Contact a trusted cosmetic dentist from Dental Arts of New Orleans to find out more about All-on-4 dental implants in New Orleans, LA, and find out if this solution is right for you.

What Are All-on-4 Dental Implants?

Unlike traditional implants, which require a separate implant for each tooth, All-on-4 uses only four implants to replace the bottom or top row of your teeth. Your dentist will carefully study your jawbone and choose the areas with the best bone density to support All-on-4 implants.

All-on-4 does not require any bone grafts. These tooth replacements fuse with the bone to become a part of your jaw (this process is called osseointegration), so you’ll enjoy strong, healthy teeth for many years.

Is All-on-4 the Solution for Your Tooth Loss and Decay?

Tooth decay and loss can affect your life in many ways, such as:

Anxiety and embarrassment in social settings
Trouble speaking clearly
Pain when eating
Sensitivity to hot and cold foods

If you’re experiencing any of these difficulties, All-on-4 implants could be the solution for you! Contact our office to see if you are a good candidate.

Are You a Candidate for All-on-4 Dental Implants?

If you are not eligible for traditional implants because you have been told that your jaw bone is not dense enough, or you have multiple hopeless teeth needing removal, you may still be a candidate for All-on-4 implants. At Dental Arts of New Orleans, we use 3D imaging and highly detailed X-rays to examine your facial structure, check for bone loss, and determine if you qualify for the All-on-4 Dental Implant Prosthesis.

You may also be a candidate for All-on-4 dental implants even in the presence of periodontal disease or tooth decay. Our highly skilled dentists will diagnose and address any dental disease prior to proceeding with the implant process. Additionally, you’ll need a robust immune system for healing and osseointegration to occur successfully.

How Do All-on-4 Dental Implants Work?

The All-on-4 dental implant procedure is a fairly straightforward process with minimal recovery time.

Your dentist takes photos, X-rays and impressions of your mouth and works closely with an oral surgeon to determine the strongest parts of your jaw for the All-on-4 implant prosthesis.
After the initial workup with the dentist, the oral surgeon schedules you for surgery under IV sedation. During surgery, any damaged or decaying teeth are removed.
After removal of hopeless teeth, the oral surgeon places four dental implants into your upper and lower jaw. These dental implants serve as anchors that will support the All-on-4 prosthesis. Usually, the surgical procedure lasts for an hour or two. Afterward, you may experience soreness, swelling, and light bleeding. You may treat these symptoms with over-the-counter pain medication. Contact Dental Arts of New Orleans if symptoms do not subside.
During recovery, avoid eating hard-to-chew foods. Also avoid heavy physical activity for a day or two post-procedure in order to give your mouth proper time to heal.
Care for your new implants by brushing and flossing daily. Continue to see your dentist for regular checkups and professional cleanings to make sure your implants are in good shape.
