The All-on-4 Teeth in a Day procedure results in a beautiful, natural-looking smile with complete comfort. The procedure does not use mini dental implants, which do not have the same long-term success rates as full-size implants. Patients should exercise caution when choosing a dentist who uses mini implants. For your safety, your dentist should not use any implants other than those that are the same size as the rest of your teeth.
The procedure isn’t for everyone, but if you’re in good shape, you can benefit from it. This procedure involves a consultation, a 3D scan of your jaw, and a thorough examination by a physician. Then, your dentist will use this information to prepare a custom case for you. A patient can then schedule the procedure based on their needs and budget. The process itself can take as little as one day.
The All-on-4 procedure can replace a wide variety of missing or broken-down teeth. Dr. Sanger uses four specially designed implants in an arch to support the replacement teeth. The result is a beautiful, natural-looking smile. Patients often fly from other states for the procedure. While the majority of the work is done before the surgery, he works closely with the dentist to design the final appearance of the replacement teeth.
The success rate of the All-on-4 Teeth in a Day procedure is 95% for those with an experienced team of dental implant dentists. Patients should continue to practice excellent oral hygiene and schedule regular dental visits to ensure the implants last a lifetime. If you are a candidate for the All-on-4/Teeth in a Day procedure, be sure to schedule an appointment to discuss the results.
As with any surgical procedure, the All-on-4 dental implant procedure has its risks and can cause discomfort for patients. Some patients may have trouble chewing, while others may not be able to eat or speak normally for a few days. The patient should wear a flat-planed night guard for protection from the implant and new dentures. Patients should also be aware of speech problems, especially slurring when they pronounce the “S” sound. Patients should learn to adapt to these speech issues, as slurring is often related to improper care or the procedure itself.
All-on-Four procedures use four dental implants to replace the missing teeth. During the procedure, provisional teeth are placed so that the patients can function properly while the implants heal. After some healing time, the final dental prosthesis will be attached to the dental implants. Typically, the final prosthesis will be a fixed or removable bridge. In addition, this prosthesis can be removed for cleanings and maintenance.
The All-on-4 Teeth in a Day procedure is the most natural and effective way to replace missing teeth. It requires 4 dental implants to replace an entire set of teeth. It also allows patients to keep their smile as beautiful and functional as before. The procedure is highly technical and requires a highly trained dental lab technician and dentist. If you are considering this procedure, you can rest assured that it will be a fantastic experience.
