All-on-Four Dental Implants

As the name suggests, All-on-Four treatment uses 4, or sometimes 6 implants to support a full arch of teeth – a great choice of treatment for patients with multiple missing teeth.

It’s also ideal if you’re looking to switch from dentures to a permanent tooth replacement solution, All-on-4 may be suitable. The 4-6 implants are strategically placed at a 30-45 degree angle in order to support the bridge that will provide tooth function, over the top.

What to expect from treatment with All-on-Four implants?

During an initial consultation, we will go through the details of treatment with you and ascertain your suitability for All-on-Four, answering any questions you might have. The implant placement process will be the same as in the case of getting a single dental implant. The 4 implants will be surgically placed into the jawbone at specific angles, in order for them to support the bridge that will sit on top and provide dental function. Once your implants have fused with your jawbone over a period of months, we can invite you back to the practice to have your custom-created bridge fitted.
