All on four
The All-On-4 system strategically angles four implants in the upper or lower jaw bone, rather than positioning them straight up and down. This relieves stress points on the implants and gives each more strength so four implants are able to support more load than through previous methods. This system is more affordable than many traditional forms of implants because it relies on fewer implants to secure a full arch. It is also an excellent option for patients with a limited amount of bone and is a non-removable option with teeth that can be attached immediately.
What does getting dental implants involve?
Immediate Implant Placement
When one or more teeth are missing in a row, one implant can often support a bridge of teeth. This can also be attached the same day the tooth (or teeth) are removed in many cases. Another benefit of same-day implant placement is the preservation of the gum contours. When a tooth is lost, the arch of gum tissue and “points” formed by gum tissue between each tooth begin to flatten out within days. When an implant is immediately placed and the tooth attached the same day, the natural contours of the gum tissue can be preserved.
Preventing bone loss is an additional advantage of immediate implant placement. When the implant can be inserted as soon as the tooth root is removed, there is no risk of ‘resorption.’ Resorption occurs when tooth roots are no longer present to provide stimulation to the bone. Without this, the bone begins to shrink, or ‘resorb.’ It is a fact that the teeth adjacent to areas of bone loss have the greatest risk of being the next to be lost.
Traditional Dental Implants
Removable – Certain types of teeth attached to dental implants can be removed for easy cleaning and maintenance. These are mostly full arches that are attached to several strategically placed upper or lower implants. Some patients opt for removable types since they require less implants and can therefore be more affordable.
Fixed – Non-removable teeth are more appealing to those who want the feeling of having their ‘own teeth’ back again. These are fixed to the implants and are brushed in the mouth, flossed just like real teeth, and do not come in and out.
