All-on-4 Dental Implants is a renowned implantology treatment method established since 1998. The technique's concept is to restore full row of teeth appearance using just four implants equally distributed within one arch.

All-on-4 Dental Implants is a permanent solution for patients whom are lacking teeth (edentulous), may be caused by tooth decay or gum disease known as periodontitis. This could help patients to regain perfect smiles along with confidence.

All-on-4 Dental Implants utilises minimal implants to anchor the full arch prothesis for the complete teeth appearance. The treatment method does not depend on bone grafting as the placement of the two implants at the back are meant to be tilted about 30 degrees, enabling the fusion of implants with the available bones.

The procedure for All-on-4 Dental Implants lasts about 2 to 4 hours, this includes extraction of the remaining tooth/teeth and the placement of implants. A temporary bridge (prosthesis) will normally be secured to the implants on the same day, occasionally on the next morning.

The healing period from the placement of temporary bridge until the final fitting of permanent prothesis takes about 6 months or as deemed ready by the dentist through the monitoring processes. During the 6 months of healing period, follow-up visits are mandatory for 10 days, 2 months, 4 months, and 6 months with no additional charges. Professional cleaning of the temporary bridge and thorough assessment on the condition of tissues and implants would be performed.

However, as healing progresses, the contraction of the soft tissues may create a gap between the bridge and the gum; the implant hygienist would determine if relining (addition of acrylic to the bridge to adjust its fit) is necessary.

Patients can indicate their preference for the material of prothesis to be placed, such as titanium bar with acrylic teeth, or a full-ceramic bridge. The full-ceramic bridge can only be used for just one dental arch due to its weight. Alternatively, a screw-retained bridge can also be served as the final restoration.

The implants and prothesis can last at least 10 years or even longer with good hygiene and regular checkups.

· A consultation and diagnostic tests such as CBCT scan are required in order for the dentist to evaluate the patient's oral condition and outline the treatment plan options.
· The patients have to prepare themselves preliminary to the procedure by undergoing a series of tests as provided by the receptionists, mainly includes, but are not limited to, vitamin B12, vitamin D, calcium, magnesium, iron, fasting glucose, cholesterol, as well as TSH, FT3, and FT4.
· Prior to the procedure, dental hygiene sessions are essential to help minimise the risk of inflammation. On top of it, dental physiotherapy would be performed to ease the process by improving jaw mobility and reducing muscle tension.
· Patients may be requested to change or stop some medications that could affect the procedure. Also, patients may also be prescribed with some medications to take before and after the procedure.
· Patients should rest well the night before the procedure.
· Comfortable clothing should be preferred on the day of the procedure.
· A light breakfast is recommended prior to the procedure.
· Avoid wearing makeup; men are advised to shave their facial hair to prevent unexpected infections.

Q1: Is the treatment painful?
A1: The level of pain depends on various factors, such as the inflammation present in the oral cavity. Rest assured that the clinic would try their best to accommodate for comfortable experience as much as possible.

A2: Some patients may experience swelling after the procedure; if swelling occurs, it would gradually subside within 7 to 10 days.

Q3: What are the implants made of?
A3: Most implants are made of pure titanium or titanium alloys. Titanium is preferred for its quality as being exceptionally biocompatible.

Q4: Any specific toothpaste I should use after the procedure?
A4: Toothpaste for gum care is recommended, as it supports the healing of the soft tissues, especially in the case of inflammation.

Q5: Can I board the flight after the procedure?
A5: Yes, there is no restriction in boarding the flight after the procedure.

Q6: Can I undergo MRI scan after the procedure?
A6: Yes, as implants are not ferromagnetic; however, removal of the bridge may be required prior to some scanning.

Q7: How should I take care of oral cavity right after the procedure?
A7: A post-procedure package will be provided, inclusive of items such as soft toothbrush, toothpaste, and chlorhexidine rinse.

Improve on harder food options depending on your comfort.

Q9: When can I use water flosser?
A9: You can use water flosser about two weeks after the procedure with low pressure and gradually increase the intensity over time. A water flosser aids in removing food debris from under the bridge.
