4 | DENTAL BOUTIQUE MELBOURNE WHAT IS All-On-4?

All-On-4® Technology is one of today’s most revolutionary and cost-effective dental techniques. The treatment brings a realistic full replacement of teeth and gums for people with failing teeth.

The term All-On-4® refers to “all” teeth being supported on just “four” implants. With All-On-4® technology, you can expect a restored and fully functioning set of teeth. With that comes restored facial height for a fuller face, correct bite and jaw position, improved speech and an overall restoration of the best you! All-On-4® involves the placement of a full set of fixed teeth on only four dental implants. It’s truly a procedure that can not only change your smile, but your life.

Traditionally, dentures were the only solution for total teeth replacement. Fortunately with the new All-On-4® technology, you will see your smile function restored and aesthetics enhanced with minimal time in the dentist chair. All-On-4® also decreases the need for bone grafts, making it easier to place the implants. This procedure is perfect for people who have lost a great deal of teeth, have gum disease, have experienced bone loss already or would like a more permanent solution to wearing dentures.

8 | DENTAL BOUTIQUE MELBOURNE Questions ANSWERED 1 Am I a suitable candidate for All-On-4®? You may be a suitable candidate if you have natural teeth that are failing from decay and infection, have advanced gum disease and loose teeth, have multiple missing teeth loss, are suffering from ill-fitting dentures and do not want to wear removable dentures. A bone volume evaluation must be done prior to the procedure to ensure sufficient bone for implant placement.

2 What other option do I have besides All-On-4®? If your teeth are salvageable, we would recommend to maintain your teeth. In cases where your teeth are not able to be saved, other options besides All-On-4® would be a denture and an implant retained denture. Both these options are removable.

3 Can I be asleep during the treatment? The procedure itself will not be painful as we manage all your treatment under Local or General Anaesthesia. Under Local Anaesthesia, you may feel some pressure and pushing, however it should not be be painful at all. Our dental surgeons and assistants are very experienced and gentle, and we check in with you regularly to ensure your procedure is as pain-free and comfortable as possible. If you choose to complete the All-On-4® treatment under General Anaesthesia, we have an experienced in house anaesthetic team that will be present throughout your entire procedure to ensure safety and comfort. General Anaesthesia is the only way to be 100% certain that the procedure will be pain and pressure free. Most All-On-4® cases are completed under General Anaesthetic where you are completely asleep. Whatever your special needs or requests are, be sure to raise them at your consultation and we will plan your treatment accordingly.

4 How long will my treatment take? Your treatment will take between 2-3 days to complete. The 1st day would be surgery day (under GA or LA). The next day would be the try in of your new smile and any adjustments to your smile will be made on this 2nd day. On the 3rd and final day, your final set of teeth will be completed. This timeline can vary from person to person depending on the severity of infection.

9 | DENTAL BOUTIQUE MELBOURNE Questions ANSWERED 5 Is there any downtime or recovery time required? We generally recommend that you take up to 5-7 days for recovery. Swelling (and sometimes bruising) generally peaks on the 3rd day starts to subside on the 4th day onwards. The healing time varies from patient to patient depending on their overall health and severity of infection.

6 How much does All-On-4® cost? The price of All-On-4® depends on your pre-existing condition, suitability, number of teeth remaining, your bone condition, and the material of choice for your All-On-4® prosthesis. A personalised treatment plan and accurate quote can be given upon a consultation with our All-On-4® dentist, once we assess your pre-existing condition, discuss your smile goals and provide you with all the options for your treatment and material choices in your specific situation. While many of our patients are attracted by the option of payment plans, they are often also pleasantly surprised to find that treatment will cost less than expected. There is also an option for early release of superannuation fund if you are an eligible candidate.

12 | DENTAL BOUTIQUE MELBOURNE VIRTUALLY Pain - Free DENTISTRY SERVICES

FOR ALL YOUR PAIN AND ANXIETY FREE DENTAL SOLUTIONS

The majority of patients who visit Dental Boutique do so without pain or worry, however for some patients, visiting the dentist can be scary for a number of reasons, often preventing them from visiting the dentist for years. This means that problems worsen and patients are unable to achieve their dream smile.

People often fail to realise that their teeth and gums are connected with other parts of the body, and issues in the mouth can have a negative long term impact on their general health and wellbeing.

One bad experience at a dentist due to pain, being reprimanded or judged or not being listened to can be causes of anxiety. People can also get anxious as they feel that they lose control lying in the chair.

Luckily our boutique offers a number of sedation, relaxation and general well-being techniques, including sleep dentistry that have helped many of our patients overcome dental anxiety and fear. Every patient at our practice has the opportunity to embark on a calm journey to achieve their desired smile.

As part of the Dental Boutique Way, we offer a holistic approach to improving smiles, which means we encompass not just changing your smile, but the physical health and emotional well-being of every patient in our care. This helps support extraordinary smile outcomes for our patients.

Our team of highly trained and qualified dentists who have a special interest in treating anxious patients have transformed many formerly anxious patients to feeling at ease when visiting us. To help others overcome dental anxiety, Dental Boutique offers a full range of facilities and equipments specially designed for the most anxious patients...

14 | DENTAL BOUTIQUE MELBOURNE EMMES Story... Emmes visited Dental Boutique all the way from Auckland. After losing both her parents and sister, she suffers from depression and heartache. She always loved to laugh loudly and unapologetically. But when the difficulties of life weighed down on her, her teeth started deteriorating and she started losing that love for laughter. Emmes has been through a lot in life- loosing both of her parents, sister and struggling with her self-confidence.

Emmes had visited a lot of Dental clinics, however, felt that she was being judged for her situation. She wanted to find a dentist who would help her with her smile without judgement, rather than condemn her for it. Emmes anxiety made it extremely difficult to even visit us at Dental Boutique, but finally she found the courage to get her smile restored. We transformed her smile using our All-On-4 treatment, which she is truly happy with. Now, Emmes has new reasons to laugh and smile.

15 | DENTAL BOUTIQUE MELBOURNE DAVID'S Story...

David had a massive fear of the dentists to the extent where he would have panic attacks when driving past a dental clinic. Over 20 years passed without visiting the dentist, and David decided to look into All-On-4 total teeth replacement. After careful planning and discussion with our team, David travelled over 6 hours to Melbourne to have his new dental implants inserted at Dental Boutique within 3 days.

His teeth are now amazing, strong and healthy as they possibly could be! At Dental Boutique, it is our mission to empower people with dental anxiety to overcome their fears. David is no longer afraid of going to the dentist. The most beautiful gift we can give to others is a new smile that changes their life.

16 | DENTAL BOUTIQUE MELBOURNE BETI'S Story...

Beti is a home body. And it's not because she just loves the indoors; it's because she tries to hide her teeth. Beti would avoid dropping her daughter Olivia at school and eventually it escalated to the stage where she would not even leave the house.

Most of Beti's teeth were lost due to lack of care. This caused her to lose confidence in her smile and in herself. Beti came to Dental Boutique seeking a restored smile and a reason to believe in herself again. We completed both upper and lower All-On-4. Her reaction to them was just so beautiful.

For the first time in a long time Beti is leaving the house. She now picks up her daughter Olivia from school and has the ability to see all that the world has to offer beyond her home. We are so proud of how far Beti has come emotionally!
