone volume in the jaw area, thus enabling tooth implants to be placed.
- Traditional Tooth Implants- Tooth implants can be used to reconstruct an entire arch. This procedure might necessitate bone grafts in order to increase bone density and support the implant, and is typically completed after several months so that all healing has taken place before any restorations can be placed.
- Dentures- Dentures offer a convenient solution to replace missing teeth without the need for Dental Implants.
