All-on-4® is a revolutionary procedure that provides you with everything dentures can’t. If you’ve always wanted implants but were missing too many of your original teeth, now could be the time to consider this option.
For years, dentures were the best solution for individuals missing most or all of their teeth. But a new, revolutionary treatment has been exciting patients all over the world and making dentures a thing of the past.
Call it Teeth-in-a-Day, All-on-4®, or full arch dental implants, this treatment allows us to provide you with a permanent solution to missing teeth that does so much more for you than dentures ever could.
At Ueno Center Dental Specialists, our founder, Jeremy K. Ueno, DMD, and team want you to have the best option possible when it comes to your oral health care. That’s why we offer All-on-4 treatments in our Campbell, California, office.
What All-on-4 is and how it works
All-on-4 is a procedure that allows you to have all of your missing teeth replaced on the same day.
This procedure is revolutionary, as people who receive dental implants often have to do so at multiple appointments. And if, in the past, you were missing a significant number of teeth, you would have been referred for dentures rather than implants.
The All-on-4 procedure involves taking images of your mouth and creating custom implants that are specific to you. We use 3D imaging to help us create these one-of-a-kind smiles that will have you feeling supported, healthy, and attractive.
Once you’re ready for the procedure, we place the implants all at once.
The name comes from the fact that we mount all of the replacement teeth onto just four implants on the bottom and top rows of your jawline. These allow you to wake up from your procedure with a full smile. Trust us, the reaction patients have to this is something that never gets old.
Benefits of All-on-4 over traditional dentures
Aside from being quick, why are All-on-4 procedures superior to other options? Let us give you the breakdown of the benefits of this procedure compared with dentures.
Permanence
The first thing that excites patients when they learn about All-on-4 is often the permanence of the procedure. Implants are meant to stay put, which means you don’t have to take them out when you sleep or to clean them the way you do with dentures.
In addition, they don’t move around in your mouth because the implants are inserted into your jawbone.
If you take good care of them, they often last for 20 years or more. Most dentures only last for about 5-10 years, depending on how well you care for them. All in all, patients love the permanence of this option, which offers so many benefits over dentures.
Comfort
Did we mention All-on-4 implants don’t slip and slide around? You also don’t need to affix them with glue or anything else; the implants take care of this. It makes them so much more comfortable than traditional dentures.
It’s common, too, to feel nervous that your dentures will slip out or make it harder to eat and talk. You won’t have any of these concerns with All-in-4, which feel so much more like natural teeth.
Aesthetics
Finally, consider the aesthetics of implants. Most people would always choose them because they look more natural than dentures. Dentures can become discolored quickly. With implants personally crafted for you, the aesthetic value is hard to ignore.
Is All-on-4 right for me?
This depends on your oral health, which and how many teeth you’re missing, and a number of other highly individualized factors. But we would be happy to discuss the procedure with you and to answer any questions you may have.
Why not consider All-on-4, especially if dentures are starting to sound like a thing of the past? We have appointments available at our Campbell, California, office. Just give us a call or make an appointment online today.
