16 Dec The Process Of Securing Your Full Smile
With All-On-Four, we can place dental implants and then attach a full set of new teeth in only one visit. But how does this process work? What should you expect from the placement process? Our team at our dental implant center in Oklahoma City, OK is ready to help you secure a new and lifelike set of teeth!
Beginning with a Consultation
How do you get started? First, stop by our office so we can talk to you about your smile and dental history. We will look at your tooth loss. If you have lost most or all of your teeth, then we can likely offer a full smile again with All-On-Four. Our team will take detailed digital images of your smile from multiple angles, and use them to plan the placement process and to design your custom set of teeth. Once we have everything prepared and ready, you can come in for tooth replacement, which will only take one visit to complete!
Inserting Your New Roots
Unlike traditional dental implants, the posts we use for All-On-Four and smaller and require less structure to remain in place. We will extract the last few teeth and then insert these posts at specific angles, positions, and depths to ensure they can stimulate the growth of jawbone structure and prevent the breakdown that usually follows tooth loss. This means your jawbone remains intact and your new teeth can last for decades to come! Once the four posts are in place, we will immediately move forward with completing your new smile. No need to wait for weeks or months for the placement area to heal, we can complete your smile in one sitting.
Attaching Your New Teeth
Your new teeth will be custom-made to ensure they not only look natural, but that they can absorb daily bite forces too. We will shade them to ensure they look natural and then attach them to your implant posts. They can then stay in place for years to come and don’t need to be removed for cleaning or soaking, and they never slip when you eat or speak. Instead, they will look and function like natural teeth, so you can feel confident in your appearance and eat your favorite foods again.
If you have any questions about addressing your tooth loss in one visit, or if you want to get started soon, then contact our team today. We look forward to helping you smile with confidence again!
