All on 4
In recent years, state-of-the-art technology has made it possible to replace all of the teeth with placement of only a few dental implants, along with a computer-designed prosthesis. Many names have been made for this procedure, including “all on 4”, “teeth in a day”, and others. In just a few appointments with Dr. Hansen, patients can have a beautiful new smile, and can once again eat the foods they love, for much lower cost than before. Call Desert Valley Oral Surgery today about our competitive pricing for implant-supported hybrid procedures.
With teeth in a day, you are never without teeth.
- Secure Temporary Teeth After One Appointment
The Teeth in a Day procedure allows your dentist to attach temporary teeth at the same time as your implant placement. You wear your temporaries throughout the healing process.
- Easy, Streamlined Care
Everything from extraction to restoration happens in a single day. If your remaining teeth are worn, damaged, or loose, your dentist can remove and replace them with your implant-supported temporaries all in one appointment.
- Shorter, Less Disruptive Recovery Time
With Teeth in a Day, the recovery period is less disruptive than that of traditional implants. You can avoid spending months without teeth waiting for your implants to heal.
Benefits of "All on 4" Or "Teeth-In-A-Day"
Teeth in a Day costs about the same as replacing your teeth with a regular implant-supported denture. The final cost will depend on a couple of factors, including how many implants you need and the quality of your denture. A full implant-supported denture can cost anywhere from $7,000 to $90,000. The average cost is usually about $34,000.
If your dentist performs the All-on-4® technique and uses only four implants to support your denture, your price may fall into the lower end of the range. However, there are a lot of other factors that can impact the final price of Teeth in a Day, including the type of temporary restoration you need.
What to expect.
- Attend a Pre-Procedure Examination
During this appointment, you will meet with your dentist and finalize your treatment plan. They will likely take impressions of your smile to create your temporary restoration.
- Undergo Implant Placement
Your surgeon will embed small titanium dental implants into your jawbone to support your new teeth.
- Receive Your Temporary Teeth
On the same day as your implant placement procedure, your doctor will attach a set of temporary teeth to wear during the healing process.
- Give Your Implants Time to Heal
For most patients, it takes three to six months for dental implants to fuse with the surrounding bone tissue. For the first couple of weeks, you may need to eat a soft food diet.
- Replace Your Temporaries
Once your implants have fully healed, your dentist will replace your temporary teeth with your new permanent smile.
