All on four implants in Kingston, Surrey

‘All on Four implants’ is a technique in the placement of dental implants (by Nobel Biocare) to restore a full upper or lower arch of teeth, with the use of just four dental implants. This method of dental implants placement enables the patient to have the full use of the teeth restorations (and the implants themselves) in the shortest possible time – with smiles that can be enjoyed after just one dental appointment, as compared to the traditional dental implants placement that involves a healing period which takes a few weeks to several months.

The four dental implants used in the All on Four implants treatment are positioned in the mouth to fully maximise the existing jaw bone structure, eliminating the need for more complicated (and more expensive) procedures, such as a bone graft.

Advantages of All on Four Implants

Immediate Results

Aesthetic and functional improvements can be enjoyed with the All on Four dental implants technique. The patient can come to the doctor’s office in the morning to have the implants placed, and can expect the teeth restorations to be attached within the same day – making it possible for a brand new smile to be enjoyed before the day ends. There is no need to wait for the implants to be fully healed – a stage which can take up to several months – before the prosthetic teeth can be attached.

Minimally Invasive

The All on Four implants treatment is minimally invasive, and will not require complicated procedures such as a bone graft. This results in less discomfort, as well as less downtime, for the patient.

Cost Effective

As there is no need for complex bone grafting procedures, and with fewer visits to the dentist, the All on Four dental implants technique is more cost effective compared to the placement of dental implants done the traditional way.
