Welcome back to our four-part article series on the key features
and benefits of the "All-on-4TM" protocol. In our previous two articles,
we discussed the fact that this "breakthrough" dental implant technique
typically avoids the need for bone grafting surgery, saving patients
time, money and much discomfort. We also discussed the incredible
success rate of the procedure before explaining how it offers patients
superior aesthetic outcomes and a far more natural, beautiful and
confident smile!
In this article, the third installment of the series, we shall move on to perhaps one of the most important benefits of the "All-on-4TM": one that is unprecedented in the fields of fixed oral rehabilitation and dental implantology.
1. The "All-on-4TM" Gives Patients New Teeth in as Little as One Day
In almost all cases, the procedure required to give patients a new set of teeth can be completed within the space of a single day. What this means is that you wake up with your failing teeth or removable dentures in the morning and go to bed at night with a new set of fixed (non-removable) teeth. How is this possible?
Through the strategic placement and careful angulation of only four dental implants in regions of the jaw that are naturally more resistant to atrophy, enough support can be found for a full set of replacement teeth (in the form of a prosthetic dental bridge), typically without the need for bone grafting surgery first. By avoiding the need for bone grafting, patients are saved the many months it would take for their jawbones to heal before dental implants can be placed, not to mention the thousands of dollars they would have spent!
Furthermore, the "All-on-4TM" only requires four dental implants to provide patients with a complete set of new teeth and these can typically be placed in a single surgical procedure. In the case of traditional dental implant procedures, as many as 10 dental implants could be required per jaw and this would often entail multiple surgeries (including bone grafting) that would have to be spread out over the course of 12 to 18 months.
Essentially, prior to the innovation of the "All-on-4TM", the journey to fixed oral rehabilitation could take up to a year and a half before patients could eat, speak and smile with confidence! With this innovation, patients can literally get new teeth in one day.
5. New Teeth with the "All-on-4TM": High Hygiene Maintenance Capability
If you've worn dentures for any measure of time, you will empathize with the idea that brushing your teeth in your mouth is a long-forgotten privilege. For denture-wearers, maintaining a decent standard of oral hygiene involves a detailed routine of removing one's teeth after every meal or snack and again at nighttime. The "All-on-4TM" on the other hand provides patients with new teeth that are fixed in the mouth and are, similar to natural teeth, cleaned with regular brushing and flossing!
Additionally, owing to the slimmer construction of the prosthetic dental bridge and its snugger fit against the gums, it doesn't tend to trap bacteria and food debris like removable dentures do. This is not only far more hygienic for patients; it's also a lot more comfortable and pleasant! With the "All-on-4TM" you can forget about having to remove your teeth after meals and overnight, and you can forget about "denture breath".
Get New Teeth: Stay Tuned
