In 1993, a new dental implant protocol was released to the world: the “All-On-4”. This protocol for fixed oral rehabilitation was innovated by Paulo Malo, a renowned dental implant specialists, in collaboration with Nobel Biocare, one of the world’s largest dental implant manufacturers. Since the technique’s debut, it has gone on to change the lives of countless people who were previously living without teeth and/or with inferior, uncomfortable technologies, such as removable partial and full dentures.

The “All-On-4” has gained immense popularity since the early 1990’s. Countless dentists are signing up for the training necessary to offer this dental implant protocol in their offices and millions of people all over the world are asking the same questions: “What is the All-On-4, how does it work and am I a candidate?”

In this four-part article series, an experienced teeth implants Arizona specialist provides us with the answers to all our questions and an in-depth look at the procedure behind the rehabilitated smiles of tens of thousands of previously toothless patients.

What is the “All-On-4”?

The “All-On-4” is a surgical guide for the placement of dental implants in patients who:

1. Have lost all or most of their teeth to gum disease,2. Who currently wear removable dentures (partials or full),3. Who have a failing dentition.

  • This surgical guide differs from traditional dental implant techniques in a number of ways,” explains a cosmetic dentist in Sun City. “These key differences are what has elevated the “All-On-4” to breakthrough status and has enabled oral surgeons to achieve the previously unheard of in the fields of fixed oral rehabilitation.”

So, how does the “All-On-4” differ to traditional approaches to teeth replacement using implants?

The Key Differences Between “All-On-4” and Traditional Protocols

  • The “All-On-4” typically only requires one procedure, during which four implants are placed per jaw,” explains the teeth implants specialist in Arizona. “A fully customized prosthetic dental bridge is then attached to these four implants, providing patients with a complete set of immediately functional and aesthetic teeth.”
  • Now compare this to traditional dental implant protocols, which could require as many as six, eight or even ten implants per jaw and multiple surgeries in order to provide patients with new teeth. Not only were these techniques far more traumatic and expensive, they could also take 12 to 18 months before patients could get teeth again! This is not even to mention the fact that patients would typically need to undergo bone grafting beforehand (to be explained in Part 3).”
  • The ‘All-On-4’ is without a doubt the most efficient method for the treatment of edentulism and a failing dentition in patients presenting with gum disease,” says the teeth implants specialist in Arizona.

Stay Tuned for Part 2
