What Is the All-on-4 Dental Implant Process?

all 4 on 4 dental implants

If you are in search of a permanent and reliable solution to restore all your upper or lower teeth, you’ve come to the right place. Santa Teresa Dental is pleased to offer All-on-4 dental implants to restore your healthy, functional smile. The gold standard tooth replacement solution will enhance your oral health and quality of life. 

What Are All-on-4 Dental Implants?

All-on-4 dental implants replace a full arch of teeth in the upper or lower jaw. They are permanent alternatives to removable dentures, providing superior comfort, function, and aesthetics. 

Replacing each missing tooth with a dental implant is neither cost-effective nor necessary. As the name implies, All-on-4s rely on as few as four implants placed strategically for support, providing unmatched stability, function, and durability. Your new dental prosthesis will stay in your mouth permanently, delivering a healthy, seamless smile. 

What Are the Advantages of All-on-4s?

All-on-4 dental implants offer numerous benefits, including the following:

  • You can transform your smile by replacing your entire set of missing teeth in just one appointment with just one surgery.
  • They are permanent restorations that look, feel, and function like natural teeth. 
  • They are secured to your jawbone, so they will never shift or slip.
  • They typically don’t require bone grafting as with other types of dental implants.
  • Caring for your All-on-4s is the same as caring for natural teeth.
  • They allow you to bite, chew, and enjoy your favorite foods without pain or worry.
  • They do not place any pressure on your gums, making them a comfortable tooth replacement option.
  • They stimulate your jawbone and prevent bone deterioration, enhancing your oral health and preserving your facial structure.
  • They are cost-effective compared to replacing each tooth individually.
  • They provide unmatched results, comparable to having healthy, natural teeth.

What Is the All-on-4s Procedure?

We will start with a consultation to evaluate your unique needs and determine whether All-on-4 dental implants are right for you. Next, we will create a custom treatment plan, including the placement of your dental implants and the design of your new teeth. 

Placing your All-on-4 dental implants can be completed in just one appointment. We will start by removing any remaining teeth and infected tissues from the gums and jaws and place four dental implants in strategic locations of the jawbone. The last step is attaching your All-on-4 dentures that are made to look, feel, and function like your natural teeth. 

Are You a Candidate for All-on-4 Dental Implants?

Candidates for All-on-4 dental implants are individuals with all their teeth in the upper or lower jaw damaged or missing. Unlike most traditional dental implant restorations, patients with advanced periodontitis are treated easily using All-on-4s. 

You may also be a candidate for All-on-4 implants if you have loose or floppy traditional dentures. We will simply convert your restorations to All-on-4s, providing you with enhanced comfort and function.  

What Is the Success Rate for All-on-4 Dental Implants?
