08 Apr Smile Improvement in Just One Day
When you have teeth missing throughout your smile due to an injury, periodontal disease, or other health condition, you need a quick and effective way to replace your teeth and protect your smile. Prosthetic options like dentures and bridges may improve some functions but unfortunately do not protect your smile long-term. Dental implants offer your smile more stability, but it can take several months to complete the entire procedure. Your dental implant team in Stillwater, OK provides a prosthetic option, the all-on-4 bridge, that combines the best aspects of both prosthetics. In our blog today, we’re here to talk about how this treatment works.
Why Teeth in a Day
Teeth in a day (also known as all-on-4) is a prosthetic treatment option that allows you to have an improved smile in just one visit. Four strategically placed implants throughout your mouth create a sturdy foundation for the bridge. These posts will fuse with your jawbone to protect it from deterioration, improve functions like chewing, and prevent facial sagging. Unlike traditional implants, this method expedites the process and enables you to enjoy a healthier smile sooner. Additionally, it offers more stability than dentures, which may slip around, or traditional dental bridges, which are permanent but can wear down your other teeth if they are not properly supported.
Preparing for Your New Smile
So, you’re interested in this method and now need to take the next steps. You should first schedule a consultation with our team before proceeding. We can evaluate the severity of the tooth loss you are currently facing and determine if getting teeth in a day is right for you. The posts used for the implants are smaller, but you may still need jawbone grafting before getting them if you have experienced significant bone loss.
Benefits of All-on-4
An All-on-4 bridge offers several benefits for your oral health and confidence. First and foremost, you can receive a new set of teeth in just one day. This feature allows you to leave your visit feeling more confident and ready to get back to your life. Additionally, the bridge blends in seamlessly with your natural teeth. This means you don’t have to worry about it standing out. The prosthetic is custom-made for you, so it fits comfortably and addresses your needs. Knowing that your bridge is securely in place and protecting your smile from bone deterioration may also give you a sense of increased security. Your new prosthetic is easy to take care of with your regular oral hygiene routine and will last many years.
