The Benefits of All-on-Four
Unbeatable Lifespan
Dental implants usually last 30+ years with proper care. You may be able to keep your implants for the rest of your life. And while your full-arch bridges may need to be replaced eventually, they will last much longer than a set of dentures, which need to be replaced as often as every 5 years.
Lifelike Results
All-on-Four full-arch bridges are built from porcelain, which looks very similar to your natural teeth. They will look completely natural. Your new smile will feel natural, too. Because they're supported by dental implants, your new teeth will never move or shift when you chew, eat, speak, or smile.
Better Oral Healt
Unlike dentures, dental implants help protect your jaw bone, and prevent bone resorption due to tooth loss. Over time, bone resorption can cause changes to your appearance and can negatively affect your oral health. With All-on-Four, your dental implants stimulate your jaw bone, keep it healthy, and help preserve your appearance and your oral health, too.
The All-on-4® Implant Process
Implant Placement Surgery
To begin the process, your dentist will take x-rays and develop a treatment plan. Then, your dentist will place your dental implants. They will clean and numb your mouth, then place your implants precisely based on your surgical plan. All-on-Four implants are placed at a special angle to anchor them to your jaw, and provide a tight hold with just 4 implants. Other methods of full-arch restoration require as many as 8 implants.
Healing & Building Your Fixed Bridge
Immediately after implant placement, you’ll get a temporary set of teeth. You will need to eat a soft diet and follow special recovery instructions to make sure your mouth heals properly after surgery. Initial recovery takes just a couple of weeks, but it will take up to 3-6 months for your implants to bond to your jaw. You’ll come in for some follow-ups to check your progress, and to allow your dentist to begin building your All-on-Four bridges.
Final Bridge Placement
Once your mouth has healed and your All-on-Four bridges are done, you’ll come to our office for a final appointment. Your dentist will remove your temporary teeth, then check the fit of your bridges. Once everything looks perfect, they’ll be permanently attached to your implants. Then, you’ll go home and enjoy your brand-new set of teeth.
