What is the All on Four Implant?
Who is suitable for All on Four Implant Treatment?
All on Four implants, also known as quadruple implants, are designed for patients experiencing complete tooth loss or severe tooth loss. They consist of a prosthesis fixed onto only four implants. They support a complete dental bridge, replacing missing teeth in either the upper or lower jaw. In All on Four implant treatment, two implants are placed perpendicularly in the front of the jawbone, while the other two are placed at an angle in the back. This method makes implant placement possible even in cases of insufficient bone density.
All on Four treatment is a solution for patients who have lost all their teeth or have experienced very severe tooth loss. It is also effective for patients who are uncomfortable with traditional removable dentures. In some cases, dentures can cause irritation and discomfort. For these patients, the teeth are fixed in place. It is also an ideal alternative for patients who cannot undergo classic implant treatment due to insufficient bone tissue.
Patients with reduced jawbone volume are generally not suitable for traditional implant procedures that require bone grafting. All on Four can be applied with minimal bone volume.
How is All on Four Implant Placement Performed?
The All on Four technique is a scientifically accepted technique that has been used for over 20 years. Two implants are placed at a 30-45 degree angle in the back of the jaw, supported by two implants added perpendicularly in the front. This avoids anatomical obstacles such as sinus cavities and the mandibular nerve. It increases the chance of creating a permanent prosthesis.
At the beginning of the All on Four treatment process, the patient’s oral health is examined in detail. The jawbone structure is evaluated with digital scans and X-ray images.
Then the implant placement procedure begins. During the surgical procedure, all four implants are placed in the jawbone. The procedure usually takes 1-2 hours and is performed under local anesthesia. Patients receive their temporary prostheses the same day. Temporary prostheses are used for 3-4 months while the implants fuse with the bone. At the end of this process, permanent prostheses are fitted to the patient.
What should I consider before getting an All-On-Four implant?
There are several important factors to consider before getting All On Four implants. First, a thorough dental examination is necessary. Your dentist will assess your oral health to determine if you are a suitable candidate for implant treatment. Oral hygiene, jawbone structure, and overall health are all factors that affect implant success. It’s also important to inform your doctor if you have any chronic health problems such as smoking, diabetes, or heart disease.
Considering these factors, which can affect the treatment process and post-treatment recovery, will shape your approach to treatment. In addition, obtaining detailed information about the procedure and aftercare is crucial; this will help you be better prepared for the treatment process. Finally, reviewing the cost of implant treatment and payment options will make budget planning easier.
