The All-On-4(tm) approach uses tilted back implants to support the dental bridge as far back as possible without bone grafting on top of the nerves.
Advantages:
No jaw bone grafting is needed
The implants are placed into the lower portion of the jaw bone, where it is often the strongest and the widest to anchor and house the dental implants for the longivity of the dental implants and the dental prothesis
Only 4 dental implants are needed
Less number of dental implants and without bone grafting result in a reduced cost to patients
Reduced number of surgeries
Reduced healing time
Reduced cost but still has premium prosthetic bridge options
The tips of the tilted implants are in harder bone where implants do better
The tilted implants support the bridge as far back as possible to reduce cantilever
A fixed, non-removable, acrylic dental prosthesis (bridge) is placed the day of surgery, which provides a comfortable solution during your healing: immediate load protocol
A long lasting bridge is made with your dentist or us in about 6 months. This could be delayed a bit longer in some cases due to financial or other considerations
The prosthetic phrase of the treatment is therefore staged and allows patients in some cases to spread the financial cost over a period of time
