How All-on-4 works

The All-on-4 dental implant is an innovative full-arch tooth replacement method, using four or more implants to support a full arch of teeth. This procedure involves several steps:

  1. Assessment and planning: A detailed dental exam, including 3D imaging, evaluates bone density and oral health to tailor the treatment plan.
  2. Strategic implant placement: Implants are placed at specific angles in high bone density areas, enhancing support and stability for the prosthetic teeth without needing bone grafts, even in patients with lower bone density.
  3. Immediate load implants: A temporary, fixed dental prosthesis is placed immediately after surgery, providing patients with functional teeth the same day.
  4. Osseointegration: The implants integrate with the jawbone over months, creating a strong foundation for the new teeth.
  5. Final prosthesis: A custom, permanent prosthesis replaces the temporary one after osseointegration, offering a natural appearance and fit.

Healing and Recovery

The healing period following your All-on-X implant dentures procedure serves as a trial for your new teeth. On the procedure day, you’ll instantly switch from old or missing teeth to a temporary, near-final smile.

Recovery timeline: Most patients fully recover within 6 to 8 months, though individual healing times may vary.

What to expect during recovery: Expect a swift return to daily life with minimal discomfort. Key actions for a swift recovery are:

  • Regular water flossing
  • Denture brushing

Osseointegration Phase: During this crucial 4 to 6-month period, your bone fuses with the biocompatible titanium implants, securing them firmly in your jawbone to provide a stable base for your new teeth. This phase allows you to evaluate and adjust the appearance and fit, ensuring your final teeth are exactly as you wish.

Frequently asked questions about All-on-X implant dentures

How long does the All-on-4 dental implant procedure take?

K
L

The timeline varies, but our advanced techniques often allow for a quicker process compared to traditional methods.

Are all-on-X implant dentures suitable for me if I have some remaining teeth?

K
L

Yes, All-on-4 can be customized to address varying degrees of tooth loss. Dr. Torres will assess your unique situation during the consultation.

What is the recovery like after All-on-4 dental implants?

K
L

Most patients experience minimal downtime. Discomfort is manageable with prescribed medications.

I’ve been told I’m going to lose all my teeth. What happens next?

K
L
Once we decide on a treatment plan, we’ll start by collecting records: photos, a digital scan, 3D radiographs, and choosing the denture color. Our goal is to design a natural-looking smile. After the records appointment, the information goes to a dental lab to create the temporary teeth for surgery day.

How painful is the surgery? Will I need time off work?

K
L
Recovery is smoother than expected. Peak swelling occurs 3-5 days post-op, with some tenderness, possible bruising, and swelling. Most patients return to work after a few days of rest.

Will I be able to eat normally after surgery?

K
L
Initially, you'll need a liquid-only diet (e.g., protein shakes, broth, milkshakes, tea, frozen yogurt, ice cream, coconut water, cream soups). Once cleared, you can eat soft foods like steamed veggies, mashed potatoes, oatmeal, soft bread, eggs, cheese, and bananas. After about four months, you can resume a normal diet, enjoying foods like corn on the cob, ribs, steaks, nuts, and crackers.

How much does the All-On-X procedure cost?

K
L
Costs vary based on materials, the number of implants, and hardware. Schedule a consultation with Dr. Torres to determine the best plan for your needs and budget.

Do I still need cleanings and exams without natural teeth?

K
L
Yes, routine maintenance is crucial. Implants can fail due to poor care, smoking, and lack of hygiene. Your hygienist has special tools to clean around implants. Regular cleanings every 3-6 months and annual panoramic x-rays are essential.

How long do implant dentures last?

K
L

With proper care, implants can last over 20 years. The prosthesis itself can last around 10 years. Maintain good home care, routine visits, and avoid using teeth for non-food items.

What happens if an implant fails?

K
L
Implants aren’t permanent. All-on-X means at least four implants support a denture. Dr. Torres often adds extra implants for a more stable and predictable outcome, ensuring the prosthesis remains stable if one fails.

Can implants be added to existing dentures?

K
L
It depends on bone availability. A CBCT scan will determine if there's enough bone for implants. Bone levels can drop over time without teeth, but sometimes grafting can help.

What are the cons of All-on-X implant dentures?

K
L

Adequate bone is needed for implants. If bone is insufficient, grafting may be necessary, which adds to the cost. The overall cost of All-on-X is a significant investment.

How experienced is Dr. Torres with All-on-X procedures?

K
L
Dr. Torres has extensive experience with implants and all-on-X implant denture cases. While seeing an oral surgeon is an option, Dr. Torres can perform the entire treatment in one office, ensuring a seamless and comprehensive care experience.
