Dental Today Highlights Full-Arch Dental Implant Solutions In Auckland

Dental Today, based in Onehunga, Auckland, is drawing attention to developments in full-arch dental implant treatment, including the All on 4 in Auckland technique, as a long-term solution for patients with missing or severely damaged teeth.

The All-on-4 method involves supporting a complete set of upper or lower teeth on just four dental implants. This approach differs from traditional full-mouth implant cases, which may require six to eight implants and multiple surgical procedures. By using four strategically placed implants, the All-on-4 technique can reduce the need for bone grafting and streamline the process for eligible patients. According to Dental Today, this method offers a permanent, fixed alternative to removable dentures and may be suitable for individuals who are missing most or all teeth in an arch, are considering full dentures, or prefer a non-removable solution.

Dental Today’s clinical workflow for All-on-4 includes a 3D scan, digital treatment planning, and implant placement under local anaesthetic, with sedation options available. Patients typically receive a temporary bridge after implant placement, with the final restoration fitted once healing and integration are complete. The cost for a single All-on-4 arch at the Auckland clinic generally ranges between $27,000 and $29,900, depending on case complexity and materials, with written quotes and finance options available.

In addition to All-on-4, Dental Today provides a range of dental implants services, from single-tooth replacements to full-arch restorations using titanium implants. These implants are placed in the jawbone and can support individual crowns, fixed bridges, or dentures. The treatment process is staged to ensure proper healing and integration, with suitability determined by clinical assessment and imaging.

Dental Today operates from 66 Church Street, Onehunga, and provides implant dentistry alongside general and family dental services.
