Restoring more than a smile
A solution to a problem
Even decades after dental implant placement became an established method for restoring quality of life, many of those most in need of help were unable to bene t.
With such patients suffering from moderate to severe bone resorption, nding adequate bone to place implants is a challenge. There are nancial considerations too, as placing enough implants to restore a whole jaw could be cost prohibitive for many
patients.
The All-on-4® treatment concept provides edentulous and soon-to-be edentulous patients with a fixed full-arch prosthesis on four implants on the day of surgery. This quickly leads to improved patient satisfaction with regards to:
Function
Esthetics
Sense
Speech
Self-esteem
This makes it an attractive and potentially life-changing treatment option for patients.
Shorter time-to-teeth
Two key elements signi cantly reduce treatment complexity, the number of surgeries, and the overall treatment time:
1 Tilting of the posterior implants avoids the need for time-consuming bone grafting procedures
2 Immediate loading with a fixed provisional prosthesis shortens time-to-teeth
Lower costs
The All-on-4® treatment concept is not only the least time-consuming treatment option, it’s also the least costly in comparison with conventional implant treatment methods for the edentulous and soon-to-be edentulous jaw using two-stage surgery.2
