The procedure that makes it possible for patients to get new teeth in one day is the “All-On-4™” and it wasinnovated in the early 1990’s by European implantologist Dr. Paulo Malo. This man is also the founder andCEO of the MALO CLINIC in Lisbon; one of the world’s leading fixed oral rehabilitation and dental implantresearch and education facilities. The procedure was developed in order to provide people who had lost mostor all of their teeth or were suffering from a failing dentition as a result of advanced periodontitis (gumdisease) with a fixed and non-removable teeth replacement solution.

In order to appreciate the incredible benefits of the “All-On-4™”, one only needs to consider the challengesthat faced the traditional dental implant procedures followed to provide patients with new fixed teeth. Justone of these challenges was the length of time it took for a patient to go from toothless, or near toothless, tohaving a full, functional and beautiful smile again. This journey could take up to 18 months and includemultiple surgeries and recovery periods. In almost 100% of cases, the “All-On-4™” is able to bypass the needfor all of these surgeries as well as bone grafting and give patients new teeth in one day!

Let’s take a closer look at just how the “All-On-4™” achieves this unprecedented feat in fixed oralrehabilitation...

The “All-On-4™” dental implant protocol consists of the strategic configuration of four dental implants inregions of the jawbone that are naturally bulkier and more resistant to atrophy. This enables StamfordStamfordStamfordStamforddentaldentaldentaldental implantsimplantsimplantsimplants specialists to find enough support for a prosthetic set of teeth (dental bridge) withouthaving to perform bone-grafting surgery first. The reason this is considered such an important advancementin the field of fixed oral rehabilitation is that many of the patients who require new teeth have beenedentulous (toothless) and/or have been wearing traditional removable dentures or partial dentures formany years.

Without the presence of tooth roots to keep the jawbone stimulated and healthy, this hard tissue shrinksaway as a result of atrophy, similar to the way your muscles slim down when you don’t exercise them. Sincedental implants function like natural tooth roots, they too require a certain volume of jawbone in order to besuccessfully supported and if that bone isn't present, Stamford dental implants specialists will need toperform a bone grafting procedure...

… and we will discuss the implications of this fully in our next article installment!
