Periodontal and Implant Associates, Inc.

All-on-4 Dental Implants

All-on-4 Dental Implants are state-of-the-art dentures secured and supported by implants that are surgically positioned in your jawbone to eliminate the constant problems of shifting and slipping that frequently come with traditional dentures. This ingenious restorative solution was developed to help you if you are missing teeth and have inadequate jawbone density, which might require a bone graft. Since this solution only requires four implants, unlike a bridge, which can require six to ten implants, the All-on-4 dental implants method provides an effective and successful solution that reduces the total treatment time and the cost involved. Unlike traditional dentures, they provide a permanent solution, which does not need to be removed, and will also feel much more like your natural teeth.

Beginning with your very first visit with Periodontal and Implants Associates, Inc., our entire dental team is committed to establishing a relationship with you, acknowledging your unique individual needs, and striving effortlessly to provide personalized oral health care to meet your goals.

We focus on creating the ultimate stress-free and comfortable dental experience. Your health and comfort are our top priorities, and we will do what is necessary to help you understand your symptoms and your treatment options in a relaxed environment. Call Periodontal and Implant Associates, Inc. at (256) 734-8588 with any questions or to make an appointment for an All-on-4 Dental Implant evaluation.

How All-On-4 Dental Implants Work

Most of your custom personal planning is addressed at your initial evaluation, preparing you for a smooth, efficient procedure. To begin with, Periodontal and Implants Associates, Inc. will generate a Cone Beam CT scan to capture and evaluate in detail all aspects of your jaw, like bone density, mass, integrity, or any bone loss. Next, we determine together the final look of your teeth restoration and any personal needs for your procedure. Following this initial evaluation, a dental lab creates a guided surgical template for us, which then allows your team at Periodontal and Implants Associates, Inc. to place your dental implants precisely in the most advantageous and ideal locations using innovative software. This step also allows the lab to custom design your restoration, which will be placed onto your implants the same day of your implant surgery, and complete your treatment with remarkable efficiency.

At the beginning of your procedure, any unhealthy teeth will be removed. We then surgically place the tiny, titanium All-on-4 dental implants into your jaw. After we have completed this step, we will place your restoration. This preliminary set of teeth is most often temporary and will be worn while you are healing from the implant surgery. Once both your gums and jawbone are healed, your permanent teeth will be placed at a follow-up appointment. The post-procedure healing time is minimal for these All-on-4 dental implants, and you are able to return to work or do your regular activities the next day. For a few months following your procedure, your gums and jawbone will continue to heal and reach the desired osseointegration. This simply means that your jawbone and gums will fuse and bond with your new implants, forming a stable, secure, and healthy integration of your new dental implants into your jaw. Periodontal and Implants Associates, Inc. will schedule a follow-up appointment several months after your surgery to complete your restoration procedure.

All-On-4 Aftercare

Like your original natural teeth, it is essential that you maintain good daily hygiene habits, including regular brushing and flossing. In addition to exercising your daily self-care, the next most important thing you need to do to complement your efforts for your oral health is to schedule regular visits with Periodontal and Implants Associates, Inc. every six months. During these routine checkups, we will monitor your overall oral health and assess how well your All-on-4 implants are doing. We can catch any additional issues before they develop. By maintaining these simple habits, you will prevent additional issues from developing in the future.

Cost of All-on-4

Like many dental procedures, your final cost is determined by a number of personal factors, such as the severity of your case, if any sedation is needed, the total number of appointments, extra lab materials, and what kind of dental insurance plan you have. We will provide you with an accurate estimate once we have completed your 3D CT scan.

Periodontal and Implants Associates, Inc. accepts most dental insurance programs and will help by submitting a pre-treatment estimate to your insurance carrier to determine your benefits. If you are not covered by dental insurance or have other concerns, we are happy to discuss other financial arrangements with you.
