All-on-Four implantation is a method of placing implants that allows you to restore a tooth row using only 4 implants (instead of 14-16). This approach greatly simplifies the surgery itself as well as the patient’s recovery time.

The installation of implants “all on 4”. How it goes

In order to place implants according to the “All on 4” system, 4 implants are placed in the patient’s jaw in such positions and at such an angle that it is possible to place a fixed, arch-shaped bridge on them.

As a rule, 10 teeth are placed on such a prosthesis. This number is enough to make the smile aesthetically appealing, but it is worth noting that this number is not always enough to restore the full masticatory function of the jaw.

Therefore, when the patient’s oral situation allows it, the dentist can fit 12 or even 14 teeth. However, only a specialist can make this decision.
