Questions & Answers
Who is the All-on-4 implant technique suitable for?
All-on-4 implant treatment is suitable for patients who do not have any systemic diseases, have sufficient bone volume, and are missing all their teeth.
How many sessions does the All-on-4 implant technique require?
Before the All-on-4 implant treatment, the specialist maxillofacial surgeon performs a detailed clinical and radiological examination. Measurements taken via tomography are used for the planning of the procedure.
The procedure has two phases. In the first session, 4 dental implants are inserted and a temporary prosthesis is applied on the same day. After 3 months, the patient receives the permanent dental prostheses.
What are the advantages of implant treatment compared to dental bridge treatment?
For bridges used to correct one or more missing teeth, it is necessary to prepare or reduce the size of the teeth located in front of and behind the empty space. However, in implant treatment, it is not necessary to interfere with adjacent teeth since only one implant is placed where the missing tooth was, so the adjacent teeth are not damaged.
Is the All-on-4 implant treatment painful?
As after any surgical intervention, there may be pain and swelling afterwards. If the medications and recommendations prescribed by the maxillofacial surgeon are followed carefully, recovery will be completed in a short time. If the patient wishes, the treatment can also be performed under sedation or general anesthesia.
