What is the All-on-4® System? 
The All-on-4 implant technique is an innovative, cost-effective solution designed for patients who have lost or are about to lose all their teeth in one or both jaws. Unlike traditional implant methods which often require 6-8 implants per arch, the All-on-4 system uses only four strategically placed dental implants to anchor a full arch of fixed, non-removable prosthetic teeth.
In this procedure, two implants are placed straight in the anterior region, and two posterior implants are placed at a 45-degree angle. This angled placement allows surgeons to maximize the use of existing, denser bone structure, often eliminating the need for complex and time-consuming bone grafting or sinus lifting procedures.
Medora Smile consulting ensures you harness the full benefits of the All-on-4 system by matching you with the most proficient surgeons and advanced facilities:
Immediate Function and Esthetics: This procedure's major benefit is the rapid restoration of your smile. Patients often receive a temporary, fixed set of prosthetic teeth on the same day the implants are placed, allowing for immediate comfort and function while the implants heal.
Avoids Major Surgery: The angled placement strategically utilizes available bone, meaning most patients with bone loss can avoid extensive bone augmentation (grafting).
Enhanced Comfort and Confidence: The fixed nature of the teeth restores full chewing function and eliminates the discomfort and social anxiety associated with removable dentures.
Cost Efficiency: Using only four implants dramatically reduces the overall material and surgical cost compared to a full-mouth restoration requiring 8-10 implants.
Faster Recovery: With fewer surgical sites, the recovery process is typically faster and more comfortable.
As your dental consulting partner, Medora Smile streamlines the entire journey from planning to final result:
We start with a detailed clinical and radiological examination, utilizing CT scans to create 3D images of your jawbone. Our experts digitally plan the precise location and angle of the four implants to ensure maximum stability and long-term success.
We schedule and coordinate your procedure at a specialized partner clinic. The surgeon places the four implants under local anesthesia. Immediately following the surgery, your temporary fixed prosthesis is attached to the new implants.
The implants require a 3 to 6-month healing period (osseointegration) to fuse with the jawbone. Medora Smile coordinates your second, shorter visit to have your custom-designed, permanent prosthesis fitted, ensuring the perfect fit, bite, and aesthetic look.
The All-on-4 technique is ideal for individuals who:
Have completely lost all their teeth (edentulous).
Are facing the loss of their remaining teeth due to severe decay or periodontal disease.
Are current denture wearers seeking a permanent, non-removable solution.
Require a full-arch restoration but have limited bone volume (preferring to avoid bone grafts).
