If you have lost several of your natural teeth, such as a vast majority of them, then we can help. In fact, with implant-supported All-On-Four, we can offer a full smile in just one visit! In today’s blog, your team at Balboa Dental Surgery talks about one visit tooth replacement for Newport Beach, CA, patients with All-On-Four!
The Causes of Advanced Tooth Loss
How do we lose so many of our natural teeth? Severe tooth loss could be due to a number of factors, but the most common factor is periodontal disease. When you develop gum disease and the issue is not managed properly, this can allow the disease to reach a stage known as periodontitis. At this point, the connective tissues between the teeth and gums can deteriorate, leading to loose and missing teeth. Our team can discuss care to manage the disease, but what about your missing teeth? For people missing most or all of their natural teeth, we can provide a full set of new teeth.
Preparing for All-On-Four
Our team will first examine your smile. We can gently extract the last few teeth and will take images and impressions of your bite, examining your jawbone in the process. We want to choose the best angles, positions, and depths to insert your new dental implants. You only need four new posts per arch, and these will be surgically inserted. In the same visit, we will attach a complete set of new teeth, so you leave our office with a full smile!
Securing Your Smile
Our team will provide a complete set of new ceramic teeth, which can endure greater bite forces and be shaded to blend with your smile. We will connect these to the implant posts, which secures your new teeth firmly in place. They will look and act like natural teeth and have the potential to last for a lifetime. Once in place, they never need to be removed for maintenance, and never slip when you eat or drink. You will be able to feel confident when you laugh and smile, and we will discuss ways to ensure they have the chance to truly last, decades potentially!
If you have any questions about how we secure a whole new smile with All-On-Four dental implant dentures, then contact our team today to learn more and get started. You can enjoy life with a full smile again, and in only one visit.
