In the past, most people with extensive tooth loss were forced to wear dentures. Fortunately, your periodontist in Winchester, VA may be able to offer you a better solution. All-on-4 dental implants are a minimally invasive option for permanently replacing multiple teeth.  Want to learn more? Here are four things to love about this emerging technique.

  1. Replace a Full Arch With Four Implants

If you need to replace all the teeth on one of your arches, then you may think that dental implants are out of the question. However, the beauty of all-on-4 implants is that just four implant sites support a full row of teeth. Now you can enjoy the perks of dental implants without getting an implant for each tooth.

  1. Enjoy Full Function

Traditional dentures can be damaged or displaced by certain foods and facial manipulations, so people who have them must be careful about what they eat and how they speak. All-on-4 implants are inserted directly into the jaw, so they function almost exactly like real teeth. This gives you the peace of mind to eat and say what you want while feeling confident about your smile.

  1. Recover Quickly

Many people who receive all-on-4 implants at Shenandoah Valley Implant Institute enjoy minimal pain and fast recovery times. In some cases, treatment can be completed in as little as one day.

  1. Get Lasting Performance

Dental implants not only improve daily function, but they also provide lasting oral health support. The titanium screws reinforce the structure of the jawbone around the implant site. This strengthens the mouth and prevents future bone loss from occurring. Furthermore, your implants should last you for the rest of your life if you take proper care of them.

Shenandoah Valley Implant Institute offers a variety of treatment options for lasting relief. To find out if you are a good candidate for all-on-4 dental implants, contact our practice to schedule an appointment.
