Would you be surprised if I tell you that it is absolutely possible to have a complete set of teeth replaced in just one day? There are many patients who have spent a major part of their life looking for a way to get back their lost confidence. Many are told they are not implant candidates, or that they will need painful and costly bone grafting procedures prior to receiving implants. Now, thanks to the All -on -4™ dental implant procedure, these patients can have the solution they’ve been seeking…all in just one day and almost always without bone grafting!
The revolutionary All -on -4™ dental implant procedure is now considered as the most convenient and effective solution for people who are seeking to replace all of their teeth or get rid of their dentures. If you are fed up with redoing your bridgework over and over, are on the verge of losing your natural teeth, or you simply would like to say “good bye” to your dentures…The All -on -4™ dental implant procedure is for you. This breakthrough procedure eliminates the standard healing time or the need for multiple procedures and allows a new, non-removable bridge to be placed on the very same day as your dental implants.
There are only a couple of steps necessary before proceeding with your All -on -4™ surgery, which typically takes only 1-2 hours and then your bridge can firmly be secured to your implants.
Consultation – This is the initial visit where your concerns are addressed and solutions are offered based on your specific problems or needs. During this visit, in addition to a Clinical Exam, a 3D CAT Scan is taken of your jaws. This advanced technology allows your entire dental surgery to be “virtually planned” on a computer. Additionally, at this appointment, Impressions, or molds of your mouth, may be taken to facilitate the planning and fabrication of your new teeth. Lastly, all your questions will be answered so that you have a full understanding of the proposed treatment plan.
Day of the Procedure – This is the phase where remaining teeth, if any, are removed and the dental implants are placed. After a short recovery, your brand new bridge is attached to the dental implants so you will walk out that day and immediately be able to enjoy your new teeth.
Education –In this important aspect of your care, consultants provide advice and suggestions to you along with feedback in order to assure long term success of your new implant supported bridge.
Post-Operative Phase – During the first few months, your healing phase, your implants will be undergoing “osseointegration”. That means that your new implants will be forming a very strong biological bond to the jaw bone. The unique implants used by our team allows you to eat and speak normally during this healing period right from day 1. With the All -on -4™ technique as innovated by Dr. Paulo Malo, it’s no longer necessary to wait 6 months or longer before enjoying your new implants. This concept, known as “immediate function” is why the All -on -4™ technique (when performed using MALO CLINIC protocols) has been called “the greatest breakthrough in implant dentistry in recent decades”.
