You have many options for replacing missing teeth with dental implants at Colorado Smiles. If you’ve lost many or most of your teeth, you should consider full-arch dental implants.
For this implant treatment, your dentist will attach a complete arch of replacement teeth to as few as four implants in your upper or lower jaw. This technique is typically called an All-on-4 procedure.
To see if you are a candidate, call us today at 888-495-5508 to schedule a consultation in Montrose, CO. In the meantime, check out some of the benefits of full-arch implants:
- Smile Sooner – With an All-on-4, it’s often possible to get your implants and new teeth in one appointment. Your dentist will place four (or sometimes six) implants, then attach an arch of teeth to them. You’ll wear it while your implants heal. Once they have, you’ll return to our office for a more permanent set of replacement teeth. With your temporary teeth, you can show off a full smile and eat many foods while you heal.
- More Affordable – Eight implants are typically used for implant dentures. With only half that many used for All-on-4, your full-arch treatment often costs less.
- Easier on Your Jaw – Using fewer implants also means your treatment is easier on your jaw. Your procedure will take less time, and you’ll heal more quickly too.
- Simple Maintenance – Removable teeth are cleaned with denture tablets and soaking. But the teeth you receive with an All-on-4 stay fixed in place. Brushing and flossing are all that’s needed to keep them clean. Your dentist can remove your teeth if any extra maintenance is required.
- Natural Feel and Function – Implants keep your teeth securely in place. Unlike traditional dentures, you won’t have to worry about embarrassing movement. Your teeth won’t slip, and you’ll never need adhesive. It’s easier to eat and speak.
- Younger Appearance – Dental implants serve the same purpose as natural tooth roots. In addition to keeping teeth in place, they also stimulate new bone growth in your jaw. This maintains your facial structure, so you’ll look younger. You also won’t need relining procedures to maintain a snug fit for your replacement teeth.
