All on four Dental implants include creating a fixed, functional and stable set of provisional teeth using just four dental implants. With only four implant placement possible, rather than 6 to 8, on the same day, treatment is faster and more cost-efficient than other comparable alternatives. The treatment also involves placement of angulated implants in the posterior region to overcome bone deficiencies.
Denture wearer have a problem of bone loss because the bone is tend to be receiving continuous pressure from the denture causing the bone to resorb. They often find a need to religion their dentures after sometime. All-on-4 dental implants eliminates the need for continuous denture relining.
