Case Study: All-on-4/All-on-6

The patient had an unsuitable removable denture, several missing teeth in poor condition and no confidence in her smile and chewing. After careful planning, in one day only, 6 dental implants and an immediate bridge were placed on the upper jaw. Single implants were also placed on the lower jaw, as well as crowns on the remaining lower teeth.

How does All-on-4 Dental Implants treatment work?

Step 1: Diagnosis and planning

Using state-of-the-art technology, an incredibly thorough diagnosis and treatment plan are made. Although challenging, it was decided to use 6 implants in this case, as the software
indicated that this would be possible. A new smile is digitally designed, so that it fits perfectly with the patient’s face.

Step 2: Implant procedure and new teeth

On the same day, 6 implants, bone and soft tissue grafting and an immediate fixed bridge are placed. The patient can go home with the comfort of fixed teeth, after decades of using wobbly dentures. A few months later, a new zirconia bridge was fabricated on the upper jaw; the lower teeth were restored with zirconia crowns and bridges.

Step 3: Final bridges

After a few months, two permanent bridges were crafted to enhance both aesthetics and comfort. In this case, the final restoration consisted of a metal framework and PMMA-milled teeth

Step 4: Final view

Our patient was thrilled with their new teeth, which not only improved
their ability to eat and speak but also enhanced their smile and self-confidence.
