What Treatment Methods Are There for Patients with No Teeth? What is the All On Four Implant Technique? What are the advantages? To Whom Can It Be Applied? Is There Any Pain After the All On Four Procedure?
All On Four implant technique is a technique that we can apply to our patients who do not have any teeth, where 4 implants are applied for a single jaw, two parallel implants are applied to the front jaw and two angled implants are applied to the back, and fixed temporary prostheses can be applied on the day of surgery.
When the bone loss in the back is excessive, the sinus sags downwards, and the nerve coming from here in the lower jaw is formed in an area closer to the bone. Therefore, in order to make implants in the back areas, we need to apply bone powder beforehand according to the standard implant process, but in the all on four technique, when we bypass the sinus cavities in the back and place the implants at an angle, we can also make teeth in the back groups.
At the same time, since we apply temporary fixed prostheses that our patient cannot remove on the day of surgery, our patients do not have to use a prosthesis that can be put on and taken off during the three-month period when the bone and the implant fuse.
Who can use All on 4 implants?
It can be applied to our patients who have no teeth or very few teeth left in their mouth, but now need to have them extracted.
How is All on 4 implant done?
We use panoramic radiography and tomography in our hospital to decide where and how to place the implants. In this way, we complete the surgical operation with definitive results. It takes at most one week to have a fixed, non-removable screw prosthesis surgically made.
What are the advantages of All on 4 implants ?
One of the most important advantages is that our patients regain their teeth and gain comfort in a short time. Since there is no base covering the palate, it is easier and more comfortable for patients to get used to the newly made teeth.
