What All-on-4 Dental Implants Involves
All-on-4 dental implants replace a full arch of missing or failing teeth with four implant fixtures supporting a fixed prosthetic bridge. The two posterior implants are angled at 30–45 degrees to engage greater bone volume and avoid sinus cavities in the maxilla, typically eliminating the need for bone grafting in patients with moderate bone loss. Nobel Biocare introduced the All-on-4 concept; Straumann's BLX and Roxolid systems are also used for the same indication.
The critical clinical gate for All-on-4 immediate loading is insertion torque, minimum 35Ncm and ISQ ≥60 at all four fixtures. Where these thresholds are not met, delayed loading is used and a second surgical stage is required.
You should request the implant brand and model in writing before committing to treatment, at a Calgary clinic or at Stunning Dentistry. The implant system specification (Straumann SLA/SLActive, Nobel Biocare Active, or equivalent) should be stated in the written treatment plan before any deposit is paid.
At Stunning Dentistry, all-on-4 dental implants cases are planned using CBCT-guided imaging and fabricated surgical guides for all implant placements. The treating oral surgeon and prosthodontist review the plan before any irreversible procedure begins. The implant brand and model are confirmed in the written treatment plan provided before the patient books travel.

After Treatment: Monitoring from Calgary
The Dental Angel clinical handover document provided at discharge contains the implant brand, model, and lot number; abutment specifications; graft materials if applicable; prosthetic design; and a complete monitoring schedule. Any general dentist in Calgary can perform the monitoring schedule from this document.
At month 4–6 post-surgery, the patient attends a Canada imaging centre for a CBCT. The DICOM files are sent to Stunning Dentistry for remote review. The return visit for final ceramic delivery is confirmed only after osseointegration is verified on the Canada-taken CBCT.

What if something goes wrong after I return to Calgary?
Post-return concerns are managed via remote video consultation with the Stunning Dentistry clinical team, at no additional charge for the first 12 months. The Dental Angel document allows any Calgary dentist to assess the concern locally first. If the concern requires clinical intervention, the SD team determines whether it can be managed by the Calgary dentist with SD guidance or requires a return visit.
