All on 4 ManchesterAll on 4 provided by Columbia Implant Center in Manchester, CT At Columbia Implant Center, we want our patients to experience a supreme level of care with optimal results. For this reason, we utilize cutting-edge technology and advanced techniques, such as the All on 4 treatment concept, a revolutionary full-arch dental implant solution. If you are missing all or most of your teeth, All on 4 may be the ideal solution. What Is All on 4?All on 4 is a complete fixed bridge that only requires the placement of four implants. Other full-arch restorations require anywhere from six to eight implants (or more), which often results in a longer healing period and a need for preliminary procedures like bone grafting. Because All on 4 only requires four implants, this treatment concept provides several advantages over more conventional alternatives. A dental implant is a small titanium post that serves as the anchor for a porcelain or zirconia restoration. With All on 4, each implant is placed at a precise angle to maximize the support of your jawbone. This technique utilizes existing bone and eliminates the need to place an implant for each missing tooth. The All on 4 ProcessThe All on 4 process, like any oral surgery, begins with a consultation appointment. During your consultation, a series of comprehensive tests will be performed to determine if All on 4 is right for you. This often includes diagnostic x-rays and CBCT scans, which give us a better understanding of your bone structure and the current status of your oral health. Once we determine you are a suitable candidate for All on 4, we can develop an appropriate treatment plan. Your treatment planning will involve 3D imaging technology to help us establish the precise position for each implant. The front two implants are placed at a vertical angle, while the posterior implants are positioned at a 45-degree angle from your bite plane. We place all four implants (or more, depending on the circumstances) during a single visit. You can be sure of one thing: you won't go home without teeth. Over the next six months to a year, the implants and your jawbone will fuse during a process known as osseointegration. Once osseointegration is complete, we can fabricate and place your final restoration. Benefits of All on 4All on 4 is considered one of the best full-arch restorations due to its many benefits, some of which include:
