All-on-four dental implants are a type of implant-supported denture procedure that replaces an entire arch of teeth at once. The all-on-four technique uses four angled implants per jaw, which support a fixed, non-removable bridge or set of dentures. Implant-supported bridges differ from traditional removable partial dentures in that they are more stable and secure and do not need the use of adhesives. Additionally, the all-on-four treatment method often yields faster results compared to traditional procedures that require multiple surgeries to affix the bridge to the mouth with screws.
All-on-4 implants are placed within the jawbone using four dental implants per arch, which are attached to either a fixed or removable denture appliance. This system is sometimes referred to as teeth-in-a-day because it can usually be completed all in one day, and patients leave the office with their new smile in place!
The process for placing all-on-4 implants begins when the gum line is gently pulled back to expose the jaw bone. Then, the dental implants are placed at precise angles to maximize stability and durability. Once they are all in position, the abutments can be attached, and the dentures are secured to the abutments for a permanent fit. Patients enjoy an immediately improved quality of life after this treatment because they are able to eat and speak normally again.
All-on-4 dental implants are a treatment method that involves placing four posts into the mouth where teeth are missing instead of using two or six posts. The posts are surgically implanted, and the denture is snapped onto the titanium bases. The benefit of this procedure is that the treatment is more cost-effective than using traditional implant-supported dentures, and there are fewer complications. Patients generally experience better overall results due to the increased stability of the procedure. If you're missing all of your teeth, then you may be an excellent candidate for all-on-4 dental implants. Contact us today to schedule your consultation!
The all-on-four treatment concept involves implanting four precisely angled titanium dental implants into the jaw to support a fixed bridge of replacement teeth. Because of the unique placement of the implants, the all-on-four procedure is often less expensive than traditional dental implant procedures involving bone grafting and lengthy healing periods. Additionally, the patient can typically leave our office with a new set of fixed replacement teeth in just one day.
