The All-on-4 procedure (AO4) has been successfully performed in Europe for over 15 years and here in the U.S. for about 4 years. Approximately 10 years ago the world’s leading dental implant manufacturer, Nobel Biocare, joined implant specialists and researchers in Europe to study computer simulation and bio-mechanics to create the optimal use of implants for the edentulous patient (most or all of their natural teeth missing). Our clinicians have traveled to Europe and studied with the developers of the AO4 procedure which enjoys a success rate of over 97% worldwide.
