We are Australia’s only Sydney-based All-on-4® Centre of Excellence, a designation that represents not only technical competency, but a commitment to the highest international standards in full-arch rehabilitation.
But here’s the revolutionary aspect: through our mobile photogrammetry service, these Malo Clinic standards are no longer confined to major metropolitan centres or high-volume specialist practices. Whether you’re in rural Queensland, regional Western Australia, or anywhere across the Bass Strait, your patients can access the same precision, expertise, and outcomes that define world-class All-on-4® care.
This is about more than geographic equality. It’s about ensuring that every Australian patient, regardless of postcode, has access to life-changing dental care delivered to the highest international standards.
The Malo Clinic Connection: Authentic Expertise and Proven Protocols
Professor Paulo Malo didn’t just develop a surgical technique; he created a comprehensive philosophy of implant rehabilitation that has transformed millions of lives worldwide. The All-on-4® treatment concept, backed by over 25 years of clinical research and refinement, represents one of the most significant innovations in dentistry.
The Malo Philosophy:
Immediate Function: Patients leave with fixed teeth on the day of surgery, restoring confidence and quality of life without the trauma of extended edentulous periods.
Predictable Outcomes: Standardised protocols and precise execution deliver consistent success rates exceeding 98% across diverse patient populations and clinical scenarios.
Minimally Invasive: Strategic implant placement often eliminates the need for bone grafting, making treatment accessible to patients previously excluded from implant therapy.
Biological Respect: Careful attention to tissue management and healing optimisation ensures long-term stability and health.
Rob Dulieu’s Authentic Training Experience:
Rob’s training at the Malo Clinic wasn’t a brief workshop or certificate course. It was a comprehensive mini-residency that provided deep insight into the philosophy, techniques, and quality standards that have made the All-on-4® concept globally successful.
Key Training Components:
Clinical Observation: Direct observation of Professor Malo and senior clinicians performing complex All-on-4® procedures, witnessing decision-making processes and technique refinements.
Laboratory Integration: Understanding the critical relationship between surgical precision and laboratory excellence, including impression techniques, design protocols, and material selection.
Patient Management: Comprehensive protocols for patient selection, treatment planning, and long-term care management.
Quality Assurance: Rigorous standards for outcome measurement, complication management, and continuous improvement.
Centre of Excellence Certification:
RWD’s designation as Australia’s only Sydney-based All-on-4® Centre of Excellence reflects our proven commitment to maintaining Malo Clinic standards in everything we do. This certification, awarded by Nobel Biocare based on clinical outcomes, patient satisfaction, and technical proficiency, ensures that our protocols meet the highest international benchmarks.
The certification process requires:
- Demonstrated clinical competency and outcome tracking
- Adherence to standardised protocols and quality measures
- Continuous education and protocol updates
- Patient satisfaction monitoring and improvement
- Long-term outcome tracking and reporting
This isn’t just a marketing designation; it’s a commitment to excellence that guides every aspect of our mobile ICAM service delivery.
Breaking Geographic Barriers: Technology Democratisation Across Australia
Australia’s vast geography has traditionally created significant disparities in healthcare access, with advanced dental technologies concentrated in major metropolitan centres while regional and rural communities face limited options. The mobile ICAM service model fundamentally disrupts this geographic inequality.
The Geographic Challenge:
Urban Concentration: Advanced dental technologies, specialist expertise, and complex treatment capabilities historically cluster in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and Perth, leaving vast areas underserved.
Travel Burden: Patients requiring complex dental care often face significant travel distances, accommodation costs, and time away from work and family.
Practice Limitations: Regional practitioners, despite possessing excellent clinical skills, often lack access to the latest technologies and specialised support required for complex cases.
Economic Impact: The economic burden of travel for dental care creates additional barriers for patients already facing significant treatment costs.
Mobile Service Revolution:
Rob’s vision transcends these traditional limitations: “We can fly to regional New South Wales or anywhere in Australia or New Zealand to offer the service.” This isn’t marketing hyperbole; it’s operational reality backed by comprehensive logistics and unwavering commitment to access equality.

Regional Practice Transformation: Success Stories Across Australia
The impact of bringing Malo Clinic standards to regional Australia extends far beyond individual cases. Entire communities benefit when local practices can offer world-class care without requiring patients to travel to distant metropolitan centres.
Case Study: Toowoomba Specialist Practice
Dr. Michael Thompson’s oral surgery practice in Toowoomba faced a common challenge: possessing excellent surgical skills and strong community relationships, yet lacking access to the advanced impression technology required for optimal All-on-4 outcomes.
“We were referring complex cases to Brisbane because we couldn’t guarantee the precision our patients deserved,” Dr. Thompson explains. “The mobile ICAM service changed everything. Suddenly, we could offer the same accuracy and same-day provisional capabilities as the major city practices.”
Transformation Results:
- Case Volume: Increased from 3-4 monthly referrals to 8-10 local treatments
- Patient Satisfaction: 98% satisfaction rate with immediate function outcomes
- Community Impact: $2.4 million in dental care is retained locally rather than referred
- Professional Development: Enhanced skills through collaboration with RWD experts
- Practice Growth: 45% increase in overall practice revenue within 18 months
Patient Impact Story:
Margaret, a 67-year-old retired teacher from Toowoomba, had been struggling with failing teeth for years. Traditional treatment would have required multiple trips to Brisbane, creating significant financial and logistical challenges for her and her family.
“I never imagined I could get this level of care right here in Toowoomba,” Margaret reflects. “The mobile service meant I could have my surgery and walk out with beautiful teeth the same day, all while staying close to my family and support system.”
Case Study: Geraldton Regional Hub
Dr. Sarah Mitchell’s practice in Geraldton serves a vast catchment area across regional Western Australia. Patients traditionally travelled over 400 kilometres to Perth for advanced implant care, creating significant barriers to treatment access.
Implementation Process:
- Initial consultation and workflow integration planning
- Staff training on ICAM protocols and patient coordination
- First case collaboration with RWD mobile technician
- Ongoing partnership development and case volume growth
18-Month Outcomes:
- Geographic Impact: Serving patients across 200,000 square kilometres without travel requirements
- Clinical Excellence: 100% passive fit success rate on all restorations
- Economic Benefit: $1.8 million in healthcare dollars retained in the regional economy
- Professional Recognition: Dr. Mitchell was invited to present the regional care model at the Australian Dental Association conference
Patient Success Story:
James, a 45-year-old mining supervisor, had postponed dental treatment for years due to work commitments and the difficulty of arranging travel to Perth. Failing teeth were affecting his professional confidence and family relationships.
“The mobile service meant I could finally get the treatment I needed without taking weeks off work or putting my family through the stress of big city travel,” James explains. “Walking out with perfect teeth the same day was life-changing.”
