Choosing the right full-mouth dental implant treatment option can be daunting, especially when comparing modern techniques like all-on-4 dental implants and the advanced CorticoBasal® implant systems. Let us understand their unique strengths and key points so that you can make an informed decision.

1.Structural Differences in Design and Application

• All-on-4 dental implants involve placing four implants per jaw, typically tilted in the posterior to avoid the sinus cavity or nerve canal. It requires sufficient bone density in specific locations and may necessitate bone grafting in compromised cases.
• In contrast, CorticoBasal® implants utilize the denser, more stable cortical bone and can be placed in patients with severe bone loss, without any grafting or sinus lift procedures.

2.Surgical Technique and Healing Time

• All-on-4 usually follows a staged healing protocol where temporary prostheses are placed first, followed by a final bridge months later.
• CorticoBasal® implants support immediate loading – allowing the placement of a fixed implant bridge within 48 to 72 hours. This implantology eliminates longer healing time & allows quicker functional recovery.

3.Patient Suitability

• All-on-4 may not be ideal for patients with highly resorbed jaws, systemic health issues, or those unwilling to undergo bone augmentation.
• CorticoBasal® technology, however, caters especially to such patients, including the elderly, diabetics, and those with minimal residual bone.

4.Long-Term Outcomes and Maintenance

• All-on-4 prostheses rely on a few implants, which might lead to complications if even one implant fails, potentially compromising the entire bridge.
• With CorticoBasal® systems, 10–12 implants are typically distributed in the upper jaw and 8 in the lower, offering better load distribution and structural reliability. The subperiosteal fixation mimics orthopedic principles, enhancing long-term stability.

Understanding Full-Mouth Dental Implant Cost

While the Full-Mouth Dental Implant Cost may vary between systems, CorticoBasal® implants generally eliminate the need for grafting, surgical guides, and multiple visits – making the procedure more cost-effective in the long run despite the greater number of implants.
