What if you could come in with advanced tooth loss and leave with a full smile? With All-On-Four, we could provide a complete smile in one visit, so you leave with a new and confident smile. In today’s blog, your Santa Rosa, CA, oral and maxillofacial surgeons talk about the All-On-Four system.
The Impact of Complete Tooth Loss
When we lose most of our teeth, this could severely limit our meal options. We not only miss out on our favorite dishes, but our body experiences a nutritional deficit. Missing teeth could also make clear speech difficult, impacting how you communicate and your overall quality of life. Your jaw will also begin to break down, as the body stops sending regular doses of nutrients to the areas without tooth roots. This leads to an older appearance. But with dental implant supported replacement teeth, such as All-On-Four, we could offer a full smile again, and in only one visit!
Placing Your Dental Implants
If your jaw weakens due to tooth loss, thus could mean you may need to undergo grafting or sinus lift procedures before we can move forward with dental implant placement. But with All-On-Four, we only use four small posts per arch, and these require less structure for support, so you can avoid surgery beforehand. We will insert these at specific angles, positions, and depths to ensure they can stimulate jawbone growth and support a full set of new teeth.
All-On-Four Smiles
Once the dental implants are in place, we will then attach a set of teeth. For some, this is the final and custom set of teeth. Others may need a temporary as we complete the final set. Regardless, you will leave our office with a full and beautiful smile, one that looks good and allows you to enjoy your favorite dishes again once the placement area heals. Since these stimulate the growth of the jaw and keep it intact, your new teeth can stay in place for decades to come, possibly a lifetime. They never slip, and you can enjoy a new smile that looks and functions like natural teeth.
