If you have lost multiple teeth, our skilled dentists may recommend replacing them with All-on-4® implants. This implant-supported solution can help you regain your oral health and smile, combining dentures with four strategically placed implants to offer you a highly stable and long-lasting solution for your teeth.
What Are All-on-4 Implants?
All-on-4 implants are an innovative and highly effective dental implant solution designed to restore a full arch of missing teeth in either the upper or lower jaw. This revolutionary dental procedure offers a permanent and natural-looking alternative to traditional dentures.
The All-on-4 technique involves the placement of four dental implants strategically in the jawbone to provide a stable foundation for a set of fixed dentures. These implants are typically made of titanium, a biocompatible material that fuses with the bone over time through a process called osseointegration. Once this fusion is complete, the implants become a robust support system for the prosthetic teeth.
Benefits of All-on-4 Implant-Supported Dentures
- Improved Stability: All-on-4 implants provide a secure and stable fit, eliminating the risk of dentures slipping or falling out while speaking or eating.
- Enhanced Functionality: Patients can enjoy a restored ability to bite, chew and speak confidently, just like with their natural teeth.
- Preservation of Bone Density: The implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing bone loss and preserving facial structure.
- Minimal Surgery: The All-on-4 technique often requires less invasive surgery than traditional implant methods, reducing discomfort and healing time.
- Quick Transformation: Many patients can receive their new teeth in a single day, offering a swift and convenient solution to tooth loss.
- Natural Aesthetics: The prosthetic teeth are custom-made to look and feel like natural teeth, providing a beautiful and seamless smile.
The All-on-4 Process
- Consultation: The journey begins with a thorough examination and consultation with our dental professionals. We will assess your oral health, discuss your goals and determine if you are a suitable candidate for All-on-4 implants.
- Implant Placement: During the procedure, our dentists will strategically position four implants in the jawbone at specific angles to maximize stability and support for the dentures.
- Temporary Restoration: In many cases, a temporary set of teeth is attached to the implants on the same day of the procedure, allowing you to leave the dental office with functional teeth while your final set is being custom-made.
- Final Restoration: Once the implants have fully integrated with the bone, typically over a few months, the permanent dentures are fabricated and securely attached, providing a long-lasting, comfortable and natural-looking solution for missing teeth.
