For patients who must replace most or all of their teeth, the cutting-edge All-on-Implants treatment concept offers full arch rehabilitation without requiring individual implants for each tooth. With All-on-Implants, an entire full arch prosthesis can be supported on just 4 implants, which means that restoring both your upper and lower teeth would only require a total of 8. Unlike conventional dentures, the All-on-Implants process ensures that your new teeth are permanently fixed in place, preventing future bone loss in your jaw.

All-on-Implants can be truly transformative, offering the closest approximation to a natural, healthy dental structure. It’s a single-day procedure with a short recovery period, and aside from regular check-ups, the only maintenance necessary is what you would normally do with your natural teeth: regular brushing and flossing.

This treatment is ideal for patients with a diminished jawbone; because the two posterior implants are tilted inward at a 15 to 45 degree angle, there is often no need for bone grafting. While conventional treatment plans such as removable dentures cannot prevent further bone deterioration, this implant process helps maintain jaw health by stimulating the bone and revitalizing bite strength, allowing you to eat your favorite meals with no issue. If you’ve lost most of your teeth or need to have them removed, this cost-effective process may be an ideal choice in revitalizing your dental health and restoring your quality of life.

Replacing a missing tooth as soon as possible is vital in maintaining your overall oral health. Over time, a gap in your smile can cause a series of complications that include shifting teeth, gum recession, and bone loss. There are many ways to address this issue, with the right treatment depending on severity, budget, and a host of other factors. Implants are the closest option to a natural dental structure, but there are certain variations that are important to cover.

Single Implant

Requiring no special maintenance beyond brushing and flossing, a dental implant consists of a titanium post that replaces the natural root. Once the implant is placed in the jawbone, a 3-6 month healing process follows before a crown is made and placed on the implant. Individual implants (i.e. one implant per missing tooth) are ideal when only one or a few teeth are missing. But what happens when most or all teeth must be replaced?

Implant-Retained Denture

A cost-effective solution for patients who must replace a full arch of teeth is the implant-retained denture, which closely mirrors the bite strength of natural teeth. While traditional removable dentures rest on the gums and have a tendency to shift, an implant-retained denture snaps onto titanium implants, offering structural support and helping to curb bone recession. Implant-retained dentures must be periodically removed and cleaned.

All-on-Implants

All-on-Implants is a treatment similar to implant-retained dentures, except for one key difference; they are permanently fixed in place, meaning you can treat them exactly as you would your normal teeth. They also offer the closest approximation to a natural dental structure, which improves quality of life by offering worry-free chewing, speaking, etc. This treatment is ideal for patients who have already experienced jawbone loss; because the two posterior implants are tilted inward at an angle, there is often no need for bone grafting, greatly simplifying the process.
