All On 4 Dental Implants

A reason to smile again: all-on-four dental implants

Can just four implants replace all of the teeth on the top or the bottom of your mouth?

Thanks to advances in dental implant technology, that answer is a resounding yes. Believe it or not, tooth loss is extremely common among adults, especially as we age. In fact, more than 35 million people in India are missing all of their upper and/or lower teeth. Rather than living with the discomfort and hassles of dentures, many people are opting for what is called “all-on-four” dental implant restoration.

All-on-Four: One full arch of teeth

To fully understand this remarkable technique for replacing teeth, you should first understand what a dental implant is. An implant is a small titanium screw that fits inside your jawbone and replaces the root-part of a missing tooth. Minor surgery is required to insert the implants. Once the implant is in place, a crown is attached to give you a highly realistic-looking and functional prosthetic tooth.


Here’s where it gets really interesting: You do not need a dental implant for each and every one of your missing teeth. All you need is four precisely placed implants on the top of your mouth, and four on the bottom, to restore your full smile. That’s the beauty of the all-on-four. And because the implant is made of titanium, it has the unique ability to fuse to living bone and function as part of it. So eventually, the dental implant becomes part of the jawbone and serves as a strong, long-lasting foundation for your new teeth.

Besides ensuring that your implants are permanently fixed in place, this bone fusion has another important benefit: it prevents future bone loss in the jaw. This helps to maintain a more youthful facial structure—and better oral health. But perhaps the biggest surprise about the all-on-four is how quickly it can transform your life.

What is a dental implant?

A dental implant is the strongest and most natural-looking and function false tooth. It consists of a tiny post that is surgically implanted into the jaw bone. Once it fuses to the jaw bone, an abutment and crown are placed on top. Implants are permanent, unlike dentures, and are intended to last a lifetime when proper dental hygiene is practiced.

What are All-On-4 dental implants?

All-On-4 implants differ from traditional dental implants by making it possible for multiple teeth to be replaced with just 4 implants. Traditional implants replace individual teeth. With All-On-4 implants, 4 titanium implants are placed along the top of the mouth and 4 are placed on the bottom, which provides an efficient way to replace all or most teeth at once.

Why should patients consider getting All-On-4 implants?

All-On-4 implants provide a suitable alternative to dentures for those who need to have all, or most of their teeth replaced. Unlike dentures, these implants prevent bone loss, which can affect the facial structure.
What can patients expect from the All-On-4 process?


Patients who choose to have All-On-4 implants undergo minor surgery to install the implants into the jawbone. Over the next several weeks, the jawbone and implants fuse together. After the jawbone is fully healed, the next step is to have abutments and replacement teeth placed on each implant. These small posts serve as the anchors for replacement teeth.
Which patients can have All-On-4 implants?


All-On-4 implants are suitable for patients who have sufficient jawbone to hold the implants securely. If there isn’t enough bone, patients may need bone grafts first. Viable candidates must also have enough healthy gum tissue, and be free of any conditions or diseases that may interfere with or slow the healing process.
Are All-On-4 Implants safe?


All-On-4 implants are extremely safe for patients deemed suitable. As with any dental procedure, there is a minimal risk of bleeding, infection, and nerve damage.

Advantages

All-on-4 dental implants offer many benefits over conventional implants and removable dentures. These include:

• Short treatment and recovery time
• Implants placed on the same day as extraction
• Comfortable and stable structure to support crowns and bridges
• Fixed in place – no need to remove for cleaning
• Don’t slip or fall out
• Suitable for patients with jaw bone loss
• Cheaper than traditional techniques that use 8-10 implants

All-on-4 vs. dentures

The traditional way to replace a full jaw of teeth is with removable dentures. Also known as “false teeth”, these consist of a gum-colored acrylic base and teeth made from resin or porcelain.
Dentures fit over the gums and stay in place either with suction alone or with a dental adhesive. Properly fitting dentures shouldn’t require any adhesive.
However, the supporting bone shrinks over time as there are no teeth for it to hold in place, and this change of shape will cause dentures to become loose. This means they need to be replaced regularly to avoid discomfort and problems eating.

If you find that All-on-4 costs too much with a UK dentist, you might consider visiting a dentist in Bangalore. Thousands of British patients travel overseas every year to save money on dental care – and perhaps enjoy a holiday at the same time.
