The All-on-4 implant protocol and single implant protocol differ significantly in terms of timing, particularly in how quickly the restoration can be completed and the healing process involved. Here’s a breakdown of the key differences:

Tilted implants are a crucial component of the All-on-4 treatment concept for dental implants. This technique involves placing four implants in the anterior part of completely edentulous jaws, with two straight anterior implants and two posterior implants tilted up to 45° to avoid anatomical structures. Tilted implants allow for longer implants, improved prosthetic support with shorter cantilever arms, better inter-implant distance, and enhanced anchorage in the bone.

D-r Rafid Hussain, the head dental implant surgeon at Sofia Implant Centre, recently performed  the first-ever pterygoid implant surgery in Bulgaria. This achievement follows the trans-sinus surgery recently performed by D-r Hussain and the team of Sofia Implant Centre. This all was made possible through the use of surgical guides and innovative digital protocols, which allowed for highly precise placement of dental implants in the pterygoid bone, providing a secure foundation for a full-arch restoration based on 6 implants (ALL-ON-6).
