By using fewer dental implants to support the prosthesis, there is a smaller number of components, thus more versatility to design the most optimal function and aesthetics. Importantly there is also less in the way of cleaning, which helps simplify the hygiene and maintenance over time.
This procedure is the most common treatment in our clinic today for full arch rehabilitation, and is often suitable for all lower jaws and most uppers. But even in the of extremely poor quality or quantity of bone, at Port Melbourne Dental we can still offer reliable and streamlined immediate solutions using our implant treatments.
The All-on-4 concept involves the immediate fitting of the prosthesis to the fixtures, also known as Immediate Loading. It sounds simple, and this is exactly what we aim for our patients to experience. However, it’s not to be mistaken as being a simple procedure. It is a highly advanced surgical procedure that offers many advantages to traditional methods of teeth replacement. It also has remarkable success rates when performed by our experienced dentists with special training.
AM I A CANDIDATE FOR ALL-ON-4 TREATMENT?
If you’re considering All-On-4 treatment, you likely have all or most of your teeth missing. Perhaps you have also tried dentures and have come to the conclusion that you want a more secure and comfortable solution.
With All-on-4 treatment, you simply need to have good oral health and no signs of gum disease or other dental conditions that could interfere with the placement of the implants! What’s more? You can still choose All-On-4 treatment, even if you have low bone density.
To determine if you’re eligible for the procedure, we recommend consulting with one of our qualified dentists for a more thorough assessment.
HOW DURABLE ARE ALL-ON-4 IMPLANTS?
Our All-on-4 implants are designed to be long-lasting and durable. With proper care and maintenance, including regular dental check-ups and a good oral hygiene routine, they can last a lifetime!
The titanium implants themselves are incredibly strong and integrate with your jawbone, becoming a permanent part of your mouth. The fixed set of teeth attached to these implants is generally made of high-quality materials like acrylic or porcelain, making them a reliable solution for full-arch replacement.
HOW DO I CARE FOR MY ALL-ON-4 IMPLANTS?
The great thing about implants is that maintenance is quite simple! It only takes a few extra minutes each day to ensure your smile is future-ready. Here’s what you should do:
- Brush your teeth twice a day for two minutes using a soft-bristled toothbrush. Make sure to brush all the surfaces of your mouth to prevent plaque and tartar build-up.
- Use an interdental brush to clean hard-to-reach areas like under your All-On-4 tooth bridge.
- Floss your teeth using regular floss or a water flosser to remove trapped food particles between your teeth and gums.
- Rinse using an antibacterial mouthwash or warm saltwater rinse.
- Visit the dentist every 6 months for a regular check-up.
