Secure Your Smile with Functional and Predictable All-on-4 Dental Implants

Tooth loss is a reality we have to face sometimes in life. No matter how you have lost your teeth, tooth loss causes insecurity and discomfort. Fortunately, you don’t have to live with a “gappy” smile. All-on-4 dental implants in the Los Angeles, California, area can replace an arch of missing teeth in the upper, lower, or both jaws. 

Do you have extensive tooth loss, and conventional dentures aren’t as comfortable and stable as you’d like? Welcome to Brentwood Dental Care for all-on-4 dental implants. Also referred to as full-mouth dental implants, all-on-4 implants are stable and realistic-looking like natural teeth.

What are all-on-4 dental implants?

You can restore your smile with traditional dentures when you have lost all or most of your teeth to advanced gum disease, accident, or poor genetics. Conventional dentures replace an entire arch of missing teeth with a set of prosthetic teeth saddled on your gums and secured in place with natural suction and adhesives. This option works until your gums shrink away because of tooth loss. Bone deterioration causes dentures to lose grip and tend to slip as you eat or talk.

All-on-4 dental implants overcome the flaws of traditional dentures by using implants anchored in the jawbone. The dentist restores your smile using just four implants per jaw. Unlike removable dentures, strategic implants provide firm support for your replacement teeth, ensuring they don’t wobble, move, or slip. We use the fewest implants to simplify the procedure and make it affordable.

What can I expect from the all-on-4 dental implant treatment?

Your treatment starts with a consultation to review your medical history, understand your goals, and examine your oral health. Like any successful project, placing full-mouth implants requires precise planning. We use the latest dental imaging tools to plan your treatment, allowing us to visualize your oral structures for optimal implant placement.

After consultation, the dentist may extract failing teeth to prepare for dependable implant-based restorations. In some cases, bone grafting may be necessary for extensive jawbone loss. However, this is rarely the case because we take advantage of the available bone, avoiding the need for bone grafting.

The implant surgery involves placing titanium screws at an optimal position in the jawbone, carefully avoiding interfering with the nearby nerves, sinus walls, and other structures. Dr. Don Mungcal uses precise skills to angle your implants to ensure optimal alignment and stability for your replacement teeth.

After implant surgery, we’ll restore your implants with temporary prosthetic teeth, allowing you to leave our office with a functional smile. Over the next few months, your implants will heal and fuse with the jawbone to form a stable foundation. After full recovery, you’ll return to our office to replace your temporary restoration with a permanent, customized denture, restoring your oral function and aesthetics to near-perfect.

What are the benefits of all-on-4 implants?

All-on-4 implants require only one surgery to replace all your missing teeth. This is convenient and means you never have to live without teeth, even as your gums heal.

The other benefits of all-on-4 implants include:

  • Enhanced self-confidence
  • Optimal stability when using your teeth
  • Stabilizes your facial structures to maintain your youthfulness
  • Long-lasting outcomes
  • More conservative and affordable procedure than conventional implants
  • They are maintained like natural teeth

All-on-4 implants are a permanent solution to missing teeth. Don’t let tooth loss hold you back. Instead, call (310) 444-9900 to schedule an appointment with Brentwood Dental Care for all-on-4 dental implants.
