Teeth in a Day

The All-on-4® treatment concept

A cost-effective solution based on 4 dental implants supporting a fixed full-arch restoration.

In 1998 Dr. Paulo Malo successfully treated the first patient with the All-on-4® treatment concept. Since then hundreds of thousands of patients have been treated with this concept.

This solution was designed to be an affordable full-arch treatment solution, using economical treatment materials with a minimum number (4) of implants. For those patients seeking a low-cost option and who have a light to moderate bite, this is a good option.

However, if the goal is to restore a larger arch with heavier biting forces, then other options may need to be considered.

What is the All-on-4® treatment concept?

The All-on-4® treatment concept is a cost-effective, graftless solution that provides patients with a fixed full-arch temporary prosthesis on the day of surgery.

Characteristics include:

• Full-arch restoration supported by four dental implants.
• Immediate Loading of implants (fixed acrylic temporary bridge) 
• Utilizes tilted implants, to maximize length of implants in available bone.

Why 98% of patients would recommend the All-on-4® treatment concept

Rapid improvement in quality of life

A fixed full-arch prosthesis on the day of surgery quickly leads to improved patient satisfaction – immediate improvements in esthetics and self-esteem.

Shorter treatment times

Tilting of the posterior implants minimizes the need for time-consuming & expensive bone grafting procedures, while immediate loading shortens time-to-teeth.

Lower costs

This concept is the least costly when compared to conventional implant treatment modalities in jaws where all of the teeth are missing or have to be extracted.
