If you have many missing teeth, your smile can feel different. Eating can be hard. Talking may change. All-on-4 dental implants can help.
At Artisan Dental Studio, Dr. Soniya Palan helps people get strong, happy smiles with modern tools and gentle care in San Ramon.
Below, we will explain the All-on-4 dental procedure, so you can understand how it works and if it may be right for you.
What Is All-on-4 Dental Implants?
All-on-4 implants are a way to give you a whole row of teeth using just four implants. The implants are small posts put into your jaw. They act like tooth roots.
A complete set of new teeth is fixed to these posts. You get a set of teeth that look like real teeth. They help you eat, speak, and smile with confidence.
Who Can Choose All-On-4?
People who:
- Have many missing teeth
- Are tired of loose dentures
- Want a stronger and more stable set of teeth
A dentist will check your mouth and bone. Not everyone can get the same plan. Artisan Dental Studio makes a plan that fits your needs.
How the All-On-4 Process Works
The process happens in steps. Knowing the steps can help you feel calm and prepared.
- Visit and Talk. First, you meet the dentist. Your mouth is checked. Scans and X-rays are taken. You talk about your goals and concerns.
- Plan Your Treatment. The dentist plans where each implant should go. Careful planning helps make the implants strong and safe.
- Surgery Day. The dentist places all-on-four implants in the jaw. In many cases, a new set of teeth is given the same day. This means you can leave with teeth that look good and work.
- Healing Time. The jaw needs time to heal and to hold the implants strongly. You may come back for a few checkups.
- Final Teeth. After healing, the final, strongest teeth are attached. These feel and work like natural teeth.
We put you first at Artisan Dental Studio. Our team is kind and explains things in plain words. If you worry about pain or the process, we will walk with you every step.
Why All-On-4 Is a Good Choice
- Fewer implants: Only four implants are used per arch. That can mean less surgery and faster results.
- Strong and steady: The implants hold the teeth firmly in place. They do not slip like some dentures.
- Fast improvement: You can get a working set of teeth quickly. Some people get temporary teeth the same day.
- Easy care: You brush and floss these teeth like natural teeth. They are not taken out every day like some dentures.
What to Expect After All-on-4 Dental Implant Surgery
You may have some swelling or mild pain. This is normal and will ease in a few days.
At Artisan Dental Studio, we give clear instructions to keep your mouth clean. We schedule follow-up visits.
During healing, stick to soft foods at first. Over time, you can eat more kinds of food as your jaw gets stronger.
Caring for Your New Teeth
- Brush and clean around the implants every day.
- Use the tools your dentist suggests for cleaning.
- Visit the dentist for checkups.
- Eat soft foods first, then move to regular foods as you heal.
- Tell the dentist if something hurts or feels wrong.
Good care helps your All-on-4 implants last longer.
