All on 4

An advanced, cost-effective procedure that can transform your smile and allow you to eat foods you never thought you’d eat again. The Sydney Implant Institute can deliver you a new set of teeth in as little as a day.

What is an All on 4 (AO4)?

All on 4 dental implants are an innovative and increasingly popular procedure in which an entire set of broken down, loose, painful or missing teeth is replaced with a new set of fixed teeth. The new teeth are supported by just four dental implants, which are inserted into the jaw bone.

A cost-efficient and permanent solution that provides a fixed, full-arch prosthesis. Implants are fixed and do not need to be removed

How does All on 4 work?

An All on 4 replaces an entire arch of teeth (upper or lower) with four dental implants and a fixed bridge. If you need the upper and lower teeth replaced, there will be eight dental implants and two bridges. Before All on 4, we used six to ten implants per arch of teeth and usually with a large amount of bone and gum grafting.

All on 4 utilises the bedrock bone in front of the sinuses in the upper jaw and in front of the dental nerves in the lower jaw. Bone grows into the implants, allowing them to be fixed and able to support teeth. The back implants are angled, which means we use the good bone in the front part of the jaws. This angulation also allows the top of the implant to align with the position of a first molar, meaning we can replace 12 teeth (first molar to first molar) with just four implants and no bone grafting.

Dental AO4 bridges (initial and upgrades)

Your All on 4 bridge can be made from a number of different materials. Everyone undergoing an All on 4 at The Sydney Implant Institute will initially be issued a metal-reinforced acrylic bridge.

As an All on 4 clinic, we utilise Sydney’s most specialised and premium dental laboratory to fabricate our bridges. Located just up the road in Macquarie Street,Assia and his team (see video) use Phonares premium teeth and high-impact Ivocap acrylic to create a beautiful and durable bridge. This bridge is included in the initial All on 4 cost.

Acrylic and titanium

Also known as a “hybrid” bridge, this bridge utilises a custom-milled titanium substructure to support the same material and teeth the initial bridge was fabricated from. The main difference between this and the original bridge is that the strength is obtained from the titanium substructure, not the bulkiness of the acrylic.

  • If you have any questions, write them down so you can ask the team before surgery.
  • Discuss your medications with your dentist, GP or sedationist prior to taking them before the procedure .
  • Wear comfortable, loose fitting and warm clothing.
  • Bring an Ipad or something to read if you’d like and a secure bag for your belongings

Addressing common myths about All on 4 denture implants

When considering All on 4, you may encounter a few myths that can cause hesitation. Let’s clear up some common misconceptions and provide clarity about this procedure.

Myth 1 — All on 4 bridges are difficult to maintain

A common concern is that fixed bridges are hard to care for. All on 4 bridges are designed with maintenance in mind. Regular brushing, proper flossing and routine dental visits will keep them in excellent condition.

Myth 2 — All on 4 isn’t as strong as natural teeth

There’s a belief that All on 4 bridges might not hold up to daily use. In reality, they are engineered for strength and stability, with materials like titanium and zirconia offering durability comparable to natural teeth.

Myth 3 — All on 4 dental implants require frequent adjustments

Unlike some other dental solutions, All on 4 implants are highly stable and do not require frequent adjustments. Routine check-ups are sufficient to ensure the implants remain functional and properly aligned.

Dispelling these myths can help you make an informed decision about All on 4 implant dentistry. If you have questions about the procedure, feel free to discuss them during your consultation with our team.

Potential risks and discomforts to consider

While the All on 4 dental implant procedure is highly effective and safe, like any dental surgery, it’s important to understand that there may be some risks and mild discomforts involved. Knowing what to expect helps you feel confident and prepared.

Common temporary side effects include minor swelling, bruising or tenderness in the jaw and gums following surgery. These are completely normal and typically subside within a few days. Your care team will provide clear post-operative instructions and medications, if needed, to manage any discomfort and support a smooth recovery.
