A Permanent Alternative to Traditional Dentures
For patients who have lost most or all of their teeth, traditional removable dentures have long been the only option. However, traditional dentures often come with significant drawbacks: they can slip while speaking, cause sore spots on the gums, and severely limit the types of food you can eat.
Thanks to breakthroughs in modern oral surgery, you no longer have to settle for removable teeth. Novo Care is proud to offer All-on-4 dental implants in Ethiopia, a revolutionary technique that provides a permanent, non-removable set of teeth in a minimal number of visits.
1. What is the All-on-4 Concept?
The “All-on-4” technique is a specialized form of full mouth rehabilitation in Addis Ababa. Instead of replacing each missing tooth with a separate implant (which would require 14+ implants per jaw), our Oral Surgeon strategically places just four high-strength titanium implants into areas of the jaw with the highest bone density.
These four pillars are strong enough to permanently support an entire arch (upper or lower row) of custom-crafted, natural-looking replacement teeth.
2. The Life-Changing Benefits of All-on-4
✔ They Never Come Out: Unlike dentures, an All-on-4 bridge is permanently fixed in your mouth. You brush them just like natural teeth.
✔ Restored Biting Power: You regain up to 95% of your natural chewing ability. Say goodbye to soft-food diets and denture adhesives.
✔ Palate-Free Comfort: Upper dentures cover the roof of your mouth, dulling your sense of taste. All-on-4 leaves the roof of your mouth completely uncovered.
✔ Bone Grafting is Often Avoided: Because the implants are placed at specific angles, this technique frequently eliminates the need for expensive and time-consuming bone grafts.
3. The Journey to a New Smile
At our advanced clinic near Lem Hotel, the process is streamlined for your comfort:
- Comprehensive 3D Mapping: We use advanced imaging to find the absolute best anchor points in your jaw.
- Surgical Placement: The implants are securely placed. In many cases, patients can leave the clinic on the very same day with a temporary, fixed set of teeth.
- The Final Masterpiece: Once your jaw has fully healed, your permanent, custom-designed arch is attached, completely transforming your facial aesthetics and function.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q1. Who is the ideal candidate for All-on-4?
Patients who currently wear full dentures or those who have widespread tooth decay and failing teeth are the best candidates for this life-changing procedure. Q2. How do I clean my new teeth?
You will brush them twice a day just like natural teeth. We also recommend using a water flosser to easily clean beneath the fixed bridge.
