Why is All on 4 dental implants cost-effective?

Medical basis: All-on-4 technical essence by Professor Paulo Malo

To understand whyAll-on dental implants- 4considered a "revolution" in modern dentistry, we first need to look at the anatomical picture of people with long-term tooth loss. When natural teeth are lost, the jawbone can no longer bear the stimulating force from the tooth roots during chewing, leading to extremely rapid biological bone loss.

• In the function above:Bone gradually resorbs vertically, causing the maxillary sinus to lower close to the ridge of the jaw.

• In the lower jaw:Flat bone resorption causes the lower dental nerve canal to gradually appear closer to the surface.

For the classic single implant technique, placing vertical posts in the back tooth area (tooth number 6, tooth number 7) is impossible at this time without undergoing complex major surgery such as open sinus lift, autologous bone graft or artificial bone compression to create biological space for the post.

All-on-4 dental implant technique, invented in 1998 byProfessor Paulo Malo(Malo Clinic, Portugal), has completely changed this situation with an intelligent multi-point spatial geometry and mechanical solution. Instead of needing 8 to 12 posts, this technique only uses 4 Titanium Implant posts per jaw to support an entire bridge consisting of 12 fixed dentures.

Professor. Dr. Paulo Malo is the inventor of the full-mouth tooth restoration techniqueAll-on-4, a solution that has helped millions of patients with complete tooth loss around the world restore chewing function and aesthetics. He is also the founderMalo Dental, a global dental network with more than 20 clinics in many countries.

Besides clinical activities, Professor. Dr. Paulo Malo is also a lecturer at many prestigious universities, owns many patents and is the author of more than 60 research projects published in prestigious international scientific journals.

Lac Viet Intech's team of doctors is honored to participate in intensive training programs led by Professor. Dr. Paulo Malo and experts from the Malo Dental system organized and updated modern treatment principles in full-mouth implant restoration and applied them to treatment practice.

The mechanism for distributing and positioning pillars is precisely calculated in 3-dimensional space including:

• 2 Front Implants (Location of tooth number 2 or tooth number 3):Planted vertically parallel to each other90∘. This is the front jaw bone area (aesthetic area), where stem cell density and bone volume are always best preserved, with the least loss, even in older people who have lost teeth for many years.

• 2 Rear Implants (Location of tooth number 4 or tooth number 5):This is the core of the invention. Instead of straight implants, these 2 pillars are placed at a standard angle from30∘-45∘ towards the back.

The 45-degree tilt mechanism for placing the 2 pillars helps fully support the jaw without completely encroaching on the maxillary sinus or nerve.

Outstanding clinical benefits of the tilted pillar placement mechanism:

• Avoid risky anatomical structures:Insertion angle The pillar is approximately30–45 degrees, helping to make the most of the remaining bone in the frontal area, increasing the initial stability of the Implant, while avoiding interference with the maxillary sinus and the lower dental nerve canal.

• Elimination of major auxiliary surgeries:By taking full advantage of the remaining natural bone base, elderly customers or people with stable underlying diseases (such as diabetes, controlled high blood pressure) can completely skip surgical steps. Painful sinus lift and bone graft surgery. This helps minimize the risk of swelling, post-operative infection and accelerates the healing process.

• Excellent mechanical bearing support:Mechanically, these 4 Implant pillars form a sturdy isosceles trapezoid. When the upper prosthetic fixed bridge system is screwed in, the chewing force will be evenly distributed to the 4 corners, completely eliminating the twisting force that causes bone loss in the Implant neck, helping you chew strong and naturally like real teeth.

Why are all-on-4 dental implants cost-effective?

When consulting on full-mouth restoration solutions, many people worry that a modern method like All-on-4 will be extremely expensive. However, if placed on a comparative scale in terms of dental economics, All-on-4 is a cost-saving and financially optimal solution when customers lose their entire jaw.

From a professional perspective, this economic problem is thoroughly solved thanks to the following 3 core reasons:

1. Reduce the number of Implants - Significantly optimize material costs

The cost of a full-mouth dental implant depends largely on the number of Implants and Abutment joints used.

In traditional restoration methods, patients often need8–10 Implants, or even more to support the entire fixed set of teeth. This means that material costs increase significantly because each genuine implant has a high value.

Meanwhile, the All-on-4 technique takes advantage of the principle of placing the two rear posts at the appropriate angle to expand the support area and distribute chewing force effectively. Thanks to that, with only4 Implant posts, the system can still support the entire fixed prosthesis on the jaw.

All-on-4 technique minimizes the maximum number of posts, helping customers reduce the burden of material costs.

Economic efficiency:Reducing the number of posts from 8–10 to 4 helps significantly save on Implant material costs, while still ensuring chewing ability and stability of the implant. Full jaw restoration according to professional instructions.

In other words, All-on-4 is not only a less invasive solution for restoring missing teeth, but also helps more patients access Implant treatment at a more reasonable cost than traditional implant methods.

2. Limit costs for auxiliary procedures (Sinus lift, bone graft)

A cost trap that many customers encounter when consulting Implant prices in non-specialized dentistry is the cost arising from auxiliary procedures.

In older people who have lost teeth for a long time or have severe jaw bone loss, if following the traditional straight post method, the doctor is required to prescribe the following techniques:

• Artificial bone graft or autologous bone graft iliac crest/mandibular angle.

• Closed sinus lift or open sinus lift (for the upper jaw).

Costs for these procedures are often calculated individually for each area or gram of bone, ranging from several million to several tens of million VND, causing the total actual treatment cost to be greatly increased compared to the original advertised price.

As analyzed in the medical basis section, the All-on-4 technique makes the most of the good jaw bone areas on the front to place. inclined pillar. Therefore, customerssave the cost of bone grafting and sinus lift. The amount you see on the full dental implant price list is the final amount you have to pay.

3. "One-time investment, long-term use"

To clearly see the economics of All-on-4, let's do a cost comparison over time with the traditional removable denture solution:

Removable dentures are essentially a solution that "seems cheap but turns out to be expensive" because you have to pay many times in your life, not to mention having to endure looseness and pain when chewing. Meanwhile, All-on-4 Implant is a smart investment - buy once, use forever, helping to completely eliminate future costs.

Advice from experts:In order for All-on-4 full-mouth dental implants to truly take advantage of the cost-saving advantage of "do it once, use it for life", the decisive factor lies in the quality of bone integration of the abutment and the tightness of the prosthetic gum restoration. If the technique is performed incorrectly and leads to the removal of the cylinder, the cost of overcoming the consequences will be huge. You should prioritize dentists that apply digital technology to control risks right from the first surgical step.
