In case of complete tooth loss, tooth replacement is necessary, conventionally with complete removable tooth replacement without anchorage. The so-called All-on-4 method offers an alternative: fixation of a removable denture by implantation.

In this case, 4 implants in the lower and 4 in the upper jaw provide the necessary stability and complete fixation of the removable replacement teeth. The procedure is painless, carried out in local anesthesia. A couple weeks long healing period follows the operation while the patient gets a temporary removable replacement. After the healing period, a dental impression is made and within a couple of days, the dental technician's laboratory prepares the final prosthesis.
