For
our patients who have lost multiple teeth to disease or trauma and don’t want
to wear removable dentures, dental implants are the best choice. Dental
implants offer a freedom to patients that cannot be found in other tooth
replacement options, but not all implants are the same.
When
replacing an entire arch, we can use traditional dental implants or the newer
All-On-4 technology. Both will give you a brand new smile, but the similarities
end there.
The
technological advancement found in All-On-4 now allows patients to receive a
completely new arch implanted on 4 posts rather than the 6 to 8 required for
traditional implants. Not only does All-On-4 require less posts, these posts
are inserted diagonally rather than vertically. This means that even if you
have had significant bone loss, you can still be a candidate for All-On-4
without adding a complicated and invasive bone grafting procedure.
Because
of it’s revolutionary implant style, All-On-4 is a much quicker procedure and
can be accomplished in as little as one office visit rather than the multiple
appointments required for traditional implants. You’ll even recover faster too!
So
how do you know if you’re a candidate for All-On-4?
·
You
have lost several or all of your teeth on one arch or will need to have
multiple extractions to remove damaged teeth.
·
You
have been told you don’t have sufficient bone to support a traditional implant.
·
You
are interested in a quicker procedure that has a shorter recovery time.
·
You
currently wear dentures and find them uncomfortable and inconvenient.
