At Smiley Implants, we are proud to offer the All-on-4 dental implant system, an innovative solution designed to provide a full-arch replacement with just four implants. This state-of-the-art procedure restores your smile and improves oral function, offering a permanent and stable alternative to traditional dentures.

What are All-on-4 Dental Implants?

The All-on-4 dental implant system is a method used to replace an entire arch of missing teeth with a fixed, full-arch prosthesis. This system uses only four strategically placed implants to support a complete set of upper or lower teeth, providing a secure and long-lasting foundation.

Benefits of All-on-4 Dental Implants

1. Full-Arch Restoration: All-on-4 allows for the replacement of an entire set of teeth in one procedure, offering a complete smile makeover.
2. Stability and Security: The fixed nature of the All-on-4 prosthesis means no slipping or movement, unlike traditional dentures.
3. Bone Preservation: The implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing bone loss and maintaining facial structure.
4. Immediate Results: Patients can often receive a temporary prosthesis on the same day as the implant surgery, leaving the office with a new smile.
5. Improved Functionality: Enjoy a diverse diet and speak confidently with the stability and strength provided by the All-on-4 system.
6. Reduced Treatment Time: With only four implants needed per arch, the procedure is less invasive and requires fewer appointments compared to traditional implant methods.
7. Cost-Effective: The All-on-4 system is typically more affordable than placing individual implants for each missing tooth.

The All-on-4 Procedure

1. Initial Consultation: During your first visit, we will conduct a comprehensive examination, including X-rays and digital scans, to evaluate your oral health and develop a personalized treatment plan.
2. Treatment Planning: Using advanced imaging technology, we precisely plan the placement of the four implants to ensure optimal support and stability for the prosthesis.
3. Implant Placement: The four implants are surgically placed into the jawbone at specific angles to maximize contact with the bone and provide a strong foundation. This procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia for your comfort.
4. Immediate Prosthesis: In many cases, a temporary prosthesis is attached to the implants on the same day, allowing you to leave the office with a functional set of teeth while your implants heal.
5. Healing Period: Over the next few months, the implants will integrate with the jawbone through a process called osseointegration, creating a solid base for the permanent prosthesis.
6. Final Prosthesis: Once the implants have fully integrated, a custom-made, permanent prosthesis is fabricated and securely attached to the implants. This prosthesis is designed to match your natural teeth in appearance and function.
7. Follow-Up Care: Regular follow-up visits are scheduled to ensure the implants and prosthesis are functioning correctly and to maintain your overall oral health.

Caring for Your All-on-4 Implants

To ensure the longevity and health of your All-on-4 dental implants, follow these care guidelines:

• Daily Oral Hygiene: Brush and floss regularly to keep the implants and surrounding gum tissue clean and healthy.
• Routine Dental Visits: Schedule regular check-ups and professional cleanings to monitor the health of your implants and overall oral health.
• Healthy Lifestyle: Avoid smoking and limit consumption of hard and sticky foods that can damage the implants or prosthesis.
