FAQs - What is "All On Four"?
What is the “All On Four”?

Same day implant teeth, known, as the “All On Four”, is the revolutionary smile solution for those who lost all their teeth, suffering from poor broken teeth or loose fitting dentures.

This safe revolutionary treatment provides you with a permanent fixed teeth restoration (non-removable fixed teeth) in just one day. The treatment is designed to utilize only four dental implants to secure your permanent teeth and has changed the lives for many individuals today.

Am I a candidate for the “All On Four”?

Optimal candidates for the “All On Four” procedure include are those who:

  • Lost all or most of their teeth
  • Have many badly broken or diseased teeth
  • Currently have removable dentures
Why should I choose to have the “All On Four” procedure?

The All On Four dental implant procedure has grown in popularity among individuals in need of secure dentures. Studies have proven long-term success rate of 95%, over the past 15 years. Incorporating titanium alloys and CAD/CAM technologies (computer-aided design), we are able to provide patients with an affordable, safe, comfortable, stable and healthy treatment alternative. When compared to other treatment options, “All On Four” requires significantly shorter treatment durations.

What is the process that a patient undergoes?

A new patient begins the “All On Four” procedure with comprehensive consultation with Dr. Halim (one hour or 90 minutes) including X-rays. The treatment process requires a case work-up, a CT scan, and fabrication of the prosthesis (new teeth).

The surgical dental implants placement and securing of the new teeth are then completed under sedation in the same day. After the healing period for dental implants (3-4 months), the final restoration is constructed and attached permanently.

Three yearly maintenances are required thereafter, to ensure long-term, healthy and successful treatment.

What will I experience leaving the office after the teeth are in?

It is hard to describe or predict an individual’s feelings. However, many of our patients have described it as a life changing experience. Before the procedure, the patient is often wearing annoying, removable dentures or suffers from badly broken teeth. By the end of the procedure, they leave with a beautiful smile, extremely happy and excited about life again. It is truly a life changing experience!
