“We determined that a more predictable and comprehensive approach—removing the failing teeth and placing implants—would offer the best outcome for him.”
The All-on-4 Plus® procedure offers a fixed option for people looking to restore their smile when several teeth are not functioning well. It’s not a one-size-fits-all treatment, so every patient is carefully assessed to ensure the approach is right for their individual needs. Dr. Fibishenko notes that planning takes into account a person’s goals, lifestyle, and oral health, so the outcome can be tailored to support both function and comfort.
According to Dr. Fibishenko, this option allowed Chris to regain both function and confidence while avoiding prolonged, staged repairs. “It was a chance to start fresh and give him something that would perform reliably.”
Following treatment, improvements were noted in both function and comfort. Chris was able to eat a broader range of foods again and described a positive shift in his overall sense of wellbeing and confidence.
Activities such as socialising, exercising, and engaging in professional commitments became more comfortable without the distraction of ongoing dental issues.
One of Chris’s most memorable moments after treatment was finally doing something he’d long dreamed of—biting down on a medal after finishing a triathlon. “It sounds small,” he laughs, “but it was symbolic for me—being able to do that confidently felt great.”
Chris sums up his experience simply: “I didn’t realise how much dental issues were holding me back until they weren’t. It’s changed how I feel day to day—at work, socially, and just within myself.”
For Chris, the comprehensive approach provided a functional and aesthetic result that supported his active lifestyle and professional commitments. He expressed that he had not realised the extent to which his dental concerns had been affecting him until they were resolved through treatment.
