Allon4 / Full Dental Implants

Full Dental Implants (also known as Allon4)

This is a breakthrough procedure that allows us to replace your failing teeth with new fixed teeth in just one day. This innovative technique known as Allon4, uses four specially placed dental implants to permanently fix teeth to the jaw. This innovative technique available at our cosmetic dental clinic in Newcastle, uses four specially placed dental implants to permanently fix teeth to the jaw.

How we transform your smile with Allon4 implants

First a special radiograph of the teeth and jaws is taken to assess the bone. Models of the teeth are then taken to study the bite and appearance. The colour, shape and position of the teeth can all be altered to improve the appearance. A bridge is made to replace the failing teeth. This is attached to the four implants.

On the day of treatment a sedative will be used to help you relax. The loose teeth are gently removed and the Allon4 dental implants are placed. Your gums are numb, you will not feel any pain. After a few hours you will be able to go home for a light lunch and a rest. In the meantime your new teeth are being customised in the laboratory. Later in the afternoon, when you return, we will fit your new teeth. This is a quick and easy visit. You can then go home. You will be able to eat on the new teeth immediately.

After 10 weeks the new dental implants will have fused to the bone and a new bespoke bridge can be made. This allows us to further enhance the smile and refine the bite.

The benefits of Allon4

  • The Allon4 treatment is often the most cost effective and quickest way to fix multiple missing teeth, instead of multiple implants.
  • You can receive new teeth a day and be eating on your new teeth by dinnertime.
  • Allon4 uses 4 specifically fused dental implants for a whole row of teeth, saving you time and money.

Common Questions about Dental Implants

How much do Dental Implants cost?

An acrylic bridge costs from £9950 on 3 or 4 implants.

A titanium-reinforced bridge with acrylic teeth allon4 bridge costs from £13,950.

A titanium-reinforced bridge with zirconia and porcelain teeth costs from £16,450.

A titanium-reinforced bridge with individual porcelain teeth costs from £17,950.

Is it possible to have a Full Set of Dental Implants?

If you’re replacing all or most of your teeth it doesn’t need a full set of individual implants. In fact, 4 implants are enough to replace 12 missing teeth and this is usually possible in just one day.

Do Dental Implants hurt?

Generally, there’s some discomfort but this can be managed with over the counter painkillers. Implants usually cause less pain than having a tooth removed.

Can you have Dental Implants with receding gums?

Yes, you can have dental implants with receding gums but it is usually required to treat the receding gums first.

If you have untreated gum disease then it can infect the new implants.
If you have lost a lot of bone through gum disease then you may need to have additional bone grafting.

What types of Dental Implants are there?

There are several types of dental implants but nearly all are made from titanium. The dental implants vary in shape, size and surface texture. Endosteal implants are the most common, they resemble tooth roots in size. Zygomatic implants are very specialized longer implants that embed into the cheekbones. Subperiosteal implants are no longer used.

How long do dental implants last?

Dental implants last for many years if they are carefully cleaned and regularly checked.

1. Clean them
2. Get them checked regularly
3. Don’t smoke
4. Don’t get diabetes

How do I know I need Dental Implants?

You know you need dental implants if you have a gap and are missing a tooth or if you are about to lose a tooth. It’s important to place the dental implant at the correct time after losing a tooth, waiting too long can lead to bone resorption and the need for bone grafting.To qualify for dental implants you need to have healthy gums and sufficient bone.

Can you do the Dental Implants procedure on the same day?

A dental surgeon can often fit a new dental implant on the same day as removing a failed tooth. But if the gum and bone are infected or receded then it’s generally wise to be cautious and let the area heal before fitting the implant.

A one day implant is best considered when the bone is ideal, there is no infection and your bite isn’t too tight or heavy. Sometimes we will also do a one day implant if it’s the only way to restore a smile.

Are Dental Implants worth it?

Dental implants are expensive but, carefully done and well looked after, they can last for decades.

Dentures are by far the cheapest option and sometimes they can look really good but they have to be removed overnight and for cleaning.

Tooth supported bridges are a good alternative but only if the remaining teeth are strong and would benefit from crowning.

Can I have an implant soon after a tooth extraction?

Often it can be fit on the same day as the tooth extraction though sometimes it is better to wait 2 months. If you wait too long then you are more likely to experience bone resorption and require bone grafting.

The extraction has to be done very carefully and gently to avoid damaging the remaining bone. Cleaning away any infection and scar tissue also helps the bone heal better and improves the area ready for an implant.

Is a Dental Implant better than a bridge?

A dental implant is better than a bridge if the nearby teeth don’t need to be capped or aren’t strong enough to carry as a bridge.

The problem with a bridge is that it damages the supporting teeth which can become decayed, break or develop dental abscesses. Research shows that over time the teeth supporting the bridge are more likely to be lost than if the gap had been filled with an implant.
