What are All-On-4 Dental Implants?

All-on-4 dental implants are dental implants that replace an entire arch of teeth. However, unlike traditional dental implants that require an implant for each missing tooth, all-on-4 implants require only four titanium posts to be inserted into your jaw as anchors for a complete set of teeth. This technique ensures that your artificial teeth will remain firmly in place and create a strong, long-lasting foundation for your realistic-looking, functional tooth replacements. Over time, the posts will fuse to living bone, making it a permanent solution to your dental issues.
 
Understanding the All-On-4 Dental Implant Procedure.

Receiving all-on-4 dental implants is a process that begins with a consultation. During this consultation, we will listen to your goals and provide a thorough explanation of what to expect. The procedure involves making small incisions in your gums to surgically place titanium posts into your mouth. Then, you must wait three to six months for the implants to fuse to your jawbone. Next, we will attach small connectors called abutments to the four implants in your jaw and take impressions of your mouth that our lab can use to customize crowns or bridges. While we are making these restorations, we will provide temporary artificial teeth. Your final appointment will involve attaching your permanent restorations and ensuring a perfect fit. We use state-of-the-art equipment and technology to guarantee your comfort and minimize downtime.
 
What to Expect Following All-On-4 Dental Implant Surgery.

  Your All-On-4 Dental Implant Surgery will require multiple days of rest and recovery. We recommend staying at home for the first three days following your operation to aid in the healing process. If you opt for anesthesia, you can expect slight lightheadedness and nausea in the immediate aftermath of surgery. It would be best to have a family member stay with you for 12 to 24 hours. As you recover, refrain from probing or pulling at the surgery site. Doing so could cause your sutures to tear, which would prolong your healing time. We may recommend or prescribe medication to help you deal with the discomfort. We also suggest applying an ice pack to the area in 15-minute intervals for the first day to minimize swelling. A warm washcloth will help keep swelling down during the following days. You can also expedite the recovery process by refraining from physical activity for the first week following surgery. Continue to practice proper oral health routines to keep your mouth clean, but do not floss for the first two weeks post-op.
