How Do Teeth-in-a-Day Work?

Illustration of all-on-4

A dental implant is a prosthetic tooth root that is constructed out of a titanium alloy. Titanium is the material of choice because it has the ability to bond with the surrounding tissue. This stabilizes the implant and prevents future bone loss. Dental implants serve as the anchors for a fixed hybrid bridge/denture. One of the things that makes Teeth-in-a-Day so unique from implant dentures is that they only require four strategically placed dental implants for maximum support. Since the dental implants are placed at strategic angles in the thickest area of the jaw, Teeth-in-a-Day minimizes the need for bone grafting. Once the dental implants are placed, abutments are attached and used to secure your custom denture in place. The best part: you get to show off a new smile on the same day as your dental implant procedure. You will be provided with a temporary restoration for about six months. At this point, we will begin the process of making your more durable, final restoration.

Am I a Candidate for Teeth-in-a-Day with All-on-4 Implants?

In order for us to assess your case, you will need to attend an initial consultation. During your appointment, we will determine if you are a candidate for All-on-4 Teeth-in-a-Day and answer your questions about the treatment. You are likely a good candidate if you are missing one or both arches of teeth. You may even be a candidate for Teeth-in-a-Day if you aren’t a candidate for traditional implant dentures. We will take some X-rays, perform a scan with our CBCT machine, take some impressions, and gather other images as needed. We will also determine whether you need extractions or other procedures prior to your implant treatment.

Benefits of All-on-4 Dental Implants

All-on-4 dental implants offer many benefits. Here are some of the most prominent ones.

  • Fixed: All-on-4 is fixed to the mouth, so your replacement teeth can be brushed like natural teeth. You don’t need to remove your dentures to clean your smile.
  • Comfortable: All-on-4 feels more like natural teeth than traditional dentures. After the adjustment period, they shouldn’t feel too much different.
  • Bite Force: All-on-4 dental implants restore more chewing power than traditional dentures do. This allows patients to enjoy a full, nutritious diet without restriction. Helahty Jawbone: Unlike traditional dentures, All-on-4 prevents jawbone loss.

All-on-4 vs. Traditional Implants

All-on-4 has a lot in common with the implant dentures. Here are a few things that make them unique from each other.

  • Number of implants: Implant dentures require up to eight dental implants for a stable smile, making them more expensive.
  • Bone Grafting: To get implant dentures, patients are more likely to need bone grafting.
  • Quicker: It takes many months to get implant dentures. All-on-4 sometimes allows patients to show off their smile on the same day!
