No matter what causes it, losing teeth is normal, and so is losing confidence in your smile as a result. For years, the only option was replacing each missing tooth individually. Recently, there’s a new kind of dental implant that makes regaining your smile a lot easier: All-on-4 dental implants.
All-on-4 dental implants are a more permanent and simpler solution to tooth loss. With all-on-4 dental implants, your dentist will place four titanium posts into your jawbone. The anchors are placed at an optimal angle to provide support for your arch and complete stabilisation for your dentures. Your dentist will attach permanent dentures to the four anchors to create a seamless look around your entire mouth.
All-on-4 dental implants are a great choice for most people who have lost an entire set of teeth. Here are some of the benefits that patients enjoy:
All-on-4 implants are revolutionary, but that doesn’t mean they are the best choice for everybody. Your dentist should walk you through all of your options and the potential drawbacks to All-on-4 implants to help you make an informed decision for your smile and your health!
Some important considerations about All-on-4 implants include:
With proper care, All-on-4 can last up to 20 years! You can care for your All-on-4 implants just as you would care for your natural teeth. Brush and floss daily, and make sure you schedule regular dental cleanings. Your dentists will give you specific care instructions after your procedure.
The All-on-4 technology is designed to fuse to your bone much faster than traditional implants. While recovery looks different for everyone, most patients only need about three months until their new teeth are stable.
After your implant surgery, you will rinse your mouth with salt water to keep your gums and new teeth free of bacteria.
If you’re considering dental implants, All-on-4 implants might be the right choice for you! Visit a qualified dental professional who can advise you on the best choice for your dental implants and ensure a seamless procedure and recovery.
