Am I a Candidate for the “All-On-4” Procedure Making New Teeth in New Jersey a Possibility - PART 1

This two-part article series provides an overview of what makes a patient the ideal candidate for the “All-On-4” dental implant protocol and what factors might compromise candidacy.

Since its conception in the early 1990’s, the “All-on-4” dental implant protocol has changed the lives of thousands of New Jersey residents: people who previously had to cope with the challenges and crippling loss of self-esteem that comes with a life without most or all of one’s natural teeth. Conventional removable dentures have, for hundreds of years, provided edentulous and near-edentulous people with a solution, but one that is incredibly limited and with more than its fair share of problems. 

With the introduction of dental implants to the market in the 20th Century, dentists were able to provide patients with new fixed teeth, but only after an expensive and painful journey of 12 to 18 months. That all changed in 1993 when the “All-On-4” was introduced to the market, which now makes it possible for people to get new teeth in New Jersey, in as little as one day.

So... are you a candidate? In this two-part article series, we shall be exploring the problems facing traditional dental implant techniques, which is why many New Jersey residents believe they are not candidates for fixed oral rehabilitation. Then, in Part 2, an experienced “All-On-4” Stamford dental implants specialist will describe the perfect candidate for this procedure and what health issues might potentially get in the way.

The Challenges Facing Traditional Dental Implant Techniques

The “All-On-4™” is a unique dental implant protocol specifically designed to cater to New Jersey residents who have lost most or all of their natural teeth to periodontal (gum) disease. If this applies to you and if you currently wear partial or full removable dentures, then the “All-On-4” is most definitely a teeth replacement solution you should consider. The problem is, many New Jersey residents in need of new teeth have been told by their dentists that they are not candidates for dental implants because they have gone without natural teeth for so long. As a result, their jawbones have atrophied to such an extent that they don’t have the volume to accommodate implants.

The great news is that the “All-On-4” was innovated for these people. The technique’s designer, Dr. Paulo Malo, discovered that through the strategic placement of only four dental implants in regions of the mouth that naturally contain a greater volume of more atrophy-resistant bone tissue, enough support could indeed be provided for a fixed and non-removable dental bridge. The locations of these implants are typically in the front of the mouth and at the back, in the region of the second and third molars (see image below).

Using sophisticated diagnostic equipment and computer imaging software, “All-On-4” specialists in New Jersey are able to determine the perfect and most stable configuration of implants so that patients can receive a brand new set of teeth in as little as a single dental appointment. What this means is that no matter how long you have been wearing dentures for, you should be able to get new teeth in New Jersey in as little as one day! And even if you have lost a substantial amount of bone volume to gum disease, there are creative solutions to be found. Bone grafting is typically avoided by the “All-On-4”, which saves patients money and time in recovery, but if necessary, it can make it possible for patients to get new fixed teeth.

New Teeth in a Day! Where’s the Catch? There Isn’t One!

This article explains how the “All-On-4™” dental implant protocol makes it possible for patients to go from being edentulous (toothless) to having new teeth in just one day!

There are currently tens of millions of people in the United States who are living without most or all of their original teeth. Countless more are facing an immediate future of a state referred to as “edentulism” - not having a single natural tooth left in your mouth. The most common cause of tooth loss is tooth decay and periodontitis: an advanced bacterial infection of the gums, also known as gum disease.

Removable dentures have been the preferred method of teeth replacement for millions of Americans because, for many years, the alternative approach using dental implants would take as many as 12 or even 18 months in and out of surgery. The associated costs of repeat procedures would also work out to be exorbitantly high. This was until the innovation of a new dental implant protocol designed to give patients new teeth in a day.

Where’s the catch? There isn’t one!

How the “All-On-4™” Works

The picture above illustrates, in concept, how the “All-On-4™” dental implant technique works. Through the precise and strategic placement of four dental implants, qualified dental healthcare specialists can provide patients with new teeth in the form of a prosthetic dental bridge. Instead of replacing tooth by tooth in a series of dental implant surgeries, which need to be spread out over the course of a year to a year-and-a-half, this entire procedure can be done in just one day, in a single appointment.

That’s right; the “All-On-4™” can give candidates new teeth in a day.

How the protocol manages this is:

1. Through the use of only four dental implants in order to give patients new teeth. This can easily be achieved in just one procedure.


2. Through the use of 3-D Cone Beam CT scans and sophisticated computer software to visualize the patient’s unique case and meticulously plan treatment ahead of surgery.


3. The avoidance of bone grafting surgery through the strategic choice of implant sites in regions of the jaw that are naturally more resistant to atrophy and so contain sufficient bone volume to support implants. Bone grafting would otherwise require several months in recovery before a patient can even receive new teeth.

These key factors, coupled with the incredible advancements that have been made in the field of fixed oral rehabilitation and dental implant surgery, and the skill and experience of the oral surgeons and prosthodontists who make it happen, explain how it’s possible for patients to get new teeth in a day. Even better, owing to the fewer number of implants and surgeries and the fact that the “All-On-4™” seldom requires bone grafting beforehand, the cost of new teeth is also greatly reduced!

A Final Note on the “All-On-4™”

The “All-On-4™” protocol is regarded as a “breakthrough” in the field of dental implantology for many reasons, but perhaps most especially because it can give patients new teeth in just one day. With only one surgery needed and as little as a few days spent in recovery, this amazing procedure is helping to rehabilitate America’s millions of edentulous and near-edentulous citizens. And at a cost that is very affordable!

How a Humble Dental Implant Procedure Makes New Teeth in Rutherford NJ Possible in ONE DAY, PART 2

This two-part article series talks about the “All-On-4™” dental implant protocol and how it is able to give most patients new, non-removable teeth in a single day.

Welcome to this, the second installment of a two-part article series on “All-On-4™” dental implants and how this ingenious procedure makes it possible for patients to get new teeth in one day! We ended our previous article post explaining how, through the careful and strategic placement of only four dental implants in the jawbone, new teeth specialists in Rutherford NJ can provide patients with a full set of prosthetic teeth in a single dental appointment. We then explained the challenges typically presented by these patients (those who had lost a lot of jawbone volume as a result of tooth loss and subsequent atrophy of the hard tissue surrounding the teeth) and how this was traditionally remedied by an additional procedure known as bone-grafting.

In this article, we shall explain the various problems this procedure comes hand-in-hand with, as well as the other challenges that the older dental implant techniques would cause patients and oral surgeons alike. Of course, the goal we mustn’t lose sight of is to explain how the “All-On-4™” makes it possible for patients to get new teeth in one day.

The Problem with Bone Grafting Is...

It takes months for your jawbone to heal before you can even go back to the dental implant facility to receive your new teeth! The surgery required to augment the jawbone is also extremely invasive and painful, not to mention expensive. This is why new teeth specialists in Rutherford NJ would do what they could to avoid bone grafting in the first place, but in many cases it was simply unavoidable. With the advent of the “All-On-4™”, however, bone grafting became largely obsolete and even patients who had been toothless and/or denture-wearers for many years could skip the need for it, enabling them to immediately get new teeth. In monopoly terms, this would be akin to: “pass GO and collect $200.”

Other Factors that Make New Teeth in One Day Possible

It wasn’t only the avoidance of bone grafting that made the “All-On-4™” technique so very efficient in its approach to giving patients new teeth. The procedure only calls for the use of four dental implants, which can quite easily be placed in a single surgery. To give you an idea of just how much of an improvement this was, consider that traditional dental implant techniques would require 6, 8 or even 10 implants per jaw for fixed oral rehabilitation!

A procedure of this magnitude typically couldn’t be done in a single sitting, which is why patients would undergo multiple surgeries spaced out over the period of 12 to 18 months. That’s a long time to wait for new teeth, not to mention an incredibly expensive and painful journey to undertake. Thankfully, with “All-On-4™” dental implants, this journey is no longer necessary.

A Final Note on the “All-On-4™”

By skipping the need for bone grafting surgery in almost 100% of patient cases, the “All-On-4™” provides new teeth specialists in Rutherford NJ with an efficient and far cheaper way to give patients a new set of teeth in one day. This protocol also undercuts traditional dental implant techniques by tens of thousands of dollars making it today’s standard of care for those who have lost all of their natural teeth or are on the verge of doing so.
