If your smile has gaps where your teeth used to be, you’re probably ashamed to go out in public or socialize with friends. The truth is that missing teeth affect more than oral health; they negatively impact your self-confidence and quality of life.
That’s why replacing your missing teeth is a fantastic way to restore your smile’s beauty and functionality. At Surf City Dental, we offer All-on-4® dental implants and implant-retained dentures to help you regain your smile and zest for life.
All-on-4 Dental Implants: The Gold Standard of Tooth Replacement
With all-on-4 dental implants, we can replace a full arch of teeth by placing four dental implants and then attaching a beautiful full set of teeth. Restoring your smile involves the following steps:
- Once your consultation is complete, we use advanced imaging to plan your treatment.
- Next, we place four titanium posts into your jawbone; these implants act as the foundation for your new teeth.
- While your mouth heals, you’ll wear a temporary denture, so you’ll never be without a complete set of teeth.
- The final step involves placing your custom-made, permanent teeth and restoring your smile’s functionality and beauty.
Implant-Retained Dentures: A Popular Option
You may think dentures aren’t a good way to replace a full arch of missing teeth, but implant-retained dentures combine the stability of dental implants with the natural look of custom dentures.
We precisely place several dental implants into your jaw and attach an entire upper or lower set of teeth, restoring your smile. Implant-retained dentures provide a more secure fit than traditional dentures. This means you won’t have to worry about them slipping or moving around when you eat, drink, or talk.
With dental implants to secure your dentures, you won't risk jawbone deterioration. That means your face won’t sag or look sunken and older.
Also, depending on your treatment plan, implant-retained dentures may be more affordable than you think.
