All On 4 Plus® dental implants are a treatment option for replacing missing teeth and supporting a fixed dental prosthesis. Here’s what you need to know.
What Are All On 4 Dental Implants?
All On 4 dental implants are used to replace missing top or bottom teeth. They could be suitable for patients with:
- Multiple missing teeth
- Failing teeth or advanced gum disease
- Uncomfortable dentures
The procedure requires the use of four implants – two at the front of the jaw and two at the back. Together, the implants anchor a row of teeth in place ( prosthesis). The procedure is generally done under general anaesthetic, in which a patient must be deemed suitable to go ahead with.
Considerations of All On 4 Plus Dental Implants
All On 4® dental implants are one treatment option for replacing multiple missing teeth and supporting a fixed dental prosthesis.
- Appearance: The design of the prosthesis can be planned to address aspects such as tooth shape, colour and position.
- Oral structures: Missing teeth can be associated with changes to the jawbone and surrounding oral structures.
- Function: A fixed dental prosthesis may provide support for functions such as chewing.
