What is All-on-4

All-on-4 is an advanced, long-term dental implant solution that replaces a full arch of teeth using only four strategically placed implants.

This technique restores natural function and aesthetics, offering improved chewing ability, enhanced oral health and a lifelike feel.

By avoiding the need for bone grafting in most cases, All-on-4 reduces surgical complexity and recovery time.

Provisional teeth are typically placed within 24 hours of surgery, allowing for immediate function and aesthetics.

The benefits of All-on-4 dental implants

• Improved chewing ability: Eat a wider range of foods with comfort and ease, supporting better nutrition and digestion.

• Natural look and feel: Designed to closely mimic natural teeth in both appearance and function.

• Long-lasting results: With proper care, implants can last for decades, unlike traditional dentures which often need replacing.

• Boosted confidence: Fixed teeth eliminate slipping and discomfort, helping you speak, eat and smile without hesitation.
