What is All-On-4?

In the world of dental restoration, the All-On-4 treatment concept stands out as a revolutionary solution for individuals missing most or all of their teeth. At Advanced Dentistry & Implants, we take this innovative approach a step further with our specialized “All-On-X” technique, incorporating a fully digital workflow to enhance the precision and success of the treatment. This post will delve into what All-On-X entails and the myriad benefits of integrating digital technology into dental restorations.

All-On-X Dental Implants

What is All-On-4?

The All-On-4 treatment concept is a surgical and prosthetic medical procedure that provides a permanent, screw-retained, same-day replacement for the entire upper and/or lower set of teeth. The procedure is called “All-On-4” because four dental implants are used as the foundation to secure a full arch of teeth, offering a long-term solution for individuals who have lost a significant number of teeth due to disease, decay, or injury.

Introducing All-On-X at Advanced Dentistry & Implants

At Advanced Dentistry & Implants, we refer to our enhanced version of this procedure as “All-On-X.” The “X” in All-On-X signifies the adaptability in the number of implants used, which can vary based on the patient’s specific needs and bone density. This personalized approach ensures optimal support for the dental prosthesis, tailoring the treatment to each individual for the best possible outcomes.

Benefits of a Fully Digital Workflow

1. Improved Precision

Utilizing state-of-the-art digital scanning and planning tools allows for more accurate implant placement. This precision is crucial for the success and longevity of the All-On-X procedure, ensuring that each implant is positioned in the optimal location for both functional and aesthetic outcomes.

2. Customized Treatment Planning

Digital technology enables us to create a detailed 3D model of the patient’s mouth. This model is used to meticulously plan the procedure, from the placement of the implants to the design of the prosthetic teeth, ensuring a custom fit that looks and feels natural.

3. Faster Recovery Times

The accuracy afforded by digital planning reduces the risk of complications, leading to smoother surgeries and potentially faster recovery times for patients. Minimally invasive techniques can often be employed, further enhancing the healing process.

4. Immediate Results

With the All-On-X procedure, patients can often leave the dental office with a full set of temporary teeth the same day as their surgery, providing an immediate improvement in function and aesthetics. These temporary teeth are then replaced with a permanent set once healing is complete.

5. Enhanced Patient Experience

The use of digital workflows not only improves the accuracy and efficiency of the treatment but also enhances the overall patient experience. Digital impressions are more comfortable than traditional methods, and the ability to preview potential results can provide peace of mind and confidence in the treatment plan.

Conclusion

The All-On-X dental implant procedure at Advanced Dentistry & Implants represents the pinnacle of restorative dentistry, combining the proven success of the All-On-4 concept with the latest in digital dental technology. This approach not only maximizes the precision and success of the treatment but also offers a transformative experience for patients looking to restore their smile and dental function.
