Dental implants are prosthetics that serve as the roots of missing teeth. The implants are surgically placed in the jawbone and are made of titanium. The implants fuse with your jawbone and the titanium materials won’t decay like your natural teeth can.
Traditionally, if you did not have sufficient bone mass in your jaws, the only option was bone graft surgery to regenerate enough bone mass to create a sufficient foundation for traditional dental implants. Now there are revolutionary dental implant techniques that eliminate the need for bone grafting altogether. Zygomatic Implants are a graftless dental implant technique where the implant is directly embedded in your cheekbones (referred to as Zygoma), where there is enough bone support for the implants.
The All-on-4® treatment was developed to provide edentulous patients with an efficient and effective restoration. The reason why the treatment is so effective is because it only uses four implants: two straight implants in the anterior and two angled implants in the posterior to support a provisional, fixed and immediately loaded full-arch prosthesis.
