Avoid Embarrassing Interactions. Get All-On-4® Today
Regardless of how you lost your teeth, living with an entire arch of missing teeth can severely affect your physical and mental health. Without treatment, you’re more susceptible to dental diseases that may require our Rancho Cucamonga, CA, dentist to extract more teeth. It also means that your confidence will diminish, and you’ll start shying away from social interactions.
Dr. Jay Stockdale of Renaissance Dental Care can restore your oral health, and smile, and boost your confidence with All-On-4®. All-on-4 is a fast and permanent solution to your problem, and it acts like your natural teeth, making it the healthiest restoration available. With this treatment, you’ll look and feel your best in no time.
Risks of Untreated Tooth Loss
1
Loss of Functionality
Tooth loss impacts the way you speak and eat. It can cause you to slur your words and make chewing your favorite foods nearly impossible. All-on-4 restores functionality to your smile, meaning you can speak without worry and eat foods like steak and hard fruits without a problem.
2
Increased Risk of Oral Infection
Losing a tooth can cause surrounding teeth to shift and bacteria to accumulate under the gum line, resulting in gum disease and loss of bone and tissue. Dental diseases can be costly to eradicate and can leave permanent damage if left untreated for too long.
Dr. Stockdale can get the health of your smile back on track with cost-effective all-on-4 treatment. It reverses the negative side effects of tooth loss by reinvigorating your jawbone.
3
Weakening of the Jawbone
A tooth root has a vital role in stimulating the jawbone. Tooth loss can cause your jawbone to deteriorate, meaning it will weaken and lose its shape. When this happens, your speech can be affected, and you may appear ill.
All-on-4 implants stimulate the jawbone during your daily activities. With a reinforced jawbone, your smile will retain its shape, and you’ll appear more approachable.
4
Premature Wrinkling
Once the jawbone loses its shape, the skin around it will loosen and sag. This sagging skin can lead to premature wrinkling, making you appear older.
All-on-4 will keep your jawbone healthy, meaning your skin will stay in position and wrinkles won’t develop. This treatment adds aesthetics to your smile, making you look and feel younger than you have in a very long time.
5
Reduced Self-Confidence
Tooth loss can directly impact how you interact with people and how those interactions go. It can affect your love life and friendships and can influence the way you think about yourself. All-on-4 gives you a stunning, complete smile that looks like natural teeth.
6
Increased Likelihood of Pain
When you’re missing teeth, you leave the tooth sockets exposed and open to the will of the elements. This exposure can lead to sensitivity, discomfort, pain, and irritation.
All-on-4 will protect your tooth sockets and prevent any pain or discomfort. Once in place, your permanent dental prosthetic will keep plaque-causing food particles from cultivating, which can help you avoid uncomfortable sensations.
7
Anxiety and Unhappiness
People who smile more appear younger, more approachable, and more positive. But when we’re missing teeth, it can cause the opposite effect.
Living with tooth loss increases the risk of anxiety and depression, but you shouldn’t have to deal with that. All-on-4 is a long-lasting, durable, and genuinely beautiful addition to any smile.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long do All-on-4 implants last?
All-on-4 implants can last for up to 20 years with proper care, biannual checkups, and professional cleaning with your dentist. To ensure their longevity, follow these steps:
- Brush your teeth twice a day with a non-abrasive toothpaste and a soft-bristled toothbrush
- Floss daily
- Rinse your mouth with water after meals
How long does it take to heal after All-on-4 treatment?
On average, traditional dental implants can take around three to four months to heal. With All-on-4, your mouth heals quicker as the implants start fusing to your bone immediately after the procedure. This also means you’ll feel minimal pain and sensitivity. To help minimize the pain you’ll feel during the healing period, take over-the-counter pain medications and use cold compresses.
Will my insurance cover All-on-4 treatment?
Your All-on-4 treatment may be covered by your insurance, but it depends on your plan. Speak to your insurance provider to get a detailed overview of your coverage. You can also ask your dentist if their office provides any in-house financing plans to help cover the expenses of All-on-4.
