4 On 8 Dental Implants
The 4 On 8 Dental Treatment is a new revolutionary permanent dental restoration treatment designed by Dr. Moguel.
By permanently placing 4, solid zirconia bridges, we were able to divide your teeth into independent sections, each supported by two titanium dental implant posts that are screwed into your jawbone.
This treatment’s unique design allows for a faster restoration should any bridge become damaged, especially when teeth grinding is present.
Thanks to the design of this new dental treatment, each bridge now can perform the same shewing functionality as our natural teeth do, and if one bridge underperforms, it does not compromise any of the other bridges.
These are not snap-on or dentures, these are permanent zirconia bridges.

What is the 4 On 8 Dental Treatment?
The 4 on 8 dental treatment aims to use eight dental implants which are inserted in your jawbone so these implants are used to anchor four separate bridges to the jaw, thus providing a stable prosthesis for completely edentulous patients.
The 4 On 8 Dental Treatment outperforms treatment such as the all on 4, all on 6, all on 8 dental implant treatments by a large margin.
These underperforming dental treatments utilize a single 14-tooth-based bridge connected to either 4, 6, or 8 titanium implant posts.
The main factor that makes these treatments inferior to our 4 on 8 is primarily due to the uniform chewing force applied to the entire bridge. Therefore, making your front teeth receive the same chewing pressure as your molars do when you chew food.
Benefits of the4 On 8 Treatment
The 4 on 8 concept uses eight dental implants to support four separate bridges so that the patient’s mouth is divided into four segments, each segment can work independently so that the patient can maintain proper masticatory functions like natural teeth.
More natural design than other treatment options
Using the 4 on 8 concept allows equal distribution of the mastication force over the four separate bridges during chewing, while other options like all-on-4, and all-on-6 use a single overdenture which could result in uneven force distribution

Durability
The 4 on 8 approach offers durable fixed bridges that could stay with the patient for so long as the biting forces are distributed over four separate bridges supported by eight dental implants so that no excessive forces could be exerted on the bone that might lead to bone resorption
Good option for your jawbone
The 4 on 8 concept allows less bone resorption as all stresses are exerted equally over the eight dental implants which can help the jawbone maintain good quality and density
Maximum safety
Using eight dental implants makes it possible to maintain proper function if an implant fails so other implants can provide enough stability for the restoration while losing one implant in other treatment options like all-on-4, all-on-6, and all-on-8 can compromise the whole procedure
Quick restoration
This concept uses 4 separate bridges. So, these bridges can work independently if one bridge fails, thus providing a quick restoration for this bridge, while other bridges can remain in function, which can help all patients maintain proper function and esthetics.
Is the 4 on 8 treatment suitable for you?
The 4 on 8 concept could be the best solution for patients having these specific criteria:
Patients with mild or no systemic diseases
Systemic diseases are one of the main concerns which could impact the dental implant procedure as patients with systemic diseases might have delayed wound healing or altered immune functions. So, patients seeking the 4 on 8 concept should have a stable health condition
Patients with adequate bone quality and density
The 4 on 8 concept could be the best solution for patients with adequate bone quality and density as the implant dentist inserts about eight dental implants to form an osseointegrated interface between implants and the surrounding bone to achieve high success rates
Nonsmokers
Heavy smokers could be contraindicated for the 4 on 8 processes as smoking could lead to poor oral hygiene and delayed healing so patients seeking the 4 on 8 processes should stay away from smoking
Good oral hygiene
The 4 on 8 process requires good oral hygiene as the implant dentists insert about eight dental implants so bacteria could spread to the body of dental implants leading to their failure due to peri-implantitis and peri-implant mucositis
No ongoing periodontal (gum) diseases
Periodontal diseases could lead to the destruction of the jawbone which has a direct impact on the osteointegration (close bond formed between the implant and surrounding bone). The 4 on 8 approach requires sufficient bone to be successful. The presence or absence of periodontal diseases could be determined by proper clinical examination during the first visit
No excessive parafunctional habits
Patients having parafunctional habits such as bruxism (patients having bruxism grind their teeth regularly) could be contraindicated for the 4 on 8 approach as these habits could increase the forces exerted on the dental implants leading to the procedure failure. Patients with parafunctional habits should be treated first before doing the 4 on 8 procedure

Why Choose us for the 4 On 8 Treatment?
Safety
We always keep in consideration every single detail about the patient’s clinical situation especially if the patient suffers from a certain disease. We also try to avoid any complications that might occur during the dental implant surgery
A proper medical history is taken
A detailed medical history is taken on the first appointment including blood pressure and blood glucose levels measurements. All vital signs are monitored. All investigations that should be considered for the dental implant treatment are done by our specialists
Preoperative radiographic assessments
Preoperative radiographs are very important to evaluate the quality, density, and health of bone so the implant dentist could determine whether the patient is indicated for dental implant treatment or not. We also use recent technologies such as CT scans that enable our specialists to provide excellent work
Stress reduction protocol
Many elderly patients seeking the 4 on 8 approaches have systemic diseases that require special considerations before the surgery. For example, many patients suffer from cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension or angina pectoris. Stress which is related to dental visits can elevate levels of catecholamines, thus developing anginal attacks or raising the blood pressure.
We always keep the patient’s health condition in consideration so we can schedule early short appointments for these patients with proper sedation at the night before the surgery and profound anesthesia to reduce stress.

Implant Failure
There is a risk that 4 On 8 dental implants can fail. This happens in about 1 percent of patients. It occurs when the implants do not fuse with the bone, primarily due to patients not waiting the required healing time, poor hygiene, or drinking alcohol. Most of the time, this can be resolved with a new implant.
Reducing this risk is hard to do since the dentist, and researchers don’t always know why one implant fails, and others do not. However, if the patient follows all care instructions before and after the dental implants procedure, it’s less likely to occur. This means maintaining good oral hygiene, eating soft foods, and avoiding smoking.
The Risk of Infection
Any type of surgery carries a risk of infection. Good dentists do everything necessary to minimize this risk. However, infections do occur for various reasons. One of the most common results is the existence of peri-implantitis, a type of infection.
Knowing the signs, like the following, is a good way to get the help you need:
- The dental implants are loose or wobbly
- Bad breath
- A bad taste in the mouth
- Gums that are puffy, red, and inflamed around the dental implants
- Pus exists in the gums
- Fever
- Excessive bleeding while brushing
