How Do All-on-4 Dental Implants Work?

The concept of All-on-4 is fairly simple: after capturing 3D images and creating surgical guides, our dentists refer you to an oral surgeon in the area who places just four dental implants in your jawbone, providing ample support for a full denture. These implants are positioned strategically in order to take advantage of the available bone density in your jaw. Following the surgery, you’ll receive a prosthetic that same day, with a permanent one being placed after you’ve healed (which should take a few months).

Am I a Good Candidate for All-on-4 Dental Implants?

If you’re missing all of the teeth in your upper and/or lower jaw, and you have good oral health and a strong jawbone, there’s a high likelihood that you’ll be eligible for All-on-4. Of course, your implant dentist in Vero Beach will have to closely examine your mouth and jaw to be sure that you’re a good candidate. Even if you have untreated gum disease or other oral health concerns, we may still be able to help you qualify for All-on-4 with the right preparatory treatments.

Benefits of All-on-4 Implants

Compared to regular dentures, All-on-4 dental implants in Vero Beach are in a class of their own. They offer countless unique benefits. For example:

  • Your new teeth are permanently affixed onto posts that have fused with your jawbone. As a result, you can brush and floss just as you did with your natural teeth. No more worrying about taking out your denture for cleaning!
  • You’ll be able to chew all of your favorite foods with the confidence that your teeth will never shift or fall out of your mouth.
  • Because of the advanced technology that we use, as well as the fact that the implants become part of your jaw, your replacement teeth will look and feel as natural as your old ones did!
  • The implant posts strengthen your jawbone, preventing it from shrinking as it ordinarily does after teeth are lost.

All-on-4 vs. Traditional Dental Implants

All-on-4 is similar to a traditional implant denture, but it differs in a few key ways:

  • Implant dentures normally require between six and eight implant posts for support, whereas All-on-4 only needs – you guessed it – four. This makes All-on-4 a more cost-effective option.
  • Because All-on-4 implants are positioned at particular angles and locations in the jaw, it may be possible to receive them without undergoing a bone graft beforehand, unlike with traditional dental implants.
  • All-on-4 lets you receive a temporary set of teeth immediately after your implants are placed, while you may need to go without teeth for several months with a conventional implant denture.
