The All on 4 technique through the placement of dental implants allows the patient to restore dental and facial aesthetics as well as the chewing function when teeth have been lost. In this technique, four dental implants are placed with an angulation and distribution in the dental arch that allows the immediate placement of total screwed prostheses, improving the quality of life of patients who undergo this treatment.

It must be performed by a certified Maxillofacial Surgeon with experience in dental implants, as well as a specialist in dental rehabilitation. These two specialties working together guarantee success and reduce the rate of complications in the treatment. The surgery can be performed under local anesthesia, and in many cases it can also be performed under conscious sedation with the support of the anesthesiologist. Bone anchoring sites are sought in the jaws to avoid the use of bone grafts (depending the case). In addition, adequate stability is achieved in the implants which allows placement of a screwed temporary dental prosthesis that will help the patient to feel more comfortable during the osseointegration process (three to four months). Finally, the placement of the final Zirconia prosthesis can be carried out.

Dental implants must be placed within the alveolar bone of the jaws. It is necessary to take into account the different anatomical structures, to avoid complications, for which the surgeon experience is the most important to carry out the procedure safely. There are tools such as the use of surgical guides that make surgery more accurate and allow the surgeon to make less invasive surgical approaches, which benefits the patient during the post-surgery period.
