All-on-four implant placement is a procedure that allows dental prostheses to be fixed onto four dental implants placed at specific angles on the same day for patients who have lost all their teeth.

Who is a candidate for the All-on-Four implant procedure?

The All on Four procedure can be applied to all edentulous patients with sufficient bone volume and no systemic diseases that would prevent surgery.

What are the steps in the All on Four application?

Patients scheduled for the All-on-Four procedure first require a detailed radiological and clinical examination. Measurements are taken based on the computed tomography (CT) scan results to create a suitable treatment plan. The All-on-Four procedure consists of two main parts: surgery and dental prosthesis. On the first day of treatment, four implants are placed according to the plan, and then a temporary dental prosthesis is fixed onto the dental implants on the same day. Permanent dental prostheses are made three months after the surgical intervention.

What are the advantages of the All On Four implant procedure?

It allows for fixed dental prostheses to be provided to fully edentulous patients with a single surgical intervention on the same day.

The duration of the dental implant placement surgery is shorter.

Due to the fewer number of implants and the lack of additional surgical procedures, the cost is lower compared to conventional dental implants.

Cleaning and maintenance are more convenient than conventional implant-supported fixed dental prostheses.
