Who is a Candidate for All-on-4 Surgery?
Candidates for full mouth dental implants through the All-on-4 procedure typically include individuals who have lost multiple teeth or suffer from extensive tooth decay, gum disease, or bone loss. This procedure is especially beneficial for patients dissatisfied with dentures or other removable dental solutions.
Adequate bone structure is necessary to anchor the implants, but even patients with bone loss may still qualify with certain preparatory treatments.
All-on-4 Dental Implants Process
The all on four dental procedure begins with a detailed consultation and digital imaging to map out the optimal placement of the implants. On the day of the procedure, any necessary extractions are performed, and four implants are strategically inserted into the jawbone to provide maximum stability.
A temporary prosthetic arch is affixed to the implants, allowing patients to leave the office with a functional, natural-looking smile. After the healing period, a custom, permanent prosthetic is attached to the implants.
All-on-4 Dental Implants Aftercare
After receiving dental implants in a day, it's crucial to follow specific aftercare guidelines to ensure proper healing and long-term success.
Patients should maintain a soft diet for the first few weeks of recovery, avoiding hard or sticky foods. Good oral hygiene is essential, including regular brushing and gentle rinsing to prevent infection.
Additionally, patients should attend all follow-up appointments with their dental provider to monitor healing progress and ensure the implants are integrated properly.
