What if you could enjoy a full smile in only one visit? Not only that, but what if we could secure these new teeth with dental implants, so they can potentially last for decades? In today’s blog, your Brooklyn, NY, periodontist and implant expert looks at the benefits of the All-On-Four same-day dental implant system.
The Impact of Advanced Tooth Loss
When you lose the vast majority of your teeth, this obviously impacts your appearance and could lead to issues with your social life and overall quality of life. But advanced tooth loss also means issues eating your favorite foods, and could deny you key nutrients too. You could have issues speaking clearly too, and without tooth roots to stimulate the growth of jawbone structure, the jaw could wear down and erode, leading to an aged appearance. As the jaw wears down, this could also complicate your ability to support dental implants. Fortunately, we can help with All-On-Four.
The All-On-Four System
With the All-On-Four system, we only need four dental implants per arch to support a full row of new teeth. Not only that, but these are smaller than normal posts and designed to require less structure to stay in place. Which means even if years have elapsed since you lost your teeth, you could still benefit from the placement of dental implants. These biocompatible titanium posts are inserted into the jawbone and act like new tooth roots. The body recognizes them as such, and resumes the flow of key nutrients to the jaw to keep it intact. This means as you can enjoy a full set of new teeth in only one visit, with results that can last for decades or even a lifetime in some cases!
Attaching Your New Smile
When we have inserted the new posts, we will connect abutments to them and then attach a new set of teeth. This could be the permanent set we custom-made for you, or a temporary that we will swap for the permanent one later on. We take care to ensure your new teeth look natural and can support the daily bite forces natural teeth do, so you can enjoy a full smile in one sitting. If you have any questions about how our team supports a full smile with All-On-Four, or if you would like to get started on your tooth replacement, then contact our team today to learn more.
