What Are All-on-4 Dental Implants?

All-on-4 dental implants, manufactured by Nobel Biocare™, are a revolutionary method to secure a full-arch restoration. This process works by placing the screws (implants) into four spots on the upper and/or lower arch. In contrast to other options, All-on-4 utilizes fewer implants to get a more secure hold. Our team suggests All-on-4 implants for patients who are wanting a fully restored smile without the hassle and diet limitations of removable dentures. Many Rockville, MD and Washington, D.C. patients have enjoyed the results of the groundbreaking All-on-4 procedure. If you are interested in finding out more information on All-on-4 dental implants and custom full-arch restorations, we welcome you to schedule a consultation at Dlight Dental.

Am I a Candidate for All-on-4 Dental Implants?

The All-on-4 dental implant procedure is an innovative solution for individuals seeking full arch tooth replacement. Generally speaking, ideal candidates for All-on-4 implants have multiple missing or failing teeth - including a full top or bottom arch - and want a stable, fixed solution without removable dentures. Good candidates typically have adequate jawbone density to support the implants, although bone grafting may be an option if bone volume is insufficient. This treatment can benefit those with dental issues due to decay, trauma, or gum disease. Ideal candidates are in good overall health and committed to maintaining oral hygiene. To determine with certainty whether you are a suitable candidate for dental implants, don't hesitate to schedule an appointment with one of our knowledgeable providers.

What Can I Expect from All-on-4 Dental Implants?

For the first step in the All-on-4 process, our board-certified specialist will take digital or physical impressions and x-rays of your teeth. Then, we will create your personal treatment plan and go over your choices for sedation. During your first appointment, the dental implants will be placed in your top or bottom arch. A board-certified specialist from our team will put a temporary denture over the implants as your mouth heals and your custom full-arch restoration is being crafted. In a few months, you will be asked to come back to Dlight Dental to get your custom-made dental restoration placed and possibly adjusted for a more comfortable fit.

What Is Recovery Like from All-On-4 Dental Implants?

You may experience some discomfort and pain in your gums following implant surgery. During the time you're wearing your temporary dentures, there'll be some diet limitations and cleaning instructions to follow. You will also schedule regular follow-ups during the healing period so our team can check your progress and make sure the implants are integrating into your jawbone and gums as they should. Once your custom dentures have been set, you should clean them just like natural teeth with daily flossing and brushing. You should still go to Dlight Dental for yearly examinations and bi-annual cleanings to maintain your dentures and so our staff can monitor the health of your mouth.

This practice is extremely good. The periodontist was very informative about the work she was doing, and the upcoming dental work that needs to be completed. The front desk staff, as well as the individual handling the finances, are courteous, knowledgeable and informative. I am appreciative that I found this practice.

By far the best dental experience I have ever had. I had a lot of work done here - extraction, implant, cleaning, fillings etc. and for someone who is usually afraid of the dentist they made me comfortable throughout the year. I recommended this place to a close friend and he had the same experience. I had to move out of state otherwise this would be my dental office for life. I’m very lucky to have come across the people at this office. If I could give this place 100 stars I would.
