Recovery: We recommend a week off from work post-surgery to allow initial healing. During the first 8–12 weeks, a soft-food diet is advised to support the integration of implants with the jawbone. After 12 weeks, patients can resume a regular diet.
Aftercare and Maintenance: Daily brushing and the use of an interdental toothbrush are essential to maintain the health of your implants. Regular check-ups, ideally once or twice a year, include removing the bridge for deep cleaning at our dental laboratory.

To ensure that your smile remains in top condition, we recommend regular visits for professional cleaning. Additionally, we offer a variety of payment options, including interest-free financing for up to 24 months, making your All-on-4 treatment affordable and stress-free.
The All on 4 dental implant technique is transforming full jaw restoration, challenging long-held beliefs about bone grafting. Traditionally, dental implants often required bone grafting to compensate for insufficient bone volume. However, All on 4 implants frequently bypass this necessity due to their unique design and placement strategy. This innovative method involves positioning four implants in the jaw, utilizing existing bone structure, even where volume is limited. The success of this procedure, especially without bone grafting, heavily relies on the dentist's skill and precision. Experienced professionals adept in implantology can effectively leverage the jaw's anatomy, reducing the need for additional invasive procedures. Avoiding bone grafting offers numerous advantages, including shorter treatment times, less invasive surgery, and faster recovery. This approach not only enhances patient comfort but also immediately improves dental functionality and aesthetics.
