Social Embarrassment: Avoiding social situations and habitually hiding your teeth.

Restricted Eating Capability: The inability to chomp, chew and bite like normal.
-
Lack of Confidence: Unsightly gaps can negatively impact the way you feel about yourself.
-
Professional Disadvantage: In work settings, you are less likely to speak up and engage, ultimately limiting your ability to contribute & advance in your career.

Bone Deterioration: Missing teeth can lead to jawbone loss, resulting in a "caving in" of your facial appearance.
Reimagine your life
Imagine a life with a smile full of teeth.
How different would you feel?
How much more confident would you be in yourself?
Think about what an amazing advantage that would be - to know you can go anywhere and talk to anyone - without constantly worrying what the other person thinks about your missing teeth.
Imagine that change in your life. Of course, there is tomorrow morning, first thing, when you wake up, look in the mirror, and immediately feel more freedom to talk, to smile, and to laugh with the barista at the coffee shop. Or bite into a tart Grannie Smith apple. Or speak up during an important meeting at work.
In the next month, things start to feel different. Maybe before you felt like part of the background, blending in. But now people seem to see you again, complimenting your appearance and noticing your smile.
And a few months down the road, when these changes are not just showing up in your interactions - they are showing up in your relationships, your personal development and your paycheck.
Now just imagine what difference this confidence can make – how much bigger and better and more impactful your life can be – five years, 10 years, even 20 years down the road.
Introducing: the ALL-ON-4 solution
The All-on-4® solution is a game-changer for implant-supported dentures. This incredible technique is all about giving back the joy of chewing, speaking and smiling to those who have faced major tooth loss. It can often even be completed without complicated oral surgery, like bone grafting.
While the old way of installing implant-supported dentures meant wrestling with six to eight titanium dental implants to prop up a full denture, the All-on-4 approach brings it down to just four implants. And here is the exciting part – two of these implants sit at a 45-degree angle, connecting more firmly with your existing bone structure. The result? Your denture gets a stability upgrade, even if your jawbone has atrophied after losing teeth.
What is even better? The All-on-4 "less is more" philosophy means the implant procedure is quicker, and recovery is like hitting the fast-forward button. Our friendly dentists can give you a temporary denture a mere day after treatment. Imagine that – a brand-new smile in no time!

3 Reasons We Recommend ALL-ON-4
Especially for patients with removable dentures:
Enhanced Stability
Conventional removable dentures cling through natural suction or denture adhesive, yet they often falter in staying put. Enter the All-on-4 implants, securely anchored within your jawbone, ensuring your dentures remain steadfast without the worry of shifting. In a league apart, All-on-4 dentures remain snug in your mouth around the clock, granting you a continuous confident smile – no more taking your smile off each night
Elevated Oral Well-being
In contrast to removable dentures, All-on-4 implants and dentures extend their impact from root to crown. This isn't just cosmetic; it's vital for your oral health. Tooth roots provide the stimulus needed to maintain the health and strength of your jaw. Without this stimulation, the jawbone might diminish over time, inviting issues like premature aging, dental misalignment and further tooth loss. Implants alone can stave off this bone recession, making them your exclusive defense.
Long-Lasting Solution
Ordinarily, removable dentures call for replacement every five to seven years. Our All-on-4 dental implant dentures, however, are fashioned from zirconia – the sturdiest material around – and they hold the potential to last a lifetime, given proper care and regular dental checkups. While the denture might need renewal eventually, the titanium implants beneath can stand the test of time, ensuring a lasting investment in your smile's future.
“I finally got myself back!”
Due to a unique genetic issue called Amelogenesis imperfecta, Justin's teeth were never fully covered by enamel when they came in. This led to rapid wear, decay and ultimately breakdown.
Immediately following treatment, Justin became a whole new person- confident, more connected to his family and others, and more focused on enjoying each and every day.
"I can actually look at myself in the mirror and be proud of who I see. I finally got myself back."

ALL-ON-4 Implant Recovery
Manage Discomfort With Medication
In the days following your implant placement, it is common to experience mild discomfort, swelling and tenderness. Thankfully, these sensations are manageable using readily accessible over-the-counter medication.Many patients are able to resume their regular work routine within just a few days. Astonishingly, patients often report that the surgery induced less discomfort compared to the oral challenges they had been enduring prior to the procedure.
Mindful Dietary Choices
To facilitate a smooth recovery process after your implant surgery, we recommend adhering to a soft-food diet for the initial two weeks. During this period, opting for foods that can be easily cut with a fork is an ideal approach. It is crucial to steer clear of hard or crunchy foods, as they have the potential to interfere with the healing of the dental implant and extend your recovery timeline.
Avoid Tobacco & Alcohol
For optimal recovery and the long-term success of your implants, it is imperative to abstain from tobacco and alcohol during this crucial phase. The substances present in tobacco and alcohol can hinder the healing process by constricting blood vessels and reducing oxygen supply to the surgical site. By avoiding these habits, you significantly mitigate the risk of complications and elevate the chances of a successful implant outcome. Your dedication to a healthy recovery paves the way for lasting benefits.
