What is the all on 4 in Turkey?

Dental Implants surgery is a process of fitting a prosthesis in the mouth in place of the natural tooth by fixing a prosthetic root in the form of a titanium screw which is placed in the bone of the jaw to hold a crown. All on 4 implants are done more often by dentists, especially periodontists who have undergone through specific training on implantation. The process is also known as “root-form implants” or “osseointegrated implantation” and entails fixing the implant to the jaw; it forms a rather tight bond with the bone tissue. The suitable candidates include those with clean oral health, healthy bones, and those who require fixed teeth replacements due to missing teeth. All on 4 dental implant procedure is similar to the All on 6 method but involves the use of four implants for supporting a full arch of the teeth. Turkey has emerged as a favorite destination for this procedure because of affordable cost but quality health care services. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/381244318_All-on-4_Hybrid_with_Extra-Long_Transnasal_Implants_Descriptions_of_the_Technique_and_Short-Term_Outcomes_in_Three_Cases#fullTextFileContent

What are the all on 4 steps?

All on 4 steps we perform at Simena Dental Clinic are given below.

Initial consultation: First of all, your dentist will conduct an examination and do an X-ray or CT scan to determine your teeth and jawbone health.

Anesthesia: Your dentist will administer local anesthetic to numb the nerve. You won't feel pain during the procedure.

Tooth extractions (if necessary): The teeth that are still present may be decayed, or unhealthy; thus, they are removed to accommodate the implants. Cleaning and shaping are very important so that the implants start affixing to a neat surface which is healthy for the body.

Bone grafting (if required): In some other cases, the jawbone may not be dense or thick enough to allow the implant to be anchored in. So a bone graft will be required. This entails the grafting of the bone material to the jaw to build the jaw strong enough to support the implants. Bone grating is also done in certain cases before the implantation of the dental implants or at the same time as the implant surgery depending on the condition of the patient.

Implant placement: After the so-called mouth preparation, in total four titanium implants are inserted into the jawbone at specially chosen positions. These implants are the fixture for the new teeth they are positioned in such a manner to be strong and sturdy and this is particularly crucial in regions where bone density may be compromised.

Temporary prosthesis: Once the implants are placed, a set of temporary teeth are fixed on it. This is done since you may need to have working teeth as the implants bond with your jawbone over the subsequent few months.

Healing and osseointegration: The healing process may take several months, and in this time the implants embed themselves in the jawbone by a process called osseointegration. This step is important to enable long-term implantation of the suggested that will enhance the stability of the implants.

Final prosthesis: When osseointegration is done, the spare prosthesis is then unscrewed and the permanent adaptation of the set of teeth is fixed. These are the last set of teeth used and are formed to look like natural teeth and are real-looking and strong.

All on 4 aftercare

The recommendations I make to my patients as all on 4 aftercare in the clinic are generally as follows:

The following measures should be taken after your surgery to improve on the chances of a successful All on 4 recovery. To start with, you should follow the instructions given by your dentist, if you’ve been prescribed some pain relievers you should take them, besides, you should apply an ice pack on your face since it helps minimize on the swelling. Especially, you should follow the soft food diet rules that mean that during the first few days after surgery.   One also needs to avoid smoking and taking alcohol as these are some of the things that hinder the body from healing; smoking and using alcohol hinders the flow of blood in the body and slows down the healing process.

It is a general rule that your mouth should be always clean—you should brush your teeth as often as possible and use dental floss, so then bacteria will not infect your body. Some ways to get around this are; During the first few days after the surgery, avoid lying flat, particularly when in bed, this will prevent bruising and better drainage of fluids from the surgery site. Do not participate in any activities or exercise that make contact with the jaw through sports especially anything that can cause a blow to the jaw because maintaining the safety of the implants is essential. Last but not least, if the concerned portion of your mouth, your gums, or teeth are paining constantly, or there are red signals, inflammation, or fever, do not delay to consult the dentist or rush to the emergency.

How painful are All-on-4 dental implants?

All on 4 Turkey is painful during the process since anesthesia is used. 

After the procedure, general discomfort is usually experienced because the anesthesia wears off.  This pain is usually not severe and can be relieved using over-the-counter medications such as ibuprofen, and acetaminophen among others. Any swelling that may be present is also eased by the use of ice packs and cold compresses. Raising the head also helps reduce the chances of oedema which will also contribute to reducing pain. If you have persistent pain you should report to the dentist without delay.

The patients for All on 4 bridge is generally in the age bracket of 50 to 70 years.

This treatment, therefore, comes into practice when one is in their late 40s and early 50s as aging or some other dental complications set in resulting in tooth loss. The procedure is safe for patients of relatively older age, up to a person in their seventies or even beyond the age, provided the patient is in reasonably good health and has adequate bone mass. It is not necessarily the patient’s age that is a limiting factor; it is the overall health of the patient and whether they have bad bones or not. That is why All-on-4 is preferred among elderly patients: it allows returning the functions and esthetic appearance of the teeth.

Can All on 4 implants become loose?

Yes, All on 4 teeth in Turkey may become loose, but it is not very common. There are several reasons; however, poor bone quality is among the most frequent; this hinders implant stability. Some other factors like smoking and poor dental hygiene might cause an infection or some form of gum disease hence making the implant shift. Thirdly, constant pressure on the implants, such as, from bruxism, puts a strain on the connection and it becomes loose in the long run. This can be prevented though by making proper dental visits and proper care of the oral teeth. In case you ever think that your implant is loose, it’s recommended that you see your dentist immediately. Poorly controlled diabetes are a contraindication to dental implants because the mentioned conditions hinder the healing process and can lead to All on 4 failures.

What to eat immediately after surgery?

It is advised to go for gentle foods which would include yogurt, smoothies, mashed potatoes, soups, and so on. These foods are specifically lighter on the surgical areas and it becomes difficult for the tissues to be irritated or damaged in any way. Soft foods also require less chewing, and swallowing thus they do not pose a threat of causing complications to the implants. Hard foods or sticky foods should not be taken after the surgery as they may cause dislodging of the implants or trauma to the surgical site. Soft, easily digestible foods containing vitamins and minerals strengthen the body while not overworking the surgical areas.

How long does All on 4 surgery take?

All-on-4 surgery normally requires between 2 to 4 hours depending on the advancement of the disease and the surgeon at hand.

Duration, however, depends on the procedure that is being done whether it involves tooth extraction or bone grafting among other procedures. A dentist with more experience may do the surgery faster due to his/her experience. Another factor is the status of the bone the healthier and thicker the jawbone, the faster the process will complete.
