Revolutionary Dental implant treatment all on the same day

Why choose All-on-4?

When all of the teeth in a jaw are missing or the remaining teeth are beyond repair and a patient does not want to wear a removable denture, it is often possible to place a full set of fixed, new teeth using the All-On-4 technique.

All-On-4 can be a perfectly suitable solution for people who have worn dentures for a long time as well as people with only a few wobbly or broken teeth remaining in their mouths.

At Holmes Dental Care in Whitchurch, Cardiff we have been using the All-On-4 system for many years and consider it a highly effective implant solution for replacing missing teeth. All-On-4 is a durable and attractive solution to complete tooth loss and enables patients to rediscover the simple joys in life of chewing, talking and laughing with natural ease.

Life changing procedure

The All-On-4 technique uses four dental implants to support a fixed bridge replacing a full arch of upper or lower teeth (or both). All-On-4 is a system by which just four strategically placed dental implants in each of the upper and lower dental arches can anchor a full mouth of prosthetic teeth arches in place permanently, meaning uncomfortable, loose-fitting dentures that need to be removed nightly are a thing of the past.

This procedure is life changing for patients who may have been advised they have insufficient bone to support dental implants, or for patients who are unhappy with their current dentures or worn out bridgework.

Benefits of All-On-4 treatment

  • No more dentures
  • Improved social confidence
  • You will be able to taste food again, as the top of the mouth is not covered by a denture palate
  • Natural function and strength will be restored
  • The use of bone grafting is normally avoided which reduces the need for complex surgery
  • The use of just 4 implants in each jaw can reduce overall costs
  • High success rate and minimal discomfort or pain with this technique

All-On-4 is increasingly the preferred option for restoring a toothless mouth to full working order. Over the past few years Holmes Dental Care has been steadily building a reputation as a centre of excellence in Implant dentistry. Our principal dentist Dr Barry Holmes has unmatched experience in this technique in the Cardiff area and is available to provide this treatment on every day of the working week.

Am I a suitable candidate?

Usually yes, everyone who is considered healthy is typically suitable for dental implants. With modern 3D CT scanning technology, and our ability to regrow bone when necessary, nobody should think that dental implants are not possible for them and persevere with a loose or uncomfortable denture.

There are several different types of implants that can deal with different scenarios. If there is not enough bone we can stimulate and grow the bone in a procedure called guided bone regeneration (GBR) or bone grafting. There is also no age limit to implant dentistry. At Holmes Dental Care we welcome anyone from the ages of 21-80yrs+ be it after accidents, tooth extractions or following general tooth loss.

How do All-On-4 Dental Implants compare to traditional implants?

The All-On-4 procedure uses only 4 implants to replace all teeth on an upper or lower arch. The angled placement of the implants of the All-On-4 procedure allows for increased support by using the natural support of the bone. Traditional implants procedures often require bone grafting, a process that can take 6 months or more. The All-On-4 technique requires no bone grafting for most patients, with a success rate that is equal to or better than conventional implants.

How long does the All-On-4 Procedure take?

After the initial consultation and full diagnostic planning process involving scans and models, the implants and new teeth will be placed often all in one appointment, even if extractions are needed. With All-On-4 treatment, it’s possible to arrive at the practice with failing (or no) teeth and leave the very same day with a beautiful set of fixed, functional teeth.

Before & After

My first implant has been completed today – a lower left 5 premolar. Barry and his staff have taken care to make it a pleasant experience and kept me well-informed and comfortable throughout. My thanks to them all.

Dr JC, had implants

I had lost a few back teeth over the last few years and I’ve been aware and very conscious of the gaps. I had a plate put in place but it proved to be uncomfortable and cumbersome in the mouth. Over the last year, I’ve undergone treatment for 2 implants which are now complete. I have had an amazing experience. I’ve been looked after well by Barry and all the staff involved in the process. Just having my new teeth is fantastic. This will give me new confidence and a fabulous new smile. Thank you.

SD, had implants

Dear Barry,

I am writing to you with regard to the treatment that I needed to be done to my front teeth because my former dentist had done a really bad job on my teeth that it caused me to look for another to set it right.

When I first visited your practice there was a warm welcome from your staff and when I started my treatment that was done over a period of time it was done in a very professional manner and in a nice clean surgery. I was informed every step of the way what was going to be done and I am very pleased with the result.

I would like to say a very big thank you to you an your staff for the work done and support given to me over the course of my treatment and would recommend you to others.
