All on 4

What are All-on-4 dental implants?

“All-on-4” implantation is a modern solution for restoring the dentition in case of partial or complete edentia (absence of teeth). The treatment involves the installation of four implants in the jaw, which become a support for a fixed prosthesis. Due to the angular location of the artificial tooth roots, it is possible to bypass areas with insufficient bone tissue and avoid additional plastic surgery.

The “all-on-four” one-stage dental implantation technique is an alternative to removable systems and classic prosthetics, in which each artificial tooth is fixed on a separate implant. The technology allows us to restore the aesthetics of the smile and chewing function without long-term treatment. Astra Dent patients receive new teeth on the day of surgery, which speeds up adaptation and restores comfort in everyday life.

Who needs the All-on-4 system?

The All-on-4 implantation method is suitable for patients who have lost most or all of their teeth in the upper or lower jaw. It is a smart alternative to removable dentures that provides a natural look and feel of their own teeth. The technology is suitable for those who:

• Have significant tooth loss. Partial or complete edentia affects the quality of life, limiting the ability to eat, speak and smile normally.
• Suffer from periodontal disease or caries. Gum disease and tooth decay make classic prosthetics impossible, while All-on-4 allows you to restore the functionality of the oral cavity without complex interventions.
• Feel discomfort from removable dentures. Many patients complain of rubbing, instability of structures and the need to use fixing agents. Installing implants solves the problem forever.
• Do not have enough bone tissue for classic implantation. Due to the inclined location of the implants, there is often no need for bone grafting.
• Want a quick smile restoration. In most cases, temporary teeth are fixed on the day of surgery, which saves time and reduces psychological discomfort.

In addition to medical indications, “All-on-4” has economic and practical advantages. Implantation allows you to avoid waiting for months for osseointegration (engraftment) of the implant. For many patients, this is an opportunity to return a healthy smile without undergoing unpleasant and expensive procedures.

Advantages of All-on-4

The “All-on-4” technology opens up new opportunities for people who have lost most of their teeth and are looking for a reliable solution. Thanks to the unique method of fixing the structure, it is possible to restore the functionality of the dentition without installing a large number of implants. Among the advantages of the “all on four” technique, it is worth noting:

• Immediate results: a new smile in a day. In most cases, the temporary prosthesis is fixed immediately after installing the implants. There is no need to wait for osseointegration or undergo several surgical interventions. This is important for people who want to quickly restore the functionality of the dentition without prolonged rehabilitation.
• Cost-effectiveness compared to individual implants. The “All-on-4” method is cheaper than classic dental implantation. Instead of installing 8-12 implants, only four are enough. As a result, the costs of materials, the number and volume of surgical interventions are significantly reduced. Patients avoid bone grafting, which is often mandatory with classic implantation methods.
• Durability and natural appearance. The “all-on-four” system creates a reliable structure that lasts for decades. Implants are made of titanium – a strong and biocompatible material. Prostheses look natural, repeating the shape, color and texture of natural teeth.
• Improving oral health and quality of life. The absence of teeth negatively affects the aesthetics and health of the oral cavity. Due to complete or partial edentia, the bite changes, bone tissue atrophies, and problems with chewing and digestion arise. Implantation of “All-on-4” helps to avoid complications, improves pronunciation, comfort during eating and the overall level of self-confidence.

Due to its quick recovery, economic benefits and durability, “All-on-4” is the optimal choice for patients who want to get a stable solution without complex surgical intervention.

The step-by-step process of installing All-on-4

Implantation of the “All-on-4” system involves several stages. Each of them affects the final result, so following the dentist’s recommendations plays an important role in the adaptation and durability of the structure.

Initial consultation and planning

The treatment begins with a comprehensive diagnosis, which includes a number of studies to assess the condition of the oral cavity and prepare for implantation:

• Examination of the oral cavity and assessment of the condition of the jaw. A detailed examination of the dentition is performed, analysis of the temporomandibular joint, and the condition of the mucous membrane and bite is determined. The doctor focuses on assessing bone tissue – determines its density, thickness and level of atrophy.
• Computed tomography (CT) or orthopantomography (OPTG). 3D visualization allows us to model the location of future implants, determine fixation points and avoid areas with insufficient bone volume. In some cases, navigation surgery is used – an individual surgical template is created to position the structure without deviations from the given angle.
• Selection of the material and shape of the future prosthesis. At this stage, the type of prosthesis is selected: acrylic composite, metal-ceramic or zirconium base. The patient’s aesthetic wishes, shape and color of the teeth are taken into account. Thanks to digital modeling, you can see in advance what the final result will look like.

Planning is the basis of successful implantation. It ensures accuracy of installation, shortens the rehabilitation period and reduces risks after surgery.

Installation of implants and temporary prosthesis

Surgical intervention is performed under local anesthesia or sedation, which guarantees painlessness and comfort during the procedure:

• Fixation of implants in bone tissue. Four titanium rods are installed: two in the frontal area (vertically) and two in the lateral areas (at an angle of 30-45°). The angular arrangement allows for an even distribution of chewing load.
• Fixation of the temporary prosthesis. Immediately after the operation, a lightweight orthopedic prosthesis adapted for the healing period is fixed. It is made of acrylic composite to reduce the load on the implants in the first weeks after the intervention. The temporary structure allows the patient to speak, smile, and eat soft food on the day of the procedure.

After installing the temporary prosthesis, the doctor gives recommendations on care, dietary restrictions, and monitoring the condition of the oral cavity.

Healing period and installation of the final prosthesis

Over 3-6 months, titanium rods gradually grow together with the bone tissue, creating a stable base for the permanent prosthesis. In the first weeks after the operation, it is important to reduce chewing load and avoid mechanical stress on the implants. Patients are recommended:

• A soft diet. The optimal diet consists of pureed soups, yogurts, cereals, stewed vegetables, fish, and chopped meat. It is worth avoiding foods with high acidity (citrus fruits, carbonated drinks) and too hot or cold food.
• Regular oral hygiene. It is recommended to brush your teeth with a soft brush with minimal pressure on the gum line. Using dental floss or an irrigator helps remove food debris from hard-to-reach places.
• Using antiseptic mouthwashes. Antiseptics based on chlorhexidine or herbal extracts help reduce swelling, accelerate gum healing and reduce the risk of irritation. Rinse your mouth after each meal to remove bacteria and food debris, especially in places where the implants come into contact with the gums.

After the implants have fused with the jawbone, impressions are taken to make the final prosthesis. Final fixation is carried out using screw or cement fixation, which guarantees reliability and comfort of wearing.
