All on 4 Implants and Traditional Surgical Placement Protocol
Prior to the conception of All on 4 implants by European implantologist, Dr. Paulo Malo, the road to oral rehabilitation using traditional surgical placement protocol was one that often involved countless consultations with oral surgeons, multiple surgeries, painful bone grafting and as long as 18 months before a patient could eat, smile and speak with confidence. The innovation of All on 4 implants ...
... completely revolutionized the fields of fixed oral rehabilitation and dental implantology, first and foremost, by its ability to almost always bypass the need for bone grafting. After placement in specific locations and precise angulations of the four dental implants in regions of the jaw that naturally contain a greater volume of atrophy resistant bone tissue, qualified prosthodontists are able to secure a customized and non-removable prosthetic dental bridge in the mouth… all in a single surgery, in a single day and almost never needing bone grafting beforehand.
