This procedure is becoming the preferred alternative to a full denture. All-on-4™ works by placing two of the four dental implants at such an angle that the bridge is supported by the implants at the front of the mouth where your jawbone is denser and stronger.

One of the many benefits of the All-on-4™ dental implant treatment is that you can have a full set of non-removable, replacement teeth in just three to four appointments as quickly as 4-6 days.

If you have been missing teeth for a period of time, it’s quite possible that you have lost some bone density. Previously, patients would have needed to undergo bone graft surgery to restore the lost bone. This can take up to six months fully heal before the dental implants can be placed.

All-on-4™ is an excellent, fast system thanks to its ability to support a full denture (bridge) based only on four titanium implants. These implants act as “pillars” to the bridge that supports the prosthetic teeth, allowing them to utilise your existing bone and avoid the need for bone grafts.

The new All-on-4™ technique significantly reduces the number of dental implants that were previously required for securing a complete denture, giving patients the option to restore their smile much more quickly.
