What are all-on-4 dental implants, and what are their benefits?
All-on-4 dental implants are considered a specific type of dental prosthetic used to replace a person’s missing teeth completely. This unique procedure involves the placement of four or more dental implants in the jawbone, with an entire arch or set of artificial teeth attached to them. They are sometimes referred to as full arch dental implants, implant-retained dentures, or implant-supported dentures by the team at Westwyn Dental LLC of Berwyn, Illinois. We have placed over 8000 implants which include over 150 fixed hybrid restorations . Westwyn Dental provides the skills and experience you seek. to improve your oral health and return you a fully functioning fixed solution.
What are the benefits of full-mouth dental implants?
Unlike traditional dentures, which are removable and require daily maintenance and cleaning, our all-on-4 dental implants are a permanent option that looks, feels, and even functions just like natural teeth. This makes them a more convenient and comfortable option for those who have lost all or most of their teeth.
In addition to the convenience and comfort, full-mouth dental implants also offer other benefits such as:
- Improved speech. With traditional dentures, people may experience difficulty speaking clearly due to slipping or poor fit. All-on-4 dental implants provide a secure and stable foundation for artificial teeth, allowing for clear and confident speech.
- Enhanced chewing ability. Missing teeth make it more challenging to chew certain foods, impacting a person’s diet and nutrition. With all-on-4 dental implants, eating becomes easier and more enjoyable as the implants function like natural teeth.
- Preservation of jawbone. When teeth are missing from the upper or lower dental arch, the jawbone can start to deteriorate over time. Placing dental implants in the jawbone helps stimulate and preserve the bone, preventing further deterioration.
- Improved facial appearance. Missing teeth often cause a person’s face to appear sunken or aged. Our implant-retained dentures help to support the structure of the face, giving a fuller and more youthful appearance.
- Long-lasting results. With proper care and maintenance by the patient, all-on-4 dental implants can last a lifetime, ensuring they are a cost-effective solution in the long run compared to other options, such as traditional dentures or bridges.
In addition to providing all-on-4 dental implants, Westwyn Dental also offers same-day dental implants, or “teeth in a day,” placing both the implants and the overdenture during the same appointment.
