An ideal solution for patients who need numerous teeth replaced. With All-on-4 dental restoration at Spring Creek Dental in Fort Collins, dental implants function and feel like normal teeth.
All-on-4 Dental Implants: More Stable and Secure than Standard Dentures.
The All-on-4 Dental Implant procedure is an option for patients who need numerous teeth replaced, or even a whole upper or lower set of teeth. By using just 4 dental implants instead of one implant per tooth, the procedure is minimally invasive and can replace an entire set of teeth without the need for repeat surgical visits.
In addition to the short treatment timeframe, All-On-Four dental implants have a number of advantages over conventional dentures. All-On-Four implants are more stable and secure, which greatly reduces the jawbone resorption that occurs with standard dentures.
About the All-on-4 Dental Implant procedure
All-on-4 Dental Implants are a popular treatment option for patients who are missing the majority or all of their natural teeth. There are a variety of dental implant and orthodontic appliance solutions that can address missing teeth, so in determining what solution is correct for you, it is important to consider the treatment time, comfort and feel of the implant or denture, as well as the overall cost.
Advantages to All-on-4 include:
- Less invasive procedure, due to purposeful angulation
- Usually placed the same day as tooth extraction
- Implant feels and looks natural
- Prevents jawbone deterioration
- Typically less costly than traditional implants, especially when the majority of teeth are missing
- Bone graft not generally required
- Permanent solution, provided the patient practices good oral self-care
