🦷 What Is the All-on-Four Technique?
The All-on-Four technique is a modern implant procedure designed for edentulous patients, involving the placement of four implants into the jawbone to support a complete fixed prosthesis.
✔ Fewer Surgical Procedures: Compared to traditional implant methods, it requires fewer surgeries.
✔ Immediate Prosthesis: Patients can receive a temporary dental prosthesis on the same day.
✔ Efficient Bone Use: Implants are placed without the need for extensive surgeries, even in cases of bone loss.
In this technique, two straight implants are placed in the front region of the jaw, while two tilted implants are placed in the rear regions. This allows for better use of the available jawbone, enabling implant placement without the need for additional surgeries, even in patients with bone loss.
