All-on-4 Dental Implants

All-on-4 Dental Implants

The All-on-Four implant technique offers an advanced surgical solution for patients who have lost most or all of their teeth and are struggling with loose dentures. This approach replaces an entire arch of teeth in the upper or lower jaw (or both) using just four strategically positioned titanium dental implants. These implants are placed at specific angles to provide a stable base for a fixed full bridge. The bridge, anchored by the four implants, is designed to look natural, stay securely in place, and deliver the functionality and bite quality comparable to natural teeth.

Many of our patients who pursue All-on-4 dental implants have experienced significant tooth loss due to injury or deteriorating oral health. This often leads to feelings of self-consciousness and a lack of confidence in their smile. At Dente Dental Studio, our goal is to help you restore your self-confidence and smile with ease through our All-on-4 dental implants. We provide top-quality treatments at competitive prices at our Dente Dental Studio.

The All-on-4 Procedure

  • Step 1: Consultation The process begins with an initial consultation at our dental center, where you will meet with our specialist team, including a prosthodontist and oral surgeons. During this meeting, they will evaluate your suitability for the All-on-4 procedure, discuss the details of the treatment, and review your medical history. A CBCT scan will be performed to provide a detailed view of your jaw, muscles, and facial structures. This scan allows Dt.Dr. Nuri Ăśnal to thoroughly assess the condition of your jaws and the quality and quantity of your available bone.
  • Step 2: Implant Placement The All-on-4 procedure involves two main stages: the surgical placement of the implants and the dental prosthesis process. This procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia but can also be done with sedation or general anesthesia for patients with anxiety or severe fear.
  • Step 3: Recovery Post-surgery, it is essential to allow time for proper healing of the implants. Recovery from implant surgery can be painful, and pain levels vary among patients. Some may require prescription painkillers. Initially, you might experience minor gum bleeding, which should diminish within 1-2 days. Swelling may occur for 2-3 days, and medication will be prescribed to manage it. In some cases, the surgical area may turn black and then yellow as it heals.

Full healing, or osseointegration, takes about 3-6 months, during which new bone forms around the implants. To support this process, a temporary soft food diet will be recommended to prevent excessive force on the implants. Proper healing is crucial, as too much force can cause the implants to become loose or heal improperly. Once osseointegration is complete, your dentist will proceed with the fabrication of your permanent dentures.

What’s the difference between all on 4 and all on 6 dental implants?

If you’re considering the “All-on” dental procedure, you might be wondering about the differences between All-on-4 and All-on-6 implants. The primary distinction lies in the number of implants used: All-on-4 employs four implants, while All-on-6 utilizes six. The All-on-6 procedure generally offers a more robust and stable foundation for the prosthetic dental arch, potentially resulting in a longer-lasting and more comfortable smile. This extra stability helps distribute pressure more evenly during biting and chewing, which can extend the lifespan of your prosthetic arch.

Moreover, the additional implants in the All-on-6 procedure not only support your bite but also contribute to strengthening the surrounding bone. However, if you have insufficient bone density to accommodate the extra two implants, the All-on-4 option might be more suitable. To determine the best choice for your specific needs, we recommend consulting with our expert team at our dental center in Turkey, where a comprehensive examination of your jawbone will guide the decision.

What is the success rate of all-on-4 dental implants?

Published studies indicate that the All-on-4 treatment concept boasts a 98.2% success rate for dental implants on the lower arch and a 97-98% success rate on the upper arch. While this procedure is highly effective for many patients, it may not be suitable for everyone. Factors that can contribute to dental implant failure include periodontal disease, certain health conditions such as diabetes or inflammatory diseases, smoking, and issues related to implant placement.

How Long Do All-on-4 Implants Last?

At Dente Dental Studio, a common question from patients is how long All-on-4 implants will last. All-on-4 implants utilize the same technology as traditional implants. Titanium screws are placed in the jaw, where they are designed to fuse with the patient’s natural tissues through osseointegration. The key difference with All-on-4 implants is that only four implants are used, with the two back implants angled to maximize the use of remaining bone tissue. If the implants successfully fuse with the bone during the healing process, they are expected to have a similar lifespan to traditional implants. Most dental professionals agree that, with proper care, All-on-4 implants can last 20 years or more.

Who is the ideal candidate for All-on-4 Dental Implants?

The ideal candidate for the All-on-4 dental implant procedure at Dente Dental Studio is someone who currently wears dentures or will require dentures in the future. Age is not a limiting factor for All-on-4 dental implants, provided the candidate is in good overall health.

Benefits of All-On-4

How to clean All-on-4 dental implants?

Since maintaining good oral hygiene is crucial for the longevity of All-on-4 implants, it’s important to know how to keep them clean. Just like with natural teeth, you should brush twice daily and carefully use super floss around the implants to remove plaque and food particles. Additionally, using a water pick and an antibacterial mouth rinse can help keep your implants clean. It’s also essential to schedule professional cleaning appointments every three months to prevent issues that could affect the lifespan of your All-on-4 dental implants.

How to choose the right surgeon for All-on-4 procedure?

Choosing the right surgeon is crucial for the initial and long-term success of dental implants, including All-on-4 implants. Poorly executed dental implant procedures can result in complications such as nerve or tissue damage. Similarly, if a bone grafting procedure—where bone tissue is transferred from other parts of the body to the jaw to support an implant—is performed by an inexperienced dentist, it can lead to implant failure. This procedure is especially important for patients with insufficient bone tissue, who might otherwise be ineligible for implants.

Turkey, Hungary, and Poland are among the most popular countries for All-on-4 treatments, attracting thousands of American, German, English, and Scandinavian patients each year. Many clinics in these countries offer comprehensive packages that include not only the treatment but also accommodation and transfers, making the experience similar to a regular holiday package. The cost of All-on-4 treatments in Western European countries like the UK, Germany, France, Norway, or Denmark, as well as in the United States, can be 4-5 times more expensive than in Turkey.

If you are considering All-on-4 implants to address missing teeth, it is advisable to consult with specialist dentists at Dente Dental Studio. With over 15 years of experience in dentistry, Dt.Dr Nuri Ăśnal is highly knowledgeable in All-on-4 implants and can answer any questions you may have about the procedure.

What is the average cost of All-on-4 dental implants?

In the UK, the average cost for the complex All-on-4 treatment ranges from ÂŁ13,000 to ÂŁ16,000 per arch. For both jaws, the average full-mouth dental implant cost is around ÂŁ27,000. At Dente Dental Studio, the cost for All-on-4 implants ranges between ÂŁ4.999 and ÂŁ9.999, depending on the brand of implants used and whether bone grafting is required. Some patients may need additional bone placement, while others may need to wait for areas of infection to heal before implants can be placed. All fees will be thoroughly discussed during the consultation appointment before surgery.

When seeking a reputable dentist and high-quality treatment with good value materials, it’s important not to choose the cheapest option available but rather to research the dental practices and their pricing carefully. With the All-on-4 dental implant procedure at Dente Dental Studio, you can achieve permanent teeth and a lasting smile.
