Immediate Function Implant Systems

There are several brands of immediate function implant systems. The top 2 implant systems world-wide are:

  1. ProArch from Straumann
  2. All-on-4 from Nobel Biocare

For immediate function systems, your implantologist will likely recommend having active surface and a good quality dental implant system range in order to increase the survival and success rates. 

For Nobel Biocare, NobelActive implants is the preferred implant system of choice. NobelSpeedy (Malo patent) or NobelReplace (standard implants) do not contain the special active surface coating that allows for faster osseointegration properties that helps to improve implant integration.

For Struamann, the available ranges of active surfac implant include SLActive, Roxolid SLActive and the BLX implant system. The Straumann BLX system is the latest implant that is designed specifically for immediate function with special surface, shape and small size.

Recovery Expectations

Following placement of the dental implant posts, you may feel sore or tenderness in surrounding gums and implant site. As it is a full jaw surgery, the areas may also be swollen. Please are recommended to rest and consume liquids for the first few days.

Dental Implant Reviews from BIDC Patients

Hi, My name is Stephen Cunningham. I’m here in Los Angeles California and I came to Bangkok International Dental Center to get All on 5 dental implants on the top and on the bottom, the reason I picked BIDC is that in doing my research I basically was searching for the highest quality work available especially for my money and I’m talking about I search worldwide and this is where I landed BIDC so I’m very excited to have got my treatment done here. I feel absolutely great.

I came in for an All-on-6 and a whole branch of crowns for the upper part. Even within the covd period, for foreign visitors anywhere, do not hesitate to come here. They are absolutely the most professional people I never met. 
The quality of workmanship is second to none. And the facilities is state-of-the-art. I have had the great pleasure of meeting the great doctors and nurses here. Thank all of the staff for wonderful experience.

Care for Immediate Function Implants

Dental implants require the same care as real teeth, including brushing, flossing, and regular dental check-ups:

  • Brush after eating and before bedtime around the implant with a soft toothbrush
  • Floss at least once to twice a day. Use the proxy brush or floss threader to remove plaque under and around these areas to maintain good oral hygiene. Buildup of food debris and plaque on your teeth and gums can become infected.
  • Rinse with fluoride rinse before bed. Swish the fluoride rinse vigorously in your mouth for at least one minute. Do not swallow any of the rinse and do not eat or drink anything for 30 minutes
  • Be careful about chewing toffees, gum, grainy rolls and tough food in this area
  • See your dentist for regular professional check-ups and cleanings

Conclusion – All-on-4 Dental Implants

All-on-4 implants is the name of immediate function system by Nobel Biocare whereby a fixed hybrid denture is secured onto 4 dental implant posts. 2 of the outer posterior implants is titled in order to anchor to anterior bone that tends to be more dense. If 5 implants is used, it is called All-on-5. If 6 implants is opted, it is known as All-on-6. If you use Straumann implants, their immediate function concept is known as ProArch.

There are several benefits to this full jaw immediate function replacement solutions in terms of speed of treatment. It also enables a smoother transition for individuals who are soon-to-be edentulous. The All-on-4 concept does however carry higher risks and special care will be required over-time. Unlike implant-supported dentures that are removable, All-on-4 hybrid bridge are fixed and will need to be professionally removed for cleaning and maintenance. Like any prostheses, it may need adjustments or replacement over the long-term.
