What Are All on 4 Implants?
All on 4 is a process of implanting artificial teeth. The All on Four implant system is fast and will make sure that the patient is placed with temporary or permanent hybrid work on the same day. (Hybrid work is a fixed prosthetic consisting of dental crowns and artificial gingiva-pink ceramics that mimics the patient’s gum.) After the surgical part is completed, prosthetics are followed. Hybrid work adapts to mounted implants, and they are fixed with micro screws, and then the work on aesthetics may proceed so that the patient will have artificial teeth that are almost no different in comparison to the real ones.
Benefits on All on 4 Implants
In addition to looking natural and feeling like your teeth, implants will replace missing teeth without the need for grinding the surrounding teeth, as with traditional implants. In the long run, implants preserve bone integrity. In all on 4 techniques, the contact surface between the lateral implant and the jawbone is larger. The jaw bone is better maintained, and the risk is minimized. All on 4 allows us to avoid expensive and complicated methods of bone replacement such as sinus lift.
How are they different from dentures?
One of the biggest problems in dentistry is how to achieve stability with total dentures in the mandible (lower jaw). Most patients with a total prosthesis are dissatisfied with their function, and many keep it in a glass – they do not wear it at all because it is not functional. The All on 4 concept is a minimally invasive prosthetic solution with a fixed complete dental arch in dental patients. The fixation of the dental arch is done by screwing the work on 4 multi-units connected with 4 implants that are installed with a unique technique prescribed by this concept.
What should patients expect?
Getting used to it is extremely easy, and the feeling of not having a prosthesis and “having nothing over your palate” is fantastic. The aesthetics are excellent, and the prosthetic work is fixed. Before the procedure, the patient must take a 3D image jaw screening. An expert team of dentists will make a comprehensive analysis of the bones of both jaws as soon as possible and present to the patient the best quality prosthetic solution.
The disadvantages are practically non-existent, except that the patient has to pay more attention to hygiene. It is necessary to schedule a check with your dentist at least once a year when it is possible to remove the work, check the implants and their stability and return them. In dentistry, this type of work is the most complex but provides maximum comfort to the patient.
