All-On-4 is an innovative dental implant that gives the full mouth a teeth restoration with using just 4 implants on top and 4 on the bottom as the main anchors.

Instead of having multiple dental implants performed on each tooth, All-On-4 focuses on just 4 tilted implants as the main sites to attach the whole full arch false teeth. As the implant is made of titanium, it has the unique ability to fuse to the living bone and function normally as part of it. With this, the implants become part of the jawbone and serve as the strong and long-lasting foundation of the patient's new teeth.

Other than keeping the implants in place, bone fusion can prevent future bone loss in the jaw. This effect aids to maintain youthful facial appearance and better oral health.

All-On-4 works like dental implants, but with fewer implants needed for the whole mouth teeth restoration. The procedure is unique as it can be performed graftless. A temporary fixed full-arch prosthesis can be inserted on the same day of surgery. Bone grafting is avoided for this procedure by tilting the posterior implants, utilizing available bones. There will be 2 straight anterior implants and 2 implants tilted up to 45 degrees in the posterior.

The permanent overdenture will be ready after 6 to 9 months of the surgery, made from porcelain and other high-quality and durable material. With the maintenance of good hygiene and regular checkups, All-On-4 can last up for 10 years or longer.
