ALL-ON-4® DENTAL IMPLANTS

All-On-4® dental implants are a long-lasting, minimally invasive method that offers patients a permanent solution for replacing missing teeth. When the majority of the teeth are missing, it can become difficult to perform daily functions such as chewing or talking. All-On-4® dental implants look and act like natural teeth in form and functionality, as they are durable and secure. The advanced techniques used to replace missing teeth with All-On-4® implants eliminate the need for traditional methods of tooth replacement, such as dentures. At Central Park Oral Surgery, Dr. Andrei Mark performs All-On-4® dental implants to provide patients with a more efficient, natural-looking tooth replacement solution.

WHAT ARE ALL-ON-4® DENTAL IMPLANTS?

All-On-4® dental implants are ideal for patients with a majority of teeth missing from the entire upper or lower jaw. All-On-4® implants can also be used to replace damaged, decayed, or broken teeth. Unlike traditional dental implants where each implant uses a screw to secure each tooth in place, All-On-4® dental implants are a fixed prosthetic arch, placed on only four screws to secure the implants and replace multiple missing or damaged teeth at once. All-On-4® dental implants are minimally invasive and can be placed in the same day for a beautifully restored smile.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF ALL-ON-4® DENTAL IMPLANTS?

All-On-4® dental implants repair the look and feel of the smile, leaving patients with a full, natural-looking smile restoration. All-On-4® implants are securely and permanently fastened to the jawbone, which creates a durable and strong bond between the implant prosthetic and jawbone. By utilizing fewer implants to replace the teeth, All-On-4® dental implants are minimally invasive and offer a faster recovery period in comparison to traditional methods and do not require special care. All-On-4® dental implants can be completed in one visit to the office, and patients walk out with a restored smile.

HOW IS ALL-ON-4® DENTAL IMPLANTS PERFORMED?

Details regarding your All-On-4® dental implant surgery in New York City will be discussed in advance prior to the day of your surgery. To perform All-On-4® dental implant surgery, our oral surgeon will extract any damaged or broken teeth to prepare for the placement of your new teeth. The remaining teeth are extracted for the All-On-4® implant to be properly placed. The four anchorage screws will then be inserted into the jawbone in order for your dental implants to be securely fastened. These four implants will act as the new roots of the teeth, holding the All-On-4® implant in place.

Following your All-On-4® dental implant surgery, a temporary set of teeth will be placed on your four new anchorage screws. The temporary teeth will be worn between three to five months while the implant screws are healing and forming a bond to the gumline and jawbone. The healing and bonding process is called osseointegration, and it ensures that a sturdy and permanent foundation is created to secure your All-On-4® dental implants in place. After the osseointegration process is completed and your dental implants have bonded to your jawbone, Dr. Mark will schedule an appointment to remove your temporary teeth and place your new permanent teeth in one office visit.

WHO ARE THE BEST CANDIDATES FOR ALL-ON-4® DENTAL IMPLANTS?

All-On-4® dental implants are ideal for patients who have lost the majority of their teeth from their upper or lower jaw. Patients who have experienced significant tooth loss due to factors such as poor dental hygiene, periodontal disease, age, other dental diseases, and more can benefit from All-On-4® dental implant surgery in order to restore their smile. Ideal candidates for All-On-4® implants also include patients who have received traditional dentures, dental bridges, or individual dental implants in the past. These patients are recommended to switch to a permanent form of tooth replacement, such as All-On-4® dental implants.
