All-on-4 at Melton Dental House
The surgical team at Melton Dental House has substantial experience in All-on-4 treatment, having worked with this approach for over 10 years. The practice has an on-site theatre and a dedicated team of anaesthetists and nursing staff who support all implant procedures.
Treatment Under General Anaesthesia
All-on-4 surgery at Melton Dental House is performed under general anaesthesia. You will be asleep throughout the procedure. After you wake up, a long-acting local anaesthetic is provided to help manage discomfort during the initial recovery period. Your care team will give you clear instructions for the hours and days following surgery.
Temporary Teeth First
Following surgery, you will receive a set of temporary teeth. This stage allows your clinical team to assess the bite and ensure the aesthetics meet the required standard before your final teeth are made. Adjustments can be made during this period as needed.
Final Teeth Within 24 to 48 Hours
Once the temporary stage is confirmed, your final teeth are typically delivered within 24 to 48 hours. The strategic placement of the implants across the jaw means that, in appropriate cases, patients do not need to wait through an extended healing period before receiving their final teeth. Your clinician will advise whether this timeline applies to your individual situation.
What to Expect at Your Initial Consultation
Your first appointment is a consultation only. No treatment takes place at this stage. Your clinician will assess your teeth, jaw, and overall oral health, take X-rays and clinical photos, and discuss whether All-on-4 is a suitable option for you. Any questions you have about the process, timeline, or what is involved will be addressed at this appointment.
