Recently learned your jawbone is too weak for traditional implants and will require a bone graft before you can even consider dental implants? With All-On-4 in Doylestown, you can skip the additional procedure and instead, rely on four dental implants to create a solid foundation that will support your customized denture. Considered to be one of the most popular and revolutionary solutions for individuals with missing teeth, All-On-4 is an ideal option for individuals who want the same, high-quality, restorative treatment but without the additional dental work. If you would like to schedule a consultation with Dr. Kandov, contact our office today to learn more.
All-On-4 uses four dental implants that are strategically placed throughout your upper or lower jawbone. Using a 3D Cone Beam Scanner, your implant dentist in Doylestown will capture high-resolution images that create a 3D model of your oral and facial structure. This allows her to properly plan and prepare for the placement of each implant, ensuring it rests in an area of the jawbone that is denser and offers greater support.
Two of the implants are placed toward the back of the mouth and angled at 45 degrees while the other two are surgically placed toward the front of the mouth, creating a solid, durable foundation.
If you are missing most or all of your teeth along the top or bottom row of your mouth, you may likely be an eligible candidate for All-On-4 dental implants in Doylestown. However, it is necessary that you have good oral health, in general, before moving forward with treatment. This means your gums are healthy and free of any disease, you do not have a compromised immune system, and you avoid poor lifestyle habits. If you smoke or drink alcohol excessively, these could compromise your smile and cause your dental implants to fail.
Dr. Kandov will ask you questions and review your medical history before deciding as to whether you are an eligible candidate for All-On-4.
With All-On-4, you will experience a wide array of outstanding benefits, all of which lead to life-changing results. Some of these benefits include:
A traditional implant-retained denture requires 6-8 dental implants. Patients who qualify for this type of procedure either have a strong jawbone to start or they must undergo a bone graft to add bone minerals to weakened areas. This not only incurs an additional cost, but it also requires patients to spend several months recovering from the bone graft before they can move forward with dental implants.
With All-On-4, that additional procedure is not required. Dr. Kandov will determine the denser areas of the jawbone during the planning phase, ensuring your implants are placed in parts of your jawbone that are stronger and will provide an excellent base for your custom-made denture.
You will also receive a temporary denture the same day as your All-On-4 implant placement, allowing you to feel more confident when leaving our dental office.
