Dr. Paulo Malo, in Lisbon, Portugal, is the pioneer of the All-On-4 technique, an innovative solution for those dental patients who have lost or are about to lose all of their upper and/or lower teeth or are missing all their teeth and wearing dentures. New Albany, Indiana dentist, Dr. Ronald L. Receveur, is one of a small percentage of doctors around the globe that has had the opportunity to be trained under Dr. Malo in Lisbon.
It has been estimated that the number of people in the USA to be missing all of their natural teeth will double from 2010 to 2020. Obviously, there will be an audience looking for treatment options that are comfortable and allow good function and esthetics.
The All-on-Four eliminates messy adhesives, removing your dentures at night, embarrassment of dentures slipping during speech or smiling or the bad breath associated with wearing dentures, and allows you to eat the foods you love.
With this All-On-4 procedure, patients have a "fixed" prosthesis, where the new teeth are permanently anchored in place. Their new permanent teeth come closer to being just like their natural teeth at a more economical cost than other comparable methods previously.
What is Different About the All-On-4 Technique?
The All-on-Four technique utilizes four dental implants to attach the new set of permanent replacement teeth. The implants used in this procedure are specially designed for immediate function (putting the teeth on right away) and typically do not require expensive bone grafting. Traditional approaches utilize 8-12 implants and usually bone grafting, increasing the cost for the patient.
In many cases, patients lacking the bone volume required to support traditional implants are able to enjoy the many benefits of a permanent solution to missing teeth with this All-On-4 procedure.
Beautiful New Teeth in One Day
Due to the rigid structure of the replacement teeth and the anchorage provided by the dental implants, patients can go home that same day or the next day with new permanent teeth, even when extractions of hopeless teeth are required.
This amazing new technology is truly changing people's lives!!!
