What are All-On-4 dental implants?
All-on-4® dental implants refer to a specific technique for the placement of multiple dental implants to support a full arch of teeth in the upper or lower jaw. This approach is a fixed and non-removable set of artificial teeth for individuals who are missing a significant number or all of their teeth.
The standout feature of All-on-4 implants is that all teeth are replaced with just four implants (two in the front and a further two at the back of your mouth).

Frequently asked questions
During the procedure, you shouldn’t feel any pain as your dentist or oral surgeon will apply anaesthetic. In the days following each procedure, you may feel some tenderness or pain, which can be managed with over-the-counter pain medication.
As with natural teeth, it's important to properly care for your dental implants to avoid issues. That means thoroughly brushing your teeth and rinsing out your mouth to remove debris and plaque. You'll also want to continue getting regular dental check-ups.
If you neglect your dental hygiene after you've received dental implants, plaque, and gum infections can occur because they're bonded with the jawbone and gum tissues.
Dental implants require minor surgeries, which means there are some risks involved. These include; infection, sinus problems, injury, or nerve damage. Although these are not the norm, it is best to speak to your dentist about the risks involved with your specific case.
