If you have a missing tooth, you know how it affects your appearance and smile. In addition, you may feel less confident about yourself and avoid smiling at others. Now think about if you have several missing teeth; it can be even more challenging.
Missing teeth are not only an aesthetic concern, however. At Sullivan Dental Partners, our top priority is your oral health and missing teeth can cause other problems. That’s why you should consider All-on-4 dental implants.
What Are All-on-4 Dental Implants?
All-on-4 dental implants, also known as full arch implants, are designed to restore both the function and the appearance of your teeth. If you have several missing teeth on the same arch, the dental professionals in Nashville, TN, can replace them in one visit.
Are You a Candidate for All-on-4 Dental Implants?
Traditional dental implants require some patients to undergo a bone graft, sinus lift, or gum disease treatment before they are eligible for dental implants. With All-on-4 dental implants, you can avoid those procedures. You may be a candidate if you have any of the following:
- Lost or damaged teeth along the same arch
- Gum disease that makes you ineligible for regular dental implants
- A history of dental trauma
- Jawbone loss that limits other implant options
Many patients who have been told they're not eligible for standard dental implants may still quality for All-on-4.
What Is the All-on-4 Dental Implant Procedure?
The All-on-4 dental implant procedure is considered a minor surgery, but you will be sedated to feel relaxed and comfortable.
The process is very straightforward; your dentist will:
- Take digital X-rays before the procedure to create the best plan for your mouth.
- Prepare your arch by removing your broken teeth (if necessary).
- Open your gum tissue and place your implants at an angle to increase stability.
- Connect an abutment to each implant.
- Add your new denture plate to your mouth.
All-on-4 dental implants make reduced chair time and reduced recovery time a reality. You can be headed home in just about two hours with your smile restored.
