Knowing what implant option is right for you is stressful. With many different options from single tooth dental implants to full arch dental implant options, finding the best solution for you can be overwhelming. New SMile Now ™ Home of New SMile Now ™ Home of The Facial Surgery Centerin Pennsylvania offers a great new solution to help simplify these concerns, the All-On-4® Full Arch Dental Implants solution!
What is All-On-4®?
All-On-4® is a hybrid denture full-arch implant solution. This is a permanent solution, unlike normal dentures, which requires a small all-in-one-day surgery. This is to set the four posts that will support the full arch and keep them from shifting or falling out.
This solution is a non-grafting solution meaning the procedure requires less time and less healing afterward. With over a ninety-five percent success rate and an average follow-up of seven and a half years, All-On-4® is a great solution for anyone looking for a full-arch dental implant.
Your Step By Step Guide to Getting All-On-4®
How to go about getting All-On-4® dental implants is pretty simple. First, you have to schedule an initial consultation with a dentist to get some mouth X-rays and to go over a treatment plan. Then, depending on the needs of your unique case, you will need to have mouth preparation work done. This means clearing out any teeth or debris that may get in the way of the procedure. This may also mean cleaning out any infections.
Following this, it is surgery time! A local anesthetic is used to numb the area while the four posts are placed. Two are usually placed toward the front of the mouth while two are placed toward the back of the mouth. The comes fitting the hybrid denture. Most of the time, this can be done the same day but sometimes requires up to a week depending on how much time your mouth needs to heal.
