All on 4 Dental Implants at Mukha

This revolutionary concept introduced by Nobel Biocare is a boon for patients who have compromised bone in the upper and the lower jaws.

Based on the tilted implant concept the last implants avoid maxillary sinus in the upper jaw and the inferior alveolar and mental nerves in the lower jaw. This is a graftless technique, where based on only 4 implants placed in each jaw, fixed bridges can be placed.

Who is a suitable candidate for all on four dental implants?

When somebody has lost signficant amount of jaw bone or when somebody is wearing dentures for many years, severe resorption takes place. The bone bed can be augmented with either bone grafting or sinus lift procedures. The all on 4 concept avoids these adjuvant procedures such as bone grafting and sinus lifts by tilting the last implant where in the implants are still placed in the front portion of the jaws avoiding damage to the nerve structures or entering into the maxillary sinus.
