Welcome back to our four-part article series on the key features and benefits of the “All-on-4TM” protocol. Over the course of our previous three articles, we have discussed the following:
The “All-on-4TM” typically bypasses the need for bone grafting surgery, saving patients thousands of dollars on medical bills and several months that would otherwise be spent in recovery and healing phases.
The “All-on-4TM” has an incredible success rate of 95% over a period of 10 years. If cared for properly, a patient can enjoy their new, fixed (non-removable) teeth for many decades and even a lifetime without the need for restoration or additional dental work.
The “All-on-4TM” gives patients beautiful and natural-looking teeth, which serves as a tremendous confidence booster.
The “All-on-4TM” can give patients new teeth in as little as a single day, with a single surgery.
The new teeth patients get are easy to clean, do not harbor food debris and bacteria like removable dentures tend to and, as a result, don’t cause “denture breath.”
In this article, the final installment of ...
... the series, we shall discuss how the “All-on-4TM” saves patients tens of thousands of dollars on the cost of new teeth! This, of course, is a major benefit, especially when you consider that most insurance companies still regard dental implants as an elective procedure. By reducing the cost of oral rehabilitation by tens of thousands of dollars, more and more patients are able to choose implants over removable dentures.
6. The “All-on-4TM” Saves Patients Tens of Thousands of Dollars on the Cost of Fixed Oral Rehabilitation
Cost is always a key concern of patients investigating their teeth replacement options. Owing to the number of dental implants required, the number of surgeries and the typical need for bone grafting, traditional dental implant techniques used to replace a full set of teeth would rack up exorbitant bills in the region of six digits! It’s no wonder then that so many patients opted for inferior teeth replacement technologies, such as removable partial and full dentures.
Thankfully, the innovation of the “All-on-4TM” has greatly reduced the cost of getting new teeth and here’s how:
The “All-on-4TM” only requires four dental implants per jaw, as opposed to as many as 10. Each implant typically costs a couple thousand dollars, so that’s already an incredible savings.
The “All-on-4TM” almost always requires only a single surgery, as opposed to multiple spread out over the course of 12 to 18 months. Surgery is never inexpensive, so only needing one is a major cost advantage.
The “All-on-4TM” typically avoids the need for bone grafting: an additional surgery that is notoriously expensive. Yet again, this protocol saves patients many thousands of dollars.
Tallying up the cost savings on surgeries, implant hardware and consultations, the “All-on-4TM” saves patients an average of $25,000! For more complex cases that would otherwise require bone grafting, it can save patients as much as $45,000 on the cost of a new set of teeth!
A Final Note on the “All-on-4TM”
In so many ways the “All-on-4TM” has totally changed the way implant specialists approach the treatment of patients who have lost most, if not all of their original adult teeth. But, more importantly, it has greatly improved the way these people are able to live their lives without having natural teeth. Removable dentures are a technology of the past and rightly so. Don’t compromise on your quality of life when getting new teeth: choose “All-on-4TM” dental implants.
