Overview
Nobel Biocare’s All-on-4 dental implants provide a revolutionary approach to fasten dentures to get a total restoration. This treatment works by placing the screws (implants) to four spots on the upper and/or lower arch. In contrast to other enhancement dentures, All-on-4 utilizes fewer implants to give you a more secure hold. Our dental team suggests All-on-4 implants if you are wanting a completely restored mouth without the bother and diet limitations of removable dentures. Several DFW area patients have enjoyed the advantages of the new All-on-4 treatment, appreciating quality outcomes. If you are interested in discovering more information on All-on-4 and custom-made dentures, then we encourage you to make a consultation at Ah! Dentistry.
Best Candidates
Dental implants by All-on-4 may be utilized to substitute the lower and/or upper dental arches together with implanted screws connected to dentures made custom for you. You could be a good candidate for All-on-4 implant dentures in the event that you prefer the advantages of implant-supported dentures compared to traditional, removable dentures, including no or few diet limitations, no sticky glues, and no denture soaking required. You will need to have sufficient gum and bone density to get implants since the implants rely upon your gums and bone to keep them in position. If necessary, gum and/or bone grafts might be required before implant placement. We can ascertain if this treatment is good for you in your consultation and will help talk about all your choices.
What to Expect
First, we will take impressions and x-rays of your mouth. Your Ah! Dentistry dentist will develop your personal treatment program and go over your choices for sedation throughout your procedures. During your first procedure, the dental implants will be set in your dental arch. A temporary cover will be placed to protect the dental implants as your gums and jawbone recover and your dentures are crafted. In a few months, you should come back to get your custom-made dentures connected and possibly adjusted for a more comfortable fit.
Recovery
You might feel some pain and discomfort in your mouth following implant surgery. When you are wearing temporary dentures, there’ll be some dietary limitations and cleaning directions to follow. You will also schedule routine follow-ups throughout the recovery period so we can assess your recovery and ensure that the implants are healing into your bone socket and gums. As soon as your custom dentures have been set, you should clean them just like normal teeth with regular flossing and brushing. You should still go to Ah! Dentistry for yearly examinations and twice-yearly professional cleanings to maintain your dentures, and so our dental team can track the health of your implants, gums, and jaw.
Insurance Coverage
Several insurance companies may provide partial coverage for All-on-4 implant dentures. It is very likely that there’ll be some personal expenses; however, our staff will use your insurance provider to optimize your policy. If you do not have insurance, Ah! Dentistry accepts numerous payments, such as medical financing. Our dental team will make your All-on-4 procedure fit into your budget.
