All on four implants
At Space Dental, we offer multiple forms of tooth replacement options to give our patients the confidence and perfect ability to showcase their smiles and restore their oral function. All on four dental implants are a popular treatment option for patients looking for a permanent tooth loss solution, specifically for people who are missing their teeth on one or both rows of their teeth.
Missing multiple teeth can be a stressful time and can massively impact your usual day-to-day activities, such as speaking, eating and smiling. Having All on Four dental implants is a tooth loss solution that not only enhances the appearance of your smile but provides longevity and permanence that alternative treatments, such as dentures, can’t provide.
What To Expect From All On Four Dental Implant Treatment
The first step in the process of getting All on Four dental implants is to have an initial consultation carried out. This consultation will take place at our clinic and is the perfect time to address any concerns you may have when it comes to All on Four implants. A full oral hygiene exam must take place before All on Four dental implant treatment is given the go ahead, and this will be completed within an hour by our dental team.
Once we have confirmed you are a good candidate for All on Four dental implant treatment, the process can begin assuming that there are no teeth needing to be extracted. The implants, either all on four or all on six implants if applicable, will be fitted into the jaw bone to allow the implants to fuse with the bone and provide a comfortable site for the final implant. Temporary teeth will be attached to the implants whilst the healing is taking place so that you’re not left with missing teeth during this time. The healing process can take a number of months, but once completed, the final crowns can be inserted, completing the overall treatment!
Who Qualifies For All On Four Dental Implants?
All on Four dental implants are not suitable for everyone, but they are advised for patients who have multiple or full rows of teeth missing, requiring a comprehensive dental restoration. Determining whether All on Four dental implants are right for you is best decided during a consultation in our luxury dental practice. We can also make a more educated decision following a dental hygienist appointment, which would happen after your initial consultation. We carry out a hygiene appointment before all treatments as our main goal is not only focused on enhancing the appearance of your smile, but ensuring that it is healthy, too. We don’t want to carry out any treatment where your teeth might not be in the best health, which means that the results you achieve are not up to your expectations, or risk further damage to your teeth.
All on Four dental implants are ideal for patients who are looking for a long term solution to tooth loss. Many people opt for dentures as a cost-effective solution for tooth loss, however, dentures simply do not have the longevity that implants can provide and require more maintenance. All on Four dental implants are permanent and, in the majority of cases, can be expected to last over a decade.
This time frame can be extended with good care and maintenance, and patients have even reported their All on Four dental implants last even longer than this. The correct care and maintenance can increase the chances of longevity, however, wear and tear is not unheard of and is to be expected over long periods of time.
