All-on-4™

All-on-4™ – Fixed dentures with only four dental implants in Berlin

The All-on-4™ method promises edentulous patients fast, relatively inexpensive, and uncomplicated treatment with dental implants and fixed dentures. Until now, it was generally accepted that a fixed bridge to replace all teeth required at least 8 dental implants in the upper jaw and at least 6 in the lower jaw. All-on-4™ requires only 4 implants per jaw.

Fewer implants, lower costs: How to save money with All-on-4™

A major advantage of the All-on-4™ method is the cost-effectiveness of the procedure. While conventional implant-supported full dentures usually require 6 to 8 implants per jaw, the All-on-4™ concept requires only four strategically placed dental implants per jaw. This means fewer implants, shorter surgery times, lower material and laboratory costs – and thus significantly lower overall costs for you as a patient.

Despite the reduced effort, you receive a fixed denture that meets the highest standards in terms of aesthetics, function, and durability. The special angled position of the rear implants allows optimal use of the existing jawbone – without the need for complex bone augmentation measures, which would otherwise incur additional costs and treatment time.

Another cost factor is eliminated by the immediate dentures: Immediately after the implants are inserted, you receive a temporary bridge so that you do not have to rely on prostheses or go through a toothless phase. The final restoration is then carried out after the healing period. This so-called “fixed teeth in a day” concept saves time, additional appointments, and thus further costs.

In short: All-on-4™ is a smart solution for anyone who wants fixed dental prostheses – but without unnecessary implants, long waiting times, or high additional costs. We would be happy to advise you personally on the costs and financing options for your All-on-4™ treatment in Berlin-Zehlendorf.

Implants without bone augmentation: Ideal for thin jawbones

Many patients who have been without teeth for many years or who have poorly fitting dentures have severely receded jawbones. In such cases, complex bone augmentation was previously necessary before implants could even be placed. This is exactly where the All-on-4™ method comes in—with an innovative concept that often does not require any additional bone augmentation.

Instead of inserting many implants vertically, the All-on-4™ technique uses four specially aligned implants per jaw: two of them are inserted straight in the front teeth area, two in the side teeth area at an angle (up to 45°). This angle anchors the implants securely in the existing bone and avoids anatomical risk areas such as the maxillary sinuses or the nerve canal in the lower jaw. The result: stability even with reduced bone availability – without additional surgery.

This method is particularly advantageous for patients who want fast, minimally invasive, and predictable treatment. By eliminating the need for bone augmentation, the treatment time is shortened, the risk of complications is reduced, and the costs for implant treatment remain significantly lower compared to conventional procedures.

If you are unsure whether you have sufficient bone substance for implants, we will be happy to advise you. Thanks to modern 3D diagnostics and digital volume tomography (DVT), we can precisely analyze the bone situation and offer you a customized solution with All-on-4™ – even if you have very narrow jawbones.

FAQs about the All-on-4™ method

What is the All-on-4™ method and how does it work?

The All-on-4™ method is an innovative concept for treating edentulous jaws with fixed dentures—using only four dental implants per jaw. Two implants are inserted straight in the front area and two at an angle in the side area to make optimal use of the existing jawbone. This enables stable anchoring without the need for complex bone augmentation. Particularly practical: in many cases, patients receive a temporary bridge on the same day – hence the name “Fixed Teeth in a Day.”

How much does All-on-4™ treatment cost, and does health insurance cover the costs?

The cost of All-on-4™ treatment varies depending on the individual's initial situation, materials, and complexity. However, All-on-4™ is significantly more cost-effective than conventional implant solutions, as only four implants are required and bone augmentation is often not necessary. Statutory health insurance companies usually only cover a fixed subsidy for dental prostheses. We would be happy to advise you at our practice in Berlin-Zehlendorf on the costs of the All-on-4™ method and possible financing options.

How long does treatment with All-on-4™ implants take?

Treatment with All-on-4™ implants can often be completed in just one day. This means that teeth can be extracted (if necessary), implants inserted, and a temporary bridge fitted—all in a single appointment. After a healing phase of about 3 to 6 months, the final fixed denture is then inserted. This quick treatment makes All-on-4™ particularly attractive for patients who want fixed teeth quickly and don't want to wait long for their new quality of life.
