Restore Your Smile and Prevent Bone Loss with All-on-4 Implants
A study by the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (1999-2004) found that 10% of adults aged 50-64 are fully edentulous, with 90% of these individuals opting for traditional removable dentures. While dentures provide a temporary solution, they don’t address one of the most serious consequences of tooth loss: jawbone resorption. Over time, the jawbone deteriorates without tooth roots to stimulate its growth. The only way to prevent this is by replacing the entire tooth, including the root. All-on-4 dental implants offer a fast, effective, and cost-efficient solution to replace a full row of teeth, providing both aesthetic and functional benefits. Unlike dentures, All-on-4 implants preserve the jawbone and prevent further bone loss. A 2011 Mayo Clinic Lisbon study showed that up to 98% of All-on-4 patients retained their implants after ten years, highlighting the long-term success and durability of this treatment.
What is All-on-4?
All-on-4 is a unique technique that uses a minimal number of dental implants to provide maximum support for patients. As the name suggests, the procedure typically involves just four implant posts. Two posts are placed vertically in the front of the jaw to support the front of the prosthetic, while a second set of two (or more, depending on the patient's jaw size) are placed at an angle toward the back of the mouth. Fewer incisions mean quicker healing, and with regular checkups to monitor recovery, a semi-permanent smile restoration can often be placed on the same day as the implants. After about six months, once the gums are fully healed and the implants have fused with the jawbone, a final, titanium-enforced set of teeth is created at no additional cost.
What Are the Advantages of All-on-4 Dental Implants?
- Fast – Many patients can receive semi-permanent replacement teeth on the same day as their implants, with the entire procedure usually completed within an hour. This means a brand-new set of teeth in just one visit.
- Effective – All-on-4 implants provide the structure and stability of a natural smile with just four implants. A recent study has proven their long-lasting durability.
- Easy to care for – Unlike dentures, All-on-4 implant-supported prosthetics are cared for like regular teeth, with patients brushing and flossing as usual.
- Safe – With fewer incisions, no need for bone grafting, and a quicker healing process, All-on-4 implants are a safe option for most patients.
- Budget-friendly – Since only four implant posts are required, All-on-4 implants are more affordable than traditional dental implants.
