The confidence to smile again
At one80 Dental we can give you back your smile. We have over 20 years’ experience of finding and providing solutions for patients with missing or no teeth.  When you have lost all your teeth in either the upper or lower jaw the options to replace them are generally limited to a traditional removable denture or implant-supported solutions either dentures or bridgework, which can be fixed or removable.

For patients looking to rid themselves of ill-fitting or uncomfortable traditional dentures then we offer the All-on-4 technique, this approach provides a ‘fixed’ solution, using only 4 implants in each jaw and replacing your teeth with bridgework.

All-on-4
We have been using the All-On-4 Technique for more than 15 years and have helped many patients in that time, we consider All-on-4 to be one of the best approaches to replacing all your teeth.  It can be a suitable solution for people who have worn dentures for a long time, people with only a few wobbly or broken teeth left or people wishing to avoid the ‘false teeth’ look altogether.

The All-on-4 technique uses four dental implants to support a fixed bridge replacing a full arch of upper or lower teeth (or both).
