What Is the All-on-4 Method?

The All-on-4 method uses four strategically placed dental implants to maximize available support from the jawbone. Like traditional implants, implants placed using the All-on-4 method can stop and prevent further bone recession after tooth loss. Once the implants have integrated with the jaw, they provide a permanent foundation for a fixed denture. 

Reasons to Choose All-on-4

If you’re faced with tooth loss, you may know that dental implants are the go-to solution, but feel unsure if the All-on-4 technique is best for your circumstances. Rest assured that you are not alone, which is why we’ve laid out several key benefits of All-on-4 treatment in comparison to traditional implants. Here’s what All-on-4 can do for you:

No Need for
Bone Grafting

Because traditional dental implants require sufficient jawbone tissue, patients who have experienced jaw atrophy require bone grafting before implants can be placed. The All-on-4 method can eliminate the need for bone grafting, giving patients with bone loss access to implants without preparatory treatment.

Prevention of
Future Bone Loss

Without tooth roots in place, the jawbone will gradually suffer from atrophy. The dental implants placed during All-on-4 treatment help stimulate the jawbone. This prevents bone loss from occurring in the future. This is good for your oral health, your overall wellness, and the shape and aesthetics of your face.

Accelerated
Treatment

With traditional dental implants, patients often have to wait up to six months for the implants to fuse to the jawbone in a process called osseointegration before their dentures can be attached. Using the All-on-4 method, your dentist can place your implant-supported dentures the same day your implants are placed.

When you visit our dental office in Austin, TX, we can consult you further on the differences between dental implants and the All-on-4 technique, and recommend the solution that makes the most sense for you.

What Makes All-on-4 Different From Dentures? Dr. Mike Meek Offers a Straightforward Explanation

All-on-4 implants can support a full arch denture without creams or adhesives. The stability of the implants is comparable to natural tooth roots. Biting, chewing, and speaking are no problem thanks to this natural-looking and long-lasting solution to missing teeth.

We Use Premier Technology and Materials to Deliver Superior Results

At 38th Street Dental, we utilize the latest tools, techniques, and other resources to provide patients throughout Austin and beyond with an unparalleled caliber of care. Here’s what we rely on to give our patients excellent results:

Digital X-Rays

We use digital X-rays to minimize radiation and produce high-quality images of your tooth and jaw structure that can be assessed immediately. This helps us determine candidacy and aids in creating custom treatment plans.

3D Printed Surgical Guides

We fabricate single-use appliances that fit over our patients’ teeth, allowing our dentists to place implants in precisely the right locations. This reduces the risk of implant failure and increases the chances of successful results.

CT Scanning

Used in the diagnostic phase, we’ll take a CT scan to get a detailed visualization of underlying jawbone depth and pave the way for a successful procedure and smooth patient recovery. Precision makes great outcomes possible.

Nobel Biocare Dental Implants

Our practice places implants manufactured by Nobel Biocare, one of the world’s leaders in implant dentistry technology. We believe in these implants so much that our own Dr. Meek has lectured on behalf of the Swiss company.

How Much Do All-on-4 Dental Implants Cost?

The price of All-on-4 treatment can vary based on the needs of the patient. Additional dental procedures that have to be performed before implant placement will affect the final cost of the procedure.

While dental insurance will not cover the cost of implants, there is a chance that your insurance will cover the dental prosthetic.

During your visit to our Central Austin office, we can go over pricing and answer any questions you may have about this investment in your health.

Qualifying for All-on-4 Treatment Who Is a Good Candidate for This Procedure?

While All-on-4 has numerous benefits, not everyone is an ideal candidate for treatment. Good candidates for All-on-4 are:

In Good General Health

To qualify for All-on-4 treatment, you should be healthy enough to undergo oral surgery. Diabetic patients will need to have stabilized glucose levels. Smokers will need to cease smoking since smoking has been linked to an increased risk of implant failure.

Committed to Good Oral Health

Maintaining good oral hygiene is critical to your oral health. It is important to practice good oral hygiene after receiving dental implants and your denture to not only keep your mouth healthy, but also maintain your beautiful new smile for years to come.

Seeking a Faster Track to Full-Arch Restoration

If you have spoken to a dentist about dental implant-supported dentures only to be told that you will need bone grafting and several months of healing time first, All-on-4 can provide you with a faster solution. Plus, All-on-4 implants can support a denture right away.

Find Out If You're a Candidate Contact Our Austin Dental Practice

The best way to know if you are a good All-on-4 candidate is to schedule a consultation at our Austin, TX, practice. Our dentists will review your oral health needs and goals to recommend the best treatment. 

If they determine the All-on-4 method is best for you, they will use our advanced imaging software to precisely plan your surgery and implant placement. Our dentists work closely with a trusted surgeon to complete your implant surgery. You will be given local anesthesia, but we also offer sedation for more anxious patients. 

Reach out to our Austin, TX, practice with any questions or concerns about All-on-4 treatment.

Initial Consultation

During your initial consultation, you will meet with your dentist. He will examine your mouth and overall health to determine if you are a candidate for All-on-4 dental implants. X-rays and a 3D CT scan are performed to get a complete picture of your mouth and jaw for optimal placement of your dental implants.

Anesthesia

Before your surgical procedure begins, a local anesthetic will be used to numb your mouth so you do not feel any pain. If you require a higher level of comfort or you suffer from dental anxiety, we offer oral conscious sedation and nitrous oxide.

Dental Implant Placement

Once you are properly numbed, the surgeon will place four dental implants directly into the jawbone along the upper or lower arch.
