These conditions can be the cause of different problems for patients, from purely functional ones, related to chewing and regular bite function, to psychological ones, related to the aesthetic factor and the way individuals perceive themselves in the mirror.
The lack of one or more dental elements may in fact be a cause of embarrassment or shame, reasons that, often more than others, lead patients to come to us. What we aim to do, therefore, is not only to restore a patient's beautiful smile, but also to restore lost self-confidence and security.
Therefore, within the Savasta practice we offer effective and permanent solutions to the problems of dental agenesis or edentulism.
In fact, our dental medical staff, ready to assist you and recommend the best remedies, is highly trained and specialized in the latest generation of implant surgeries designed to put a definitive end to the kind of unpleasant situations described above.
Also playing an instrumental role on the implantology front recently has been the new All on Six implant technique, which, together with All on Four, represents a valuable step forward in this area.
What does All on Six implantology consist of?
When we talk about All on Six implantology, we refer to that innovative dental technique involving the implantation of ARTIFICIAL teeth in the arch by adopting fixed metal brackets and posts.
This kind of surgery, which can be categorized as minimally invasive, is a definitive solution to the lack of one or more dental elements, precisely because it is a stable implant embedded in bone.
Any type of patient can resort to All on Six implantology, but always only after careful evaluation of the individual case by the doctor, who will be happy to judge the situation and suggest a solution.
This particular implantology technique has a series of steps that are crucial to the success of the entire operation:
- extraction of any teeth within the arch, which is followed by immediate removal of possible oral infections;
- the insertion of 6 IMPLANTS (PINS) in the arch, which represent the structure of the implant on which the dentist will then work;
- the application of the provisional prosthesis, which is intended to protect the 6 inserted metal implants;
- The application of fixed and definitive prosthesis.
The All on Six technique and the All on Four technique thus follow the same method. The only difference between the two is that in the former case we especially target patients who are totally devoid of teeth.
In fact, in this circumstance, keeping in mind that the technique uses 6 pins, one is able to cover the entire arch, so as to recreate a dentition that reflects a normal situation.
The greatest benefit of the All on Six technique lies precisely in the decisive resolution of the problem, achieved by the installation in a single session of temporary teeth with immediate loading.
Replacement with fixed prostheses then occurs retrospectively (usually during the first 3-6 months after the initial operation), with timing, however, varying from case to case.
What are the advantages of All on Six implantology?
The advantages of All on Six over more common removable dentures are obvious: in addition to giving a better aesthetic appearance to the patient by more closely reproducing the features of a natural dentition, it does not generate inconveniences such as poor stability of the teeth in the mouth or the need to have to remove the denture to perform daily oral hygiene actions.
Wanting to summarize the advantages of this type of planting, we can say that:
- All on Six implantology allows the reduction of time for the osteo-regeneration phase to be completed;
- allows for an excellent result in a single session with a minimally invasive procedure;
- is a good investment because it has low cost despite quality results.
To whom is All on Six implantology addressed?
All on Six is ideal for all individuals who experience some discomfort in not being able to show off a full smile; we refer to all patients who are missing dental elements and want to regain lost confidence.
Another target audience is definitely patients who have resorted to more traditional solutions, such as removable dentures, and who are tired of the daily discomfort these can bring.
