Risks & Recovery
Possible risks include:
- Swelling, bruising or discomfort in the days following surgery

- Infection or delayed healing in rare cases
- Risk of implant failure if proper healing does not occur
- Nerve irritation or sinus involvement, depending on implant placement
Recovery considerations:

- Full osseointegration of implants typically requires several months
- Patients are advised to follow a soft diet during early healing and attend all follow-up visits
FAQS
How is All-Teeth-On-Four different from traditional dentures?
All-Teeth-On-Four offers a fixed, stable treatment compared to traditional removable dentures. The implants provide a secure foundation, preventing slipping and allowing you to eat, speak, and smile freely. Unlike dentures, this procedure helps preserve bone density and offers a more natural appearance.
Is the procedure painful?
The procedure is performed under anaesthesia to ensure your comfort. Post-procedure discomfort typically manageable with over-the-counter pain relief. Our team will provide detailed aftercare instructions to support your recovery.
How long does the All-Teeth-On-Four procedure take?
The timeline varies based on individual needs, but many patients receive temporary teeth the same day as implant placement. Final teeth are typically fitted after 3-6 months, once the implants have fully integrated with the bone. During your consultation, we’ll provide a detailed timeline tailored to your treatment plan.
