14 Oct All-On-Four Means A Full Smile In One Visit
When you have lost several teeth and need a set of dentures, we can offer an alternative to traditional dental implant dentures. With the All-On-Four system, we can secure your new smile in only one visit. Our team at our dental implant center in Stillwater, OK wants to help you enjoy lifelike and long-lasting results.
A New Smile in One Visit
One major benefit of the All-On-Four process is that there is no waiting period between the placement of your dental implants and the attachment of your new teeth. With dental implant dentures, you have weeks or months between the placement of your new roots and the attachment of the denture. Since we use only four specially placed posts, which are smaller than traditional options and require less structure to stay in place, the entire process can take one visit. In addition, even if your jawbone has weakened following tooth loss, you could still receive these new teeth without the need for grafting or a sinus lift beforehand.
How to Get Started
We will begin by examining your smile to understand the cause of your tooth loss, as we may need to first manage issues like periodontal disease. We will also gently extract any remaining teeth and then take detailed images to plan the placement of your four dental implant posts. We then guide these into place with digital surgical guides, so they sit at the perfect angle, position, and depth to secure a new smile. Once these are in place, we attach a set of new ceramic teeth to them, which have been shaded to ensure a lifelike appearance. Once attached, this completes your new smile.
Keeping Your New Teeth Strong
When you leave, you do so with a new smile. We will provide instructions for eating and maintenance as your smile heals. When the area heals, you will be able to enjoy your favorite foods again, smile with confidence, and enjoy new teeth that don’t need to be removed for soaking or cleaning. Instead, they look and function like natural teeth, and preserve your jaw at the same time so you don’t develop an older appearance. This also enables them to last for decades to come, possibly a lifetime, with proper care.
