All-on-4 Implants

Benefits of Full Mouth Dental Implants

Restored Chewing Function and Speech: Missing teeth can make eating your favorite foods a challenge and even affect your ability to speak clearly. Full-mouth dental implants provide a stable and reliable chewing surface, allowing you to enjoy a varied diet and speak with ease.

Improved Appearance and Confidence: Full-mouth dental implants not only replace missing teeth but also restore the natural contours of your face, preventing the sunken look often associated with tooth loss. This aesthetic enhancement can boost your self-esteem and confidence, allowing you to smile with pride.

Enhanced Oral Health and Prevention of Bone Loss: Dental implants mimic the function of natural tooth roots, stimulating the jawbone to maintain its density and prevent bone loss, which can occur when teeth are missing. 

Convenient Maintenance and Care: Caring for implant-supported dentures is as simple as caring for natural teeth. Regular brushing, flossing, and routine dental check-ups are all that are required to keep your new smile in top shape without the need for special adhesives or removal.

Cost-Effectiveness Compared to Alternatives: While there are various options for replacing missing teeth, full-mouth dental implants offer a cost-effective, long-term solution. With their durability and the reduced need for future replacements or adjustments, they can be a wise investment in your oral health and overall quality of life.

The All-on-4 Dental Implant Process

Consultation and Treatment Planning

The All-on-4 process begins with a comprehensive consultation where we’ll discuss your oral health history, evaluate your current dental condition, and determine if All-on-4 implants are the right choice for you. We will work closely with you to develop a personalized treatment plan that aligns with your unique needs and goals.

Tooth Removal and Implant Placement

On the day of your procedure, Dr. Murphey will carefully remove any remaining damaged or compromised teeth in the designated dental arch. This step is essential to create a clean and healthy foundation for your new smile. Next, the All-on-4 implants will be strategically placed into your jawbone.

Temporary Prosthetics

Following implant placement, temporary prosthetics will be attached to the implants. These temporary teeth will enable you to resume essential functions like eating and speaking while your implants gradually integrate with your jawbone.

Final Prosthetic Placement

Once your implants have fully integrated and your oral health has stabilized, typically within a few months, we will replace your temporary prosthetics with your final, custom-crafted set of All-on-4 replacement teeth. These final prosthetics will be designed to match the aesthetics and functionality of natural teeth, giving you a stunning and functional smile that can last for many years with proper care.

How Long Do Whole Mouth Implants Last?

With proper care and maintenance, All-on-4 implants can endure for many years and even a lifetime. However, several factors can influence the lifespan of All-on-4 implants. Maintaining good oral hygiene practices, including regular brushing, flossing, and professional dental care, is essential for implant longevity.
