The New All On 4

The evolution of metal-resin prostheses

We remove the metal in the prosthesis structure, thus avoiding corrosion that occurs over time and low biocompatibility. In addition, this way we reduce the final weight of the prosthesis, gaining safety and aesthetics. A fixed prosthesis made of peek composit, a new generation thermoplastic polymer that is biocompatible, lightweight and safe is used.

It is used in cases in which the doctor considers it necessary for reasons of vertical dimension or due to the absence of bone since it can be placed with only 4 implants.

Zirconia

Our most evolved material and our first choice

A fixed Monolithic Zirconia prosthesis is used. It is without doubt, our material of choice. Our clear commitment to R + D + I has been a constant in our trajectory. Our materials department has developed an evolved Monolithic Zirconia, made from fine particles that improve aesthetics and translucency, and understudy of finite elements to reinforce the areas of possible fracture avoiding problems in the future.

  • It is the most biocompatible material with the body, the one that most closely resembles natural teeth, giving us a high degree of resistance and excellent aesthetic result.

  • It is suitable for patients suffering from bruxism as it does not suffer wear or tear.

  • It is placed directly in the mouth since we do not use interfaces, therefore, it is completely metal-free.

Zygomatic Implants

Full mouth reconstruction for patients with severe bone density

Zygomatic implants are longer than conventional implants (approximately 45-55 mm) and are placed in the zygomatic bone slightly above the maxillary sinus.

With our digital implantology system, we carry out virtual planning before performing your treatment, achieving high precision and predictability of the case. With this technique we obtain a wide range of prosthetic solutions, offering functionality, comfort and naturalness to your permanent teeth.

Crooke & Laguna Dental Clinic is one of the first Zygoma ZAGA Centers to obtain certification in Spain, which makes us an expert consultation in the treatment of severe maxillary atrophy using zygomatic implants.

  • Solution without grafts.
  • Immediate function (fixed teeth in 1 day).
  • Definitive treatment in 3 months.
  • Less invasive than bone augmentation.
  • Greater predictability.

3StepSmiles ™

Through our digital work system we can offer the patient oral rehabilitation in only 3 phases.

DIGITAL PLANNING

The first phase of treatment is to study and plan the case digitally. To do this, we will take a series of specific photographs, a cbct, which is a 3D radiograph and an intraoral scanner using our scanning systems, which replace the annoying conventional impressions made with silicones, giving us maximum precision, comfort and security in printing. With all these digital records and with the help of specific software, we will plan the surgery and design the patient’s new smile.

SURGICAL PHASE

After the digital planning of the case by the Doctor, we move on to the surgical phase. This planning ensures high precision and predictability of the case since it allows us to simulate the placement of the implants in the desired position, avoiding bone defects and using all the bone that we have available, adapting to its anatomy. 

PROSTHETIC PHASE

“Bet on biocompatibility, safety and aesthetics in materials”

We have substituted Hybrid prostheses for Peek prostheses and new generation Metal-Porcelain prostheses with Monolithic Zirconium, with this we improve the biocompatibility of our prostheses, we avoid metal corrosion and porcelain peeling problems.

Surgery can be of 3 different types:

NAVIGATED SURGERY

The surgery is carried out guided by a coordinate system similar to that of a GPS, we navigate in real time and with a three-dimensional vision to the position previously planned for implant placement.

The surgery is carried out guided by a coordinate system similar to that of a GPS, we navigate in real time and with a three-dimensional vision to the position previously planned for implant placement.

Unlike guided surgery, in which you are limited to a surgical guide, here we are dealing with a “live” 3d surgery, which helps but does not limit, since the professional in any need can vary the course of the surgery and change it, if circumstances demand it, we are not limited to a surgical template. It is therefore a non-invasive, dynamic, adaptable, precise and predictable surgery that helps but does not limit, that allows us to have total control of the surgery and provides us with high precision and accuracy thanks to which we can use the maximum amount of bone available to work in patients with low bone density, avoiding complicated bone regeneration procedures.

It is a minimally invasive surgery, therefore, in most cases stitches are not necessary.

“We are pioneers in the use of navigated surgery”

 

GUIDED SURGERY

In this type of surgery, we use prior planning for the design and we make a surgical splint through which we guide the implants precisely to the desired position, achieving maximum precision in the final result.

It differs from navigated surgery in that a splint or guide must be made prior to performing the surgery.

As in navigated surgery, in most cases stitches are not necessary, the postoperative period is much more bearable for the patient.

This type of technique is used when the availability of the bone is reduced or when we need to place the implants in a certain position. This type of surgery is especially indicated in patients with coagulation problems, as it helps us to minimize the opening of the gum without the need for stitches.

“We have used this technique for more than 15 years”

 

CONVENTIONAL SURGERY

This type of surgery is used when due to different circumstances we need to modify the position of the gum or perform bone grafts. We use the CT to assess the patient’s bone availability and decide the technique or techniques to be carried out.

All this leads to the following advantages:

  1. We involve the patient from the first moment with the Digital Smile Design, after which we build a smile together with the patient. This methodology gives us a high predictability from the beginning to the end of the case.
  2. Thanks to Navigated surgery, which is a system similar to the GPS in cars, we achieve greater precision, reliability and efficiency. In 90% of our oral rehabilitation cases, we place fixed teeth 24 hours after surgery, achieving greater comfort and safety during the implant integration period.
  3. 90% of cases are finished with digital design in monolithic zirconia, achieving:
    • More Biocompatible
    • Greater resistance
    • Unbeatable aesthetic naturalness
