All-on-4 Implants at Tempe Smiles
What Are All-on-4 Dental Implants?
If you are missing teeth in your smile, dental implants may be the solution you need. Implants can serve as a replacement for your natural teeth if you have lost teeth due to periodontal disease or an accident. In more extreme cases, patients may be missing a row of teeth. In cases like this, it is not necessary to have individual implants. Teeth can be replaced using All-on-4 dental implants in a minimally invasive procedure. The skilled dentists at Tempe Smiles can help restore your smile and function with All-on-4 implants.

The All-on-4 Dental Implants Procedure
The All-on-4 dental implants procedure is slightly different from typical implants. Normal dental implants are designed to replace one tooth at a time. The implant is anchored to the jawbone and the exposed portion of the new “tooth” serves as the implant. With All-on-4 implants, the exposed part of the tooth is replaced with a special cap that connects to the jawbone with a mirroring receptacle under the cap. This provides a tight connection between the jaw and the implants, making all-on-4 implants more secure for biting, chewing, and talking. Anchors from the implants are strategically placed to allow for maximum stability due to the angle of the anchors and the contact with the jawbone. Since All-on-4 implants replace a section of multiple teeth in a more permanent manner than dentures, they are sometimes referred to as “implant supported dentures.”

How to Clean All-on-4 Dental Implants
Proper oral health care is as important with dental implants as it is with natural teeth. Keeping surfaces clean is easy with implants and does not require much in the way of special care. When brushing, typical recommended practices such as the use of soft bristles and circular motions is standard, yet there are some types of oral health products that may not be best for implants. Tempe Smiles can advise you on which types of toothpaste, floss, and oral rinses would be best suited for your implants. Regular dental visits should be maintained in order to get the specialized care that a dentist can provide. In addition, healthy habits such as proper diet and avoiding smoking or tobacco can contribute to your overall oral health and well-being.
