All-On-4® Dental Implants In Phoenix, AZ: Transform Your Smile

The Process Typically Involves the Following Steps:

• Initial Consultation: A comprehensive examination of your oral health, including X-rays and impressions, is conducted to assess your eligibility for the procedure.
• Treatment Planning: The dentist collaborates with Dr. Trujillo to create a customized treatment plan based on your specific needs and oral condition.
• Preparation: If there are any remaining teeth in the arch, they may be extracted during this phase.
• Implant Placement: Dental implants, usually four in total, are strategically placed in the jawbone. These implants serve as anchors for the prosthetic teeth.
• Temporary Prosthesis: A temporary set of teeth is attached to the implants on the same day of the surgery. These temporary teeth allow you to have functional teeth immediately while the implants integrate with the jawbone.
• Healing Period: Over the next few months, the implants undergo a process called osseointegration, during which they fuse with the jawbone.
• Final Prosthesis: Once the implants are fully integrated, a permanent, custom-made set of teeth is created. This can be a fixed bridge or a removable overdenture, depending on the specific case.
• Follow-Up Appointments: Regular check-ups are scheduled to monitor the healing process, adjust the prosthetics, and ensure the overall success of the procedure.

It’s important to note that the specifics of the Teeth-in-a-day procedure may vary based on individual cases and the preferences of the dental professionals performing the treatment. Additionally, advancements in dental technology and techniques may lead to variations in the procedure over time.

Benefits of All-On-4® Immediate Dental Implants

The All-on-4®procedure has several benefits worth considering besides the fact that this procedure allows you to replace all of your teeth with implant-supported dentures in a day. These benefits include:

• Permanent teeth placement.
• Fixed in place so that they don’t shift or slip like dentures.
• Look and function like natural teeth.
• Simple maintenance without the need to remove them at night.
• Implant-supported dentures don’t irritate or inflame your gums, unlike traditional dentures.
• Maintain your facial features and prevent bone loss over time, which is common with missing teeth.
• Implant-supported dentures allow a healthy bite so you can eat, speak, and live normally.

The dental implants used in the Teeth in a Day procedure are also incredibly realistic, mimicking the natural color and opacity of your existing teeth. Dental implants also prevent further bone loss, help to restore chewing function, and are easier to care for than dentures.
