One of the top concerns people have about dental treatment is how long it will last.  When speaking of All-on-4, research shows that they are very long-lasting.  Because it is still a fairly new procedure, knowing exactly how long they last, is still questionable.  If you have questions about all-on-4, give us a call at #martindental.  We would love to answer any questions you have.

All on 4 implants are made up of two different parts: the dental implant that is placed inside the bone and the visible denture that connects to the implant.  So, when figuring out how long this procedure lasts, both the implant and the denture have to be taken into account.  Research shows that both these aspects of survival are great. Mesa AZ All on 4 Dental Implants

The longest studies for All-on-4 implants have been over a 10 year period.  Over these 10 years, studies have shown that all on 4 dental implants are comparable to or better than other implant systems.  At the 5 year mark, the implant success rate was 98% with around 95% of patients not experiencing a single dental implant failure. #smilewithconfidence  At the 10 year mark, implant survival rate was 95%, with 94% of patients experiencing not a single implant failure.

It is safe to say that the All-on-4 dental implant is 99% likely to last 10 years!
