The Latest on Dental Implant Procedures from a Malo AOR Expert

Online, February 7, 2013 (Newswire.com) - This past week, an oral surgeon and member of the Malo Advanced Oral Rehabilitation (AOR) team of specialists, Dr. Steven Moss, spoke on "Living Better on the Go" a popular radio show hosted by Laura Smith on WABC in New York. During this interview, Dr. Moss spoke about a dental implant technique called the "All-on-4TM", which is widely regarded to be a revolutionary procedure for the treatment of edentulism; not having a single natural tooth left. "New teeth in a single day, with a single surgery is what the All-on-4TM makes possible," says Dr. Steven Moss. Let's hear what else this esteemed and respected oral surgeon has to say about this revolutionary teeth replacement technique.

Laura Asks: "Why is the All-on-4TM technique considered a breakthrough, or revolutionary procedure?"

"Conventional or traditional techniques require more surgery, more implants, additional procedures, more time, they cost more, and the results are not as aesthetic or as nice looking," explains Dr. Moss.

"The All-on-4TM is considered to be revolutionary because patients can safely and predictably have all their remaining failing teeth and bridgework removed, and a new, custom-made beautiful set of fixed (non-removable) teeth placed in only one surgery.

Using only four strategically placed dental implants - as opposed to six, eight or even 10 implants as is the case with traditional techniques - this procedure can be completed all in one day and at a much lesser cost to the patient."

Laura Asks: "Who can benefit from this technique? Who's a candidate?"

"There are currently 38 million Americans living without any teeth in either or both jaws," states Dr. Moss. "Millions more are on the verge of losing their remaining teeth, typically as a result of gum disease and bone loss. These teeth have become damaged beyond repair after years and years of restoration, using new crowns and bridges each time. Now they are failing and their days are limited."

Dr. Moss continues: "Anybody who has ever been told they are facing the need for, or are stuck with dentures and anyone who has been told that they need bone grafting before they can replace all their teeth with implants is likely a candidate for the All-on-4TM. Because the technique almost never requires bone grafting, patients who were not considered candidates for traditional dental implant techniques are now candidates! This is typically irrespective of age and jawbone health!"

Laura Asks: "What's the success rate of the All-on-4TM? And why should patients choose Malo AOR?"

"Recent long term studies from MALO CLINIC - the pioneers of the All-on-4TM - along with others, shows five and 10 year success rates to lie at the high end of 90%. This is a number that rivals or exceeds the success rate of implants used along with older more, conventional techniques, such as bone grafting," explains Dr. Moss.

"Why should patients choose Malo AOR? Our specialists have all been personally trained in Europe by Dr. Paulo Malo who is the inventor of the All-on-4TM," says Dr. Moss. "Over the years, we've mastered techniques and protocols painstakingly developed by the MALO CLINICS and we now can boast similar success. In fact, our team of specialists, alongside Dr. Malo himself, helps to train other dental professionals from all over North America at the courses we offer at our facility in Rutherford."

Dr. Moss finishes: "We always welcome the opportunity to work with a listener's existing dentist in the care and treatment of their patients utilizing the All-on-4TM. Listeners, be sure to ask how when you call Malo AOR or visit our website for more information!"
