Do you suffer from severe bone loss?

For patients suffering from tooth loss, edentulism, with severe bone loss there is a better solution than sinus lift, bone grafting and zygomatic dental implants that can provoke chronic sinusitis. The All on 4 Xtra dental restoration system avoids passing through the sinuses and uses instead Pterygoid Dental Implants that are fixed behind the sinuses.

Do you suffer from advanced gum disease?

For patients suffering from advanced gum disease, periodontitis, the short conventional dental implants used in All-on-4 are too short and placed in the soft spongy bone that is in the process of resorption due to gum disease. All on 4 Xtra uses Basal Dental Implants that are fixed in the hard cortical bone of the jaw and therefore do not rely on the soft spongy bone.

What is All on 4 Xtra?

All on 4 Xtra is an upgrade that resolves the shortcomings of the All on 4 system for the full mouth dental restoration of patients who suffer from bone loss.

It adds more implants at the back of the jaws to recreate the natural function of the mouth. It gives you a full set of 14 teeth to chew normally and smile with confidence.

The dental implants are longer and go through the spongy bone tissues prone to resorption from tooth loss and gum disease to be fixed in the hard cortical bone of the jaw to provide a solid base.

It takes less time to complete the full mouth dental restoration, only 1 visit of 5 days, because the implant dentist uses immediate-loading basal dental implants.

Why so few dentists practice All on 4 Xtra?

All on 4 Xtra requires additional technical skills from the implant dentist. Tubero pterygoid dental implants like basal dental implants in general require a much higher level of knowledge and skill than conventional implantology practiced for All-on-4.

The tubero pterygoid dental implants are necessary to facilitate chewing with the molar teeth and recreate the natural functionality of the mouth. It avoids going through the sinuses with zygomatic dental implants that can cause chronic sinusitis. And it also avoids a sinus lift that most often is not successful for patients suffering from bone atrophy. Finally, these implants behind the sinuses provide very strong support for the full dental bridge of 14 crowns to give you a full set of teeth.

Why is All-on 4 Xtra cheaper?

The All-on-4 system uses conventional dental implants, which are very expensive because the profit margins of conventional dental implant producers and the dentists who practice this technique are huge.

The new All-on-4 Xtra system uses immediate loading basal dental implants. Like conventional implants, they are also made of titanium, but the profit margins are more reasonable. For the patient, this means that full mouth dental restoration and the right to eat and smile are affordable.
