How Do All-on-4 Dental Implants Work?
Dental implants are the world’s only permanent tooth replacement option. These durable titanium or zirconia posts are surgically inserted into the jawbone, simulating the roots of a tooth. This means that they not only stay in place for a lifetime, but they also help prevent further tooth and bone loss by providing essential stimulation.
With All-on-4, you can anchor a full denture in place with maximum support using the minimum number of dental implants in Port Orange. Four strategically placed dental implants will be surgically inserted in the thickest and most stable part of the jawbone. The two posterior implants will be attached to the back part of the mouth at 45-degree angles, reducing the need for a bone graft to strengthen the jaw. Then, abutments are attached to the implants and used to secure a denture in place, resulting in a comfortable reliable smile that will never slip or squeak when you eat, speak, smile, or laugh.
Am I a Candidate for All-on-4 Dental Implants?
Most patients who have lost all their teeth on one or both arches are good candidates for All-on-4. In fact, even patients who have suffered bone loss may still be eligible due to the unique angled placement which requires less jawbone density to adhere to. Patients who may have required bone grafting before qualifying for traditional implant dentures may not need this procedure for All-on-4.
You will still need to be in good oral health, and willing and committed to practicing excellent oral hygiene and breaking any bad oral habits like smoking or tobacco use, as these can increase your risk of dental implant failure.
Benefits of All-on-4 Dental Implants
There are many amazing benefits to restoring your smile with All-on-4 dental implants.
- Because your All-on-4 dentures are permanently fixed in the jaw, they won’t need to be removed for cleaning and soaking like traditional dentures and can be brushed and flossed just like real teeth.
- They look and feel just like your original teeth.
- Dental implants provide a greater biteforce than traditional dentures and dental bridges, allowing you to eat more of your favorite foods.
- Dental implants prevent bone loss, keeping you looking younger and more vibrant for years to come!
All-on-4 Vs. Traditional Implant Dentures
Although they both rely on durable dental implants to support a lifelike prosthetic, All-on-4 dental implants differ a bit from traditional implant dentures. Here are a few key distinctions:
- Traditional implant dentures can often take up to eight posts, making All-on-4 a more cost-effective option. This also means they require less surgery.
- In many cases, getting All-on-4 doesn’t require any invasive procedures like bone grafting, nor do you need to wait for several months for the graft to work before getting your denture.
- With All-on-4, your denture can often be placed on the very same day as your dental implant surgery, allowing you to enjoy your new smile right away.
