"All-on-4" Procedures
Overview
Dr. Cary Feuerman and Dr. Giovanni Castellucci have placed thousands of dental implants since 1988. In the "early days", implant dentistry followed a traditional treatment sequence and could not be used to support replacement teeth until a few months of healing had gone by. Now, because of remarkable advances in implant technology, replacement teeth can be attached to the dental implants on the same day that the implants are placed – all in one appointment!
"All-on-4" is based on Nobel Biocare's pioneering Immediate Function™ capability that is specifically designed for people with dentures or in need of full upper and/or lower restorations. "All-on-4" qualified patients receive four dental implants and a full set of new replacement teeth per arch, usually in just one appointment. The major benefit to the "All-on-4" procedure is how quickly dentures can be replaced with permanent dental implants and fixed, non-removable, new replacement teeth.
Dr. Feuerman and Dr. Castellucci are leaders in the restoration of edentulous upper and lower jaws with permanent teeth on only four dental implants. Unlike other approaches that require six, eight, or more implants, patients treated with the "All-on-4" protocol benefit from lower cost and reduced healing time. And, the success rate of the "All-on-4" procedure is similar to more traditional approaches. Our patients restore their chewing function, confidence, self-esteem, and beautiful smiles in just one appointment!
Advantages of "All-on-4" procedures include:
• An affordable solution for replacement of all missing teeth
• Immediate function
• Fixed prosthesis
• Renewed self-confidence with a beautiful smile
• Improved quality of life
