Supported on 4 Dental Implants in Kallangur
Is it possible for four implants to restore all of the teeth in the upper or lower jaws? Thanks to modern dental implant technologies, the answer is YES.
It is no secret that tooth loss is common among adults, especially as we age. Many people lose all of their teeth in the upper and/or lower jaw arches.
Instead of living with discomfort and hassle due to removable dentures, many people are choosing what is called the “Supported on 4“, a dental implant restoration concept.
Supported on 4 dental implants* is a practical, graftless solution that provides patients with a fixed full-arch rehabilitation.

Treatable Cases
A significant number of cases treated with Supported on 4 are patients with declining dentition.
Patients with edentulism (toothlessness) are also often qualified for Supported on 4. A thorough evaluation of any patient is necessary to choose the right treatment and to establish a predictable treatment outcome.
Supported on 4: 1 full-arch of teeth, 4 dental implants
To fully understand this concept, you should first know what dental implants are.
Dental implants are tiny titanium screw-like posts that are surgically placed inside your jawbone to replace missing tooth roots.
They are installed through minor surgery. After the dental implants are placed, crowns are attached to give you a natural-looking and functional replacement tooth.
Here’s where it gets fascinating: You don’t need dental implants to replace every missing tooth.
All you need is 4 well-placed implants on the upper arch, and four on the lower arch, to bring back your full smile.
That’s the beauty of the Supported on 4. And because the implants are made of a biocompatible material (titanium), they have the ability to fuse to the existing bone, function as part of it, and cause no adverse reactions.
Eventually, the dental implants fuse with the jawbone and serve as strong, long-lasting anchors for your new teeth.
Aside from ensuring that your dental implants are permanently fixed in place, this osseointegration (bone fusion) has another benefit: it helps prevent future bone loss.
This helps maintaining more youthful facial features—and better oral health. But perhaps the greatest surprise about the Supported on 4 is how fast it can transform your life.
The Supported on 4 Dental Implant Procedure
It can be terrifying to get implants. Most of that fear is probably due to the uncertainty.
Here is the procedure for getting an Supported on 4 implant.
First, your Kallangur dentist will make sure you are relaxed, either local or general anaesthesia will be administered.
Next, your dentist will prepare your mouth for the implants, which involves removing remaining failing teeth and diseased or infected tissue from your jaw and gums.
Then, the implantation process starts. This means they will insert the titanium posts into your jawbone. Most likely, they will place two anterior implants and two posterior implants so the “anchors” can evenly bear the force of the denture.
After the implants have been placed, the surgical sites are cleaned, and all the incisions are sutured. You’ll be taken to a recovery room where you can relax and take time to wake up from the anaesthesia.
Recovery Period
The recovery time after getting conventional dentures can range from 3 to 8 months, but after getting Supported on 4, you should be functioning sooner. This is because the implants integrate into your bone and stabilise the denture on the day of the surgery.
When you arrive home from surgery, make sure you don’t do anything that may disturb the tender areas.
Do not wash or touch the implant site, except for gentle brushing with a very soft toothbrush. Smoking is a very bad idea if you want to heal fast and well.
Although you must be extra gentle, it’s also important to keep your mouth clean. Your dentist will prescribe a medicated rinse to keep bacteria down in your mouth and help promote speedy healing.
