All on 4 Zahnimplantate
All-on-4 dental implants are a revolutionary approach to dental restoration. Unlike traditional implants that require one implant per tooth, the All-on-4 method uses just four strategically placed implants to support a full arch of teeth. This technique not only reduces the number of implants needed but also minimizes the surgery time and recovery period.
The All-on-4 Procedure
The All-on-4 dental implant procedure involves several key steps:
- Initial Consultation: Your dentist will conduct a thorough examination, including X-rays and 3D imaging, to assess your oral health and determine if you’re a suitable candidate for All-on-4 implants.
- Treatment Planning: A customized treatment plan is created, outlining the placement of the four implants and the design of your new teeth.
- Implant Placement: On the day of the surgery, the dentist will place four titanium implants into the jawbone. These implants are positioned at specific angles to maximize contact with the bone.
- Temporary Prosthesis: A temporary set of teeth is attached to the implants immediately after surgery, allowing you to leave the clinic with a functional and attractive smile.
- Healing Period: Over the next few months, the implants will integrate with the jawbone, providing a strong foundation for the permanent prosthesis.
- Final Prosthesis: Once the implants have fully healed, your dentist will place the final, custom-designed set of teeth, completing the restoration process.
