Abstract
The so called "all-on-four" technique is an alternative method for immediate rehabilitation of completely edentulous mandible thanks to implant-supported dental prostheses. Reduced chairside time, costs and discomfort for patients are just some of the advantages, together with a high survival rate, as confirmed by the international literature. The present work shows the encouraging preliminary results of this method, pointing out what are the advantages for clinicians and patients.
