Transform Your Smile, Your Life!
Imagine walking into a dental implant office in the morning with missing or damaged teeth and leaving later in the day with a brand-new, fully functional set of teeth. It sounds like a dream, but it’s a reality that countless individuals have experienced, thanks to the cutting-edge, all-on-four dental implant procedure.
What is All on Four?
All-on-4, also known as “same-day dental implants,” is a remarkable dental procedure that allows patients to receive a complete set of fixed, non-removable teeth in just one day. The technique involves strategically placing dental implants and attaching a customized set of prosthetic teeth, all within a single appointment.
Not so long ago, the dream of a new smile in a day was achieved via traditional, removable dentures.
It all starts with a comprehensive evaluation evaluation at The Mugford Center. Dr. David Mugford and his expert team assess the patient’s oral health, bone structure, and overall dental condition to determine candidacy for teeth-in-a-day. Once deemed eligible, a personalized treatment plan is crafted. This plan includes the number and placement of dental implants, as well as the design of the prosthetic teeth.
Each patient is different, and their dental needs vary. The All-on-4 treatment plan is customized based on the individual’s specific requirements. Factors such as the number of missing or damaged teeth, bone structure, and overall oral health are taken into account. The goal is to design a plan that maximizes the success of the procedure and meets the patient’s aesthetic and functional expectations.
The Implant Procedure
On the day of the procedure, the patient is comfortably seated, and local anesthesia is administered to ensure a pain-free experience. The strategic placement of four dental implants per arch is a hallmark of the All-on-4 technique. The precise positioning of these implants provides optimal support for the prosthetic teeth while minimizing the need for bone grafting, even in cases of reduced bone density.
Following implant placement, a set of customized prosthetic teeth is securely attached to the implants. These prosthetics are carefully designed to mimic the look and function of natural teeth.
Unlike traditional implant procedures that involve a waiting period for osseointegration (the process of the implant fusing with the jawbone), the All-on-4 procedure allows for immediate loading. This means that, on the same day as implant placement, a temporary set of prosthetic teeth is attached. Patients leave the office with a functional set of teeth, experiencing an immediate transformation.
Immediate Results
The beauty of the All-on-Four treatment lies in its immediate results. Patients leave The Mugford Center with a fully restored smile, enjoying newfound confidence and the ability to eat and speak comfortably.
Traditional implant procedures can take months to complete, involving multiple appointments. Teeth-in-a-Day condenses the process into a single day, providing a quick and efficient solution for those seeking immediate results with minimized discomfort. With fewer implants needed and a simplified process, patients experience nominal discomfort compared to traditional implant procedures. Many individuals find they can return to their normal activities within a short timeframe.
Beyond the aesthetic benefits, the all-on-four procedure significantly enhances the quality of life for individuals with missing or damaged teeth. The newfound ability to eat, speak, and smile without hesitation can be truly transformative.
The All-on-4 procedure is known for its high success rates and long-term stability. With proper oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups, patients can enjoy their new smile for years to come. The innovative design of the implants and prosthetics ensures durability and functionality, giving individuals the confidence to eat, speak, and smile with ease.
