All-on-4® is a full procedure particularly designed for clients without enough jawbone for conventional dental implants. Previously, if a client had not enough bone left for implants, they only had two choices: routine dentures or a jawbone graft procedure. All-on-4® includes the choice for implants without necessitating a jawbone graft.
Why Use All-on-4®?
All-on-4® presents a variety of benefits not available with typical dental implants treatments. For example, All-on-4® is:
- Lesser Budget — Half the budget of dental implants usually comes from the demand for jawbone grafting. Eliminating jawbone grafts decreases the budget of the All-on-4® treatment.
- Heightened Grade — If you don’t experience jawbone grafts, you demand finer implants that can still fasten correctly to accessible bone. All-on-4® dental implants were only designed for this task.
- Minimal Time — All-on-4® eliminates the mending time involved for jawbone grafts and quickly provides an operational, healthy bond to the jawbones for the majority of patients.
- Superior Attractiveness — By installing teeth on the same day as the procedure, All-on-4® starts building patient confidence immediately!
So, if you’re done with broken dentures or have struggled to face life without teeth, the All-on-4® process is engineered to aid you and the Placerville Dental Group is ready to assist with this life-adjusting procedure.
The All-on-4® Procedure
Your First All-on-4® Consult
First, we desire to know what your objectives are for a full mouth rehabilitation. Are you content with your upper or lower jaw and only need to change one arch? Do both arches need modification? Do you have any medical, behavioral, or physical issues that determine the selections we make to create the most efficient possible outcome? Do you want permanently fixed dentures or “snap-in” artificial teeth that are detachable for cleaning?
Deciding on Dental Implant Installation
Once your plans have been discussed, the following stage is to discuss the placement of your dental implants. The technique of fastening dental implants necessitates a considerable deal of skill. To help with this, scans and x-rays are made to reveal the crucial jawbone structure that we employ to attach your dental implants. Based on the available bone, we determine the style of All-on-4® procedure required and the dental implants recommended to guarantee success.
How to Create the Right Smile
Digital studies about your jaw, gumline, and bone structure are used to construct guides that help the doctor to place the dental implants perfectly. Some tooth extractions may be essential, and adjustments might be made to your gumline for cosmetic reasons. The dental implants are all placed at the same time. For the majority of patients, after verifying the strength of the implants’ connection to the bone, temporary “healing dentures” are screwed into position on the dental implants, so you can depart our dental practice with a full set of teeth on the same day as your procedure.
Attaching the Dental Implants
Two to three months later, when the dental implants have integrated with your bone, we attach the permanent dentures and your All-on-4® procedure is completed. You depart with a fully capable set of teeth that rebuild your ability to eat, speak, sing and live the manner in which you want!
