Thanks to the advancements in modern dentistry, there are convenient solutions available to replace missing teeth, and one such solution is All-on-4 implants.
What are All-on-4 Implants?
All-on-4 is a minimally invasive method of placing a full mouth of implants only using four implants to support a full arch (upper or lower) fixed non-removable replacement teeth. The procedure is designed for anyone who has lost teeth and wants to have a permanent good-looking set of replacement teeth. It is also the ideal procedure for someone that does not have the bone density to support a full set of individual implants. Additionally, for patients who have lost all their teeth or may need to have the remaining teeth pulled due to decay, this is an amazing advancement that allows them to have a full set of teeth without undergoing multiple procedures.

The Benefits
- Easy maintenance: You can care for All-on-4 implants just like your natural teeth, simply by brushing them daily.
- No dietary restrictions: Unlike some other dental restorations, All-on-4 implants allow you to enjoy your favorite foods without having to worry about damaging the implants. They function similarly to natural teeth.
- Prevents bone deterioration: All-on-4 implants help prevent bone deterioration in the jawbone, thus preserving your facial features and combating resorption.
- Non-removable: You don't have to remove the implants while eating or cleaning your teeth. They remain securely in place.
- Enhanced biting force: With All-on-4 implants, you can bite down with up to 70% more force compared to traditional dentures, allowing for improved functionality.
- Natural appearance: All-on-4 implants are designed to closely resemble your natural teeth, providing you with an aesthetically pleasing smile.
