Is All-on-4 right for me?
At your consultation, the doctor will recommend the dental implant solution that he feels will best address your unique situation. If you want a long-lasting tooth replacement alternative that provides a completely natural look and feel, then All-on-4 may be right for you. Ideally, you’ll have good oral and overall health, as well as the absence of chronic health conditions, such as uncontrolled diabetes, that can delay healing. Your doctor will review your medical and dental history, along with any medications you’re currently taking, and discuss your expectations to determine the optimal solution to restore your smile.

How do dental implants stop jawbone loss?
The chewing forces of natural teeth stimulate the jaw to produce tissue and retain mass, much like weight-bearing excercises stimulate skeletal bone density. But when teeth are missing, the bone loses that stimulation and begins to atrophy. Dental implant posts are inserted into jawbone tissue. The replacement tooth or teeth atop the posts transfer chewing forces to the posts, which encourages bone retention. Discover more exciting benefits of dental implants at your personal consultation.
