Overview
A comprehensive clinical assessment forms part of the All-On-4 Plus® treatment process. Before treatment begins, your clinician gathers information to assess your oral health, general health and individual treatment requirements.
The assessment may include a review of your medical and dental history, a clinical examination and diagnostic imaging. These findings help your clinician evaluate factors relevant to treatment planning before implant surgery is considered.
Your clinician will also consider your systemic health, smoking status and other individual clinical considerations as part of the assessment. Every patient is assessed individually because suitability for treatment depends on a comprehensive clinical evaluation rather than a single factor.
The information gathered during your assessment is used to develop your individual treatment plan. Once your assessment is complete, your clinician will discuss the recommended approach, explain any identified clinical considerations and outline the next steps based on your individual circumstances.
