All on 4, all on 6 dental implant technique in Kyiv, Ukraine

Everyone can face the problem of total tooth loss at one age or another. The cause can be both individual characteristics of the body, age-related changes, systemic diseases or the consequences of mechanical injury.

As soon as this happens, the question arises of restoring the chewing function and prosthetics of the jaw. Today, dentistry offers various options for replacing lost teeth.

In order to restore the entire dentition, you choose from prosthetics with a removable prosthesis, prosthetics on implants, or you can give preference to implantation using the all on 4, all on 6 technique.

This procedure allows you to install a fixed prosthesis on 4 or 6 implants, which significantly reduces treatment costs and the recovery period. It also allows you to completely restore lost teeth in one visit to the dentist.

Implantation according to the All-on-4 or All-on-6 protocol takes place in two stages.

At the first stage, the dental surgeon installs four implants, and the orthopedist fixes the temporary prosthesis on the same day.

At the second stage, after 4-6 months, the doctor changes the temporary prosthesis to a permanent one. Thus, the patient does not remain without teeth for a day.

This technique has been widely used in dentistry all over the world for more than 20 years and has successfully restored the teeth of a thousand patients.

Pros and cons of All on 4 implants

Choosing  All on 4 implant surgery, the patient receives a number of advantages:

 

  • Reducing the cost of prosthetics (since there is no need to put implants to replace each lost tooth)
  • Shorter recovery period and reduction of the area of ​​surgical intervention (all-by-4 all-by-6 prosthetics avoid additional operations, such as sinus lifting and gingival plasty).
  • Carry out prosthetics at one visit to the dentist (not counting the diagnosis and examination of previous operations)
  • Get an aesthetically beautiful smile
  • Reduce hygiene and solid food restrictions immediately after prosthetics.

 

Features of All on 4 implant technique

Replacing the lost teeth using the All on 4 dental  implant system involves the installation of a fixed or partially removable prosthesis on 4 implants that are implanted in the jaw. Two implants are placed in the anterior section and two more are in the lateral section of the jaw at an angle.

After that, a temporary prosthesis is installed for 10 or 12 teeth, and with All on 6 technique –  for 14 teeth, thus restoring the entire dentition. Later, the temporary prosthesis is replaced with a permanent one.

In order to restore teeth using the All on 4 dental implant system, you need to contact the clinic and undergo a series of procedures:

  • Diagnostics and consultation. It is necessary to assess the volume of the jawbone and make sure that there are no contraindications for this procedure. The doctor may prescribe an x-ray or CT scan in this case.
  • Dental surgery preparation. It is necessary to undergo a series of laboratory examinations, as before any surgical intervention. After evaluating the results, the doctor will set the date of the operation and answer all your questions.
  • In case of a lack of bone tissue in the places of future dental implants, a sinus lifting procedure can be preliminarily performed.
  • The next step is the implant placement. More information about this operation can be found on the “Implantation” page on our website.
  • Immediately after the end of the implantation procedure, a temporary prosthesis can be installed.

Indications and contraindications for All on 4 implantation

The main indication for this procedure is complete adentia – the absence of all teeth. Among other indications is the absence of only the upper or lower dentition, in this case the prosthetics of one jaw is performed. The need to replace a removable denture with a permanent denture may also cause the patient to be interested in all-on-4 dental implant technique.

Sometimes this type of treatment is used when the part of the teeth is missing, and the rest must be removed for medical reasons, for example, due to severe destruction.

Contraindications for all on 4 implantation can be:

  • Inflammatory processes in the oral cavity
  • Exacerbation of chronic diseases (the operation must be postponed until recovery)
  • Tuberculosis
  • Diabetes
  • Oncological diseases (implantation can be carried out when complete remission is achieved)
  • Some blood diseases and pathologies of the cardiovascular system.

If there are contraindications, the specialist will give you recommendations, and, if necessary, will select the best alternative solution to your problem.
