As a dentist, I recommend the following steps to ensure the success of your All on 4 dental implant procedure and minimize complications:

• Consult with your dentist: Before the All-on-4 procedure is carried out, it is recommended to comprehend all the details in the process, which makes it possible to prepare adequately and avoid disappointments.
• Disclose all medications: It is also important to tell your dentist about all medications that you are taking including blood thinners, the dentist is capable of preventing the adverse effects of medications and minimizes the risk of excessive bleeding in the surgical procedures.
• Pause blood thinners: Discontinuation of blood thinners for a short period under the doctor’s advice can decrease further bleeding that complicates the procedure.
• Avoid eating and drinking: It is recommended to fast for at least 6-8 hours before an operation because anesthesia can cause aspiration.
• Cease smoking: Smoking is prohibited several days before the surgery because it contributes to poor blood circulation and prevents proper implantation of the implant.
• Avoid alcohol: Preoperative teetotaling optimizes healing and minimizes the probability of adverse phenomena since alcohol weakens the body’s protective abilities.
• Maintain oral hygiene: Brushing, flossing, and use of antibacterial mouthwash lowers the chances of introducing an infection to the area an important factor for the success of the implants.
• Undergo preoperative assessments: There is always the need to use X-ray and CT scans to check on the condition of the bones and whether one will require a bone graft to hold the implants.
• Understand potential risks: Risk and complications understanding leads to decision-making and hence can improve the chances of success of the treatment.

What are the steps for All-on-4?

The All on 4 dental implants turkey that we have performed on patients coming to Elysium Dental in Antalya consists of the following All on 4 steps. Depending on the patient's condition, extra procedures such as tooth extraction, and bone graft placement in the jawbone can be performed if needed.

• Medical history instruction and consultation are performed to assess the patient’s general health and appropriateness for dental implants.
• To evaluate the necessary access of the jawbone and reveal crucial topographic features, X-rays or dental computed tomography are made.
• An architectural plan is designed digitally with the aid of CAD/CAM to establish the positions of dental implants that will be most suitable.
• Local anesthesia is given to block the sensory nerves of the area of surgery and hence the patient does not experience pain during the process.
• The important step of the procedure is creating a surgical guide from the digital plan-implement used to accurately place the implants.
• Aplication is carried out to create some flaps of the gum that expose the jaws’ bones at the implant sites.
• Tiny holes are made on the jaw bone to accommodate the implants.
• Two anchor screws that hold the permanent denture are inserted into the central incisors and the remaining two are at the backward angle and in the posterior area.

Telescopic crowns are cemented onto the implants, and this will give the patient functional teeth after the surgery.

Recovery starts and the implants osseointegrate into the jaw for 3-6 months.

Some check-up examinations are made to assess the organizational state of the healing process and integration of the implants.

Once osseointegration has been established, special molds of the patient’s mouth are then made to fabricate the fixed prosthesis.

It provides a permanent esthetic solution once the custom-made permanent prosthesis is screwed to the implant abutments.

Instructions about the proper care and cleaning of implants and prostheses are given to the patients, as well as, constant dental check-ups.

How to look after All-on-4 dental implants?

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

• Take any prescribed painkillers and follow your dentist’s advice on their usage; apply an ice pack to the area to minimize swelling. Cold press assists in reducing inflammation and slows down circulation to the injured area.
• It is advised to stick to a soft food diet for several days after the procedure on the new implants. Soft foods do not apply pressure on the implants; this assists in proper osseointegration when healing.
• It is extremely important to quit smoking and abstain from alcoholic beverages to guarantee the best healing outcome. Smoking narrows the blood vessels and hinders the process of wound healing and alcohol delays or slows down all the stages of healing.
• Do keep your teeth clean to minimize the amount of infections; brush your teeth daily and use dental floss. Proper dental hygiene keeps the bacteria and plague away hence minimizing the chances of peri-implantitis and other diseases.
• It is recommended that patients elevate the head for the initial three to five days in an attempt to prevent or minimize swelling. Elevation aids in reducing swelling because it assists in the efficient removal of fluids from the operative site.
• Exclude sports that may result in a blow to the jaw that may damage the implants. The stability and success of the implants depend on the protection of the jaw from any kind of injury.
• Always visit your dentist or go to the emergency dental treatment clinic if you feel persistent pain at the site of the dental treatment or if you have the following symptoms; infection signs, or high fever.

How painful are All-on-4 dental implants?

All on 4 Turkey does not involve pain during the procedure as patients are given local anesthesia.

Following the procedure, patients may only have mild soreness that lasts between 2 days to 3 days in the following week, which resolves as the patient heals. Ice pack application decreases the blood flow resulting in reduced swelling while avoiding bending of the head in an attempt to drain the fluids also works by limiting fluid accumulation allowing fast recovery. As for the pain, using the appropriate medications including non-prescription pain relievers like ibuprofen or acetaminophen will relieve this. In case of persistent or severe pain, it is required to call the dentist as it might be a sign of the emergence of some complications.

I recommend my patient avoid showering for at least one day to allow the first stage of wound healing to occur.
