Dental implants offer a valuable treatment solution to anyone who has lost one or more teeth. Millions of Americans are affected by tooth loss caused by injury, illness, prescription medication use, and other reasons. The loss of a single tooth can accelerate the loss of adjacent teeth, so addressing this concern is an important part of preserving your oral health for the long term. All-on-4® dental implants are an alternative to traditional dentures that provide comfort, convenience, and ease of care along with the confidence that comes from improving the smile’s appearance. Oral and Facial Surgeons of Arizona specializes in providing patients with a wide spectrum of care solutions for tooth loss, as well as many other concerns.
Many Benefits for Patients Who Have Lost Teeth
Patients seek alternatives to traditional dentures for many different reasons. All-on-4 implants make use of current leading dental implant technology to improve patients’ experience and functionality. The All-on-4 implant procedure has many advantages to offer, including:
• Implants are fixed permanently in place, so patients experience greater security when biting, chewing, and speaking.
• Dental implant crowns are carefully fashioned to match adjacent teeth; the cosmetic results of the All-on-4 are highly pleasing.
• This procedure makes use of durable titanium posts that are set directly into the jaw bone. These help stimulate the bone tissue, thereby preventing the jaw deterioration that some denture users experience.
• All-on-4 implants can be cared for with a patient’s favorite toothpaste and toothbrush. There is no need to buy expensive pastes, cleansers, or adhesives.
Can All Patients Benefit From All-on-4 Dental Implants?
All-on-4 implants are a good treatment solution for many patients who have experienced tooth loss. Dental implants are highly stable and have the potential to provide a lifetime of improved oral health. Treating tooth loss in a proactive and considered manner has many long term benefits. However, not everyone is an ideal candidate for this system; traditional dentures, other forms of bridgework, or other dental implant solutions might be better treatment options. The best way to determine if All-on-4 Implants are right for you is to make an appointment for a consultation. Our specialists can evaluate the distinct care needs of every patient and recommend a course of treatment.
