All-On-4 Dental Implants in Brisbane

Showing patient implant model Teeth function degeneration is common among older people. As time passes, their teeth may not work as they used to, giving them trouble with chewing food. Even if you aren’t old, disease and accidents can easily cause you to lose your teeth. In such cases, your ability to eat certain foods is impacted, and your self-esteem also takes a hit. Your teeth aren’t just there for functional purposes; they also help you express emotions, like showing off a beautiful smile.

What Are All-On-4 Implants?

Our Brisbane dentists place four (or sometimes six if all-on-six) implants in the arch of your mouth. They put these implants at an angle to maximise the support from the patient’s bones. Even patients with osteoporosis whose bones are compromised can get implants.

Care begins with two implants on the front and two in the back. Afterwards, they will attach a permanent denture. This procedure is not as invasive as traditional implants, where a dentist may insert up to ten implants per jaw. Furthermore, the entire process takes just one day, saving you from repeated discomfort.

Benefits of All-On-4 Teeth Implants

All-On-4 has been catching on as a popular technique because of its quick recovery time and less-invasive nature. The procedure will afford you certain benefits, as explained below.

Cleaning and Maintenance

After the surgery, cleaning your teeth will not be difficult at all. At first, you have to rinse your teeth with saltwater or mouthwash. After the recovery period, you need to take the same care of your implants that you would with your natural teeth. You will also have to visit your dentist for regular cleanings. If there are any specific hygiene instructions, your dentist will go over them with you.

Quick Recovery Time

One of the best things about All-On-4 is the short recovery time. The implants will fuse with your jawbone much faster than traditional solutions. You only need to avoid eatinf hard food for few weeks. The rule is any food than can be cut with butter knofe is ok to bite onto and chew for the first 5 weeks.

Available for Patients With Unhealthy Jawbones

Patients with deteriorated jawbones can’t get traditional implants. This group includes patients with osteoporosis as well. Traditional implants require healthy bone to support the numerous screws. For this purpose, dentists often resorted to bone grafts. All-On-4 has eliminated the need for most bone grafts. During this procedure, dentists insert angled implants into areas with suitable bone density. Thus, they get enough support from the healthy bone tissue without the need for additional grafts in most cases.

High Success Rate

Dental implants can act like natural teeth allowing patients to lead a quality life. As long as you take proper care, the implants should last you quite a while. All-On-4 has a success rate of 99.8%, according to studies between 2005 and 2016.

Less Invasive

The All-On-4 procedure is less invasive than traditional implants. The process only uses four implants without any additional grafts. Hence, your dentist can complete the entire process in a single day. Due to its less invasive nature, dentists prefer this method. Moreover, the recovery time is also quicker.
