All-On-4 Dental Implants

All-On-4 Implant Dentistry

All-On-4® dental implants are a less invasive method to replace missing teeth. Missing teeth can make chewing and talking difficult, embarrassing, and uncomfortable. For patients who are missing the majority of their teeth of the lower or upper jaw, these tasks may be almost impossible. Dental implants are durable, natural-looking, and a permanent solution to missing teeth. While dental implants are an ideal replacement option for missing teeth, they require an anchor screw for each individual tooth being replaced. Patients who are replacing all of their teeth of the lower or upper jaw may benefit from All-On-4® dental implants in Washington, DC.

What are All-On-4 dental implants?

All-On-4® dental implants can replace all missing teeth of the upper or lower jaw. All-On-4® dental implants only use 4 anchorage screws to secure your dental implants, making the procedure less invasive than receiving individual dental implants for each missing tooth. All-On-4® dental implants can be used for patients with no teeth; they can also be used for patients who have experienced dental trauma or who are missing the majority of their teeth.

 

What are the benefits of All-On-4 dental implants?

All-On-4® dental implants are a durable, long-lasting solution to missing teeth. Following All-On-4® dental implant surgery, patients will have a full, natural-looking smile with teeth that feel, look, and function like natural teeth. Because All-On-4® dental implants only use 4 anchor screws to secure your dental implants, this procedure is less invasive than if you were to receive individual dental implants for each missing tooth. All-On-4® dental implants are quickly placed in one visit, meaning you are able to leave our office the same day with a new, full smile. Compared to traditional tooth replacement options, such as dentures or dental bridges, All-On-4® dental implants are more securely placed, last longer, and do not require special creams or pastes. While traditional tooth replacement options do not protect against jawbone loss, All-On-4® dental implants maintain healthy jawbone density and prevent jawbone resorption.

Do We remove teeth Before placing All-On-4 dental implants in Washington, DC?

If you have damaged or broken teeth, Dr. Pashapour and his surgical team can extract these teeth so that you can receive All-On-4® dental implants. Additionally, some patients may have lost all but 1 or 2 teeth of their upper or lower jaw. Instead of applying dental implants to each missing tooth, we can remove these last few teeth in order to place All-On-4® dental implants. All-On-4® dental implant surgery can only be performed when all of the teeth of the lower or upper jaw are removed. For this reason, All-On-4® dental implants are ideal for patients who are missing the majority of their teeth.

What should I expect during my All-On-4 dental implant surgery?

All-On-4® dental implants can replace your missing teeth in just 1 visit to our Washington, DC oral surgery office. The details of your All-On-4® dental implant surgery will be discussed in detail with our oral surgeon prior to the day of your surgery.

To begin your All-On-4® dental implant procedure, we will remove any loose, damaged, or unhealthy teeth. Dr. Pashapour and his surgical team will then place 4 anchorage screws into the gumline and jawbone. These anchor screws will be the secure base for your All-On-4® dental implants and act like the root of your teeth, providing a strong foundation for your dental implants. In some cases, we may suggest All-On-6 dental implants, which are identical to All-On-4® dental implants except that they use 6 anchorage screws instead of 4 for additional support.

What should I expect after my All-On-4 dental implant surgery?

Following the placement of your All-On-4® dental implants, you will receive a set of temporary teeth that will be placed on your anchorage screws while your jaw undergoes osseointegration. Osseointegration occurs when the implants securely bond with your gumline and jawbone, forming a durable foundation for your new teeth. This process may take anywhere from 3-5 months to occur. Once your dental implants have bonded with your jawbone, you will return to our office for a follow-up appointment where the final steps of your procedure will be completed. Dr. Pashapour and his surgical team guarantee the life of your All-On-4® dental implants.
