What Is the All-on-4 Dental Implant Procedure?
The All-on-4 procedure is designed to efficiently restore missing or damaged teeth. Using just four implants to support a full arch, this method offers a durable, natural-looking solution that enhances both oral health and overall quality of life. Here’s a step-by-step overview:
1. Consultation and Treatment Planning
The process starts with an in-depth consultation. Your oral health is assessed, and digital scans and X-rays are taken to analyze jaw structure. A personalized treatment plan is then created based on these findings. This careful planning phase is essential for ensuring long-term success.
2. Implant Placement
Next, four titanium implants are placed into pre-planned positions in the jawbone under local anesthesia or sedation. Two implants are positioned in the front, and two are placed at an angle in the back for added support. Temporary prosthetic teeth are usually attached immediately. This allows you to leave the clinic with a functional smile the same day.
3. Recovery and Final Prosthetics
A healing period of 3 to 6 months follows as the implants integrate with the jawbone. During this time, proper oral care and follow-up visits are essential. Once healing is complete, your custom-designed permanent prosthetics are fitted. The result is a confident and lasting smile.
