Dentures With Lifelike Implant Posts
Dentures are designed to rebuild your smile when you’ve lost a significant amount of teeth on your dental ridge. With the ability to customize your denture (i.e., full or partial denture), we can help ensure your restoration closely matches your healthy, natural teeth in appearance. However, to make your denture more closely mimic the function of your teeth, the All-on-4 procedure secures it with a set of dental implants. Made to replace your missing teeth roots, dental implants are placed within your jawbone and can be utilized to attach your denture with optimal comfort and stability.
What Are All-On 4 Implants?
Implant-retained dentures are similar to conventional dentures in that they’re designed to restore your entire dental ridge. However, unlike conventional dentures, the All-On-4 procedure provides the addition of 4 root-like posts that stabilize your replacement teeth more effectively than adhesives. This means your denture won’t just reestablish your smile’s appearance and restore your ability to eat comfortably, but it will engage the vital function of your teeth’s missing roots. That includes stimulating your jawbone when you bite and chew, which helps keep it strong and healthy after losing multiple teeth.
Do I Qualify For All-On-4?
If you’ve lost most or all of your healthy teeth on your upper or lower dental ridge, then an All-On-4 denture may be the best option for restoring your smile. Most patients who’ve experienced tooth loss also qualify for dental implants. To determine if this procedure is right for you, we’ll carefully examine your jawbone and gums to ensure that they are healthy enough for implant posts. Your examination may include the use of advanced digital imaging technology to gain a clearer picture of your oral health and candidacy for implant placement.
