- The “All-on-4” term refers to a specific dental implant placement technique. At Park 40 we strategically place four dental implants into the jaw in the areas in which have the most bone available, then attach the permanent denture/bridge.
- The “4” in the term refers to the minimum number of implants needed. With that said, you may need more than four implants per jaw. Especially in the upper jaw where the bone tends to be softer.
- When most patients ask about “All-on-4” implants, what they really mean is “Are my teeth going to be fixed in place?” The answer is yes.
- The total amount of implants needed does vary from patient to patient and depends on how much bone the patient has and how many implants will be needed to support the prosthesis.
Many patients wonder what to expect with dental implant healing, but the truth is, that healing is fairly simple. For the first few weeks after surgery, be sure to eat soft foods and avoid foods and drinks with extreme temperatures. Additionally, do not drink from a straw for at least 24 hours. Patients may be sore after surgery and you may be prescribed prescription pain medication to control the levels of discomfort, although most don’t need it. You can resume gently brushing your teeth 24 hours after surgery, but should avoid smoking of any kind. Most patients typically feel back to their natural state around three days after surgery. You should schedule a follow up appointment just a few weeks after surgery so our doctors can evaluate your health and healing. Our team at Park 40 will help guide you through the process from beginning to end, ensuring you feel confident and comfortable with your decision in getting All-on-4 Dental Implants.
- Traditional, removable Dentures. Traditional, removable Dentures will replace all your teeth at a lower cost, but with that low cost comes serious disadvantages. Without implant support, these dentures will cause irritation of the gums and bone loss over time. Obtaining a proper fit and keeping these dentures in place will come with continuous frustrations and challenges.
- All-on-4 Dental Implants. All-on-4 dental implants are a complete full set of teeth implants that can replace the entire upper or lower set of teeth in the mouth. This type of implant will stay in the mouth permanently and look natural as real teeth. Our dental implants at Park 40 are individually composed of three parts. The implant is made out of a biocompatible titanium post, the abutment is made out of biocompatible titanium and the permanent bridge/denture is made out of Zirconia. The All-on-4 dental implant technique will give you permanent teeth that look, feel, and function just like real teeth. No one will know you have implants unless you tell them.
- Full Mouth Dental Implants. Full mouth dental implants can also be referred to as all-on-6 dental implants. Just like how the all-on-4 dental implants can replace a whole upper or lower set of teeth, this type of implant is used when there are too many teeth that need to be replaced in the mouth.
- Implant Supported Bridge. A dental implant supported bridge is used when a patient is missing multiple teeth adjacent to each other. The implant supported crown connects to the dental implant. The process for this procedure is very similar to the process used for a single tooth implant.
- Implant Supported Dentures. There are two types of implant supported dentures. Removeable and permanent. Implant-Supported Removable Dentures can detach from the implant post and be reattached by the patient at home. Permanent implant supported dentures are fixed onto implant posts and cannot be removed unless by a dental specialist for maintenance and repair. Permanent implant supported dentures are custom created for each patient to securely and properly fit their jaw.
