How All-On-4 Dental Implants In Charlotte, NC Are Placed

Because everyone’s smile is unique, All-On-4 dental implant procedures can be tailored to meet the specific needs and wants of every patient. The following is what a typical All-On-4 dental implant procedure looks like.

Planning The All-On-4 Dental Implant Procedure Process

The All-On-4 dental implant procedure process begins with a personalized consultation. During the consultation, digital impressions and Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) scans are used to strategically plan out how the All-On-4 dental implants will be made and placed to fit the patient’s specific smile.

The All-On-4 Dental Implant Surgery

On the day of the patient’s customized All-On-4 dental implant surgery, sedation dentistry will be administered to them so that they have a comfortable and anxiety-free surgical experience. Because of the unique protocol of All-On-4 dental implant procedures, those with low jawbone density won’t have to be treated with a bone grafting procedure. The quality doctor can then accurately angle and place the four dental implant posts securely into the patient’s jawbone.

The custom-made surgical guide will be used to predictably place the dental implants, eliminating any uncertainty or danger from the surgery. For those who qualify, a temporary acrylic prosthesis can be attached to the dental implants on the day of their surgery. With the temporary prosthesis, patients will get a beautiful and functional new smile in one day.

Placing The Final Prosthesis

Following a three-to-six-month healing period, the temporary prosthesis can be replaced with a final zirconia prosthesis. The zirconia prosthesis’ color, size, and shape are custom designed to give patients a natural looking new smile. With All-On-4 dental implants, patients will be able to eat the foods they like, speak properly, and smile with ease.
