Looking for permanent teeth replacement options? Ask our dental implant dentist if you’re a candidate for the all-on-4 procedure. As the name suggests, all-on-4 works by supporting an entire arch of false teeth with only four . If you’ve experienced severe tooth loss, it’s time to learn if all-on-4 dental implants are the right choice for you.
All-on-4 is a treatment concept in which a full-arch dental prosthesis is completely supported by four dental implants. Dr. Nazarian has expanded this concept to incorporate the use of six dental implants when possible. This helps to ensure the best possible bone health for our patients.
Placing six to eight dental implants provides a higher standard of care. Of course, the patient’s bone tissue conditions must permit the placement of six to eight implants.
What are All-On-4 (6) Dental Implants?
All-on-4 dental implants are different from implant-supported dentures because they’re not removable. The arch of false teeth is screwed into the implants and can only be removed by our dentist.
Advantages of All-On-4 (6) Dental Implants
Unlike dentures that rest on top of your gums, your all-on-4 dental implants will be embedded in your jawbone for the ultimate support. This means that you won’t have to worry about your new teeth slipping the next time you eat, talk, or smile.
Many of our patients appreciate that can be cared for like natural teeth. While implant-supported dentures have to be removed for cleaning, all-on-4 implants are permanently anchored to your jawbone. Another benefit is that you won’t have to take as much time off from work to recover from all-on-4 implants as you would with multiple single-tooth implants.
Who Can Benefit From All-on-4 Implants?
- Patients who need to replace an entire arch of missing teeth
- Patients who experience slipping or other problems with their dentures
- Patients who have dentures, but are suffering from bone and/or tissue loss
If you think may be the right solution for you, request a consultation with our dental implant dentist in Shelby Township, MI. Dr. Nazarian can speak with you about your options and determine whether or not all-on-4 implants are right for you.
