FOR many people, tooth loss is about much more than appearance.

Missing or failing teeth can affect self-esteem, make it difficult to enjoy favourite foods, impact speech, and lead to a reluctance to smile in social situations.

While these challenges are often associated with ageing, they can affect adults of all ages and have a significant impact on quality of life.

At Main Street Dental Practice in Bacchus Marsh, Dr Saba Farooq is passionate about helping patients regain their confidence through modern dental solutions tailored to their individual needs.

As an accredited partner of Next Smile Australia, Dr Farooq works alongside Dr Larry Benge, lead surgeon and co-founder of Australia’s leading provider of the All-on-4® treatment concept Next Smile Australia, giving local patients access to world-class expertise and proven treatment protocols closer to home.

What is All-on-4®

Originally developed by Professor Paulo Malo, the All-on-4® treatment concept was designed to help patients who had experienced significant bone loss and may not have been suitable candidates for traditional dental implants.

By strategically placing four dental implants in areas where bone is often naturally stronger, the treatment concept can often eliminate the need for complex bone grafting procedures, making full-mouth rehabilitation possible for many patients who may otherwise have limited treatment options.

Today, the All-on-4® treatment concept is used to help people who have lost most or all of their teeth, are struggling with loose or uncomfortable dentures, or have teeth that can no longer be predictably restored.

Using just four strategically placed implants, a full arch of replacement teeth can be supported, creating a smile that is designed to look natural and function like natural teeth.

Patients of Main Street Dental Practice benefit from a treatment concept backed by more than 25 years of research and clinical innovation.

Next Smile Australia has helped more than 12,000 Australians restore their smiles and is the only provider in Australia personally endorsed by Professor Malo.
