The first step towards your new smile is an in-depth consultation with Dr. Okhiria. During this meeting, she will evaluate your oral health, discuss your goals and expectations, and determine if you are a suitable candidate for All-on-4 Dental Implants. Using advanced imaging technology, she will then create a precise surgical plan tailored to your unique needs.
On the day of the surgery, Dr. Okhiria will place four dental implants into your jawbone. These implants act as artificial tooth roots, providing a secure foundation for your new teeth. Thanks to her expertise and the use of local anesthesia or sedation, this process is typically painless and comfortable for patients.
Once your implants are in place, Dr. Okhiria will attach a full arch of high-quality prosthetic teeth to the implants. These teeth are custom-made to fit your mouth perfectly and mimic the appearance of natural teeth, ensuring a beautiful and functional result.
All-on-4 Dental Implants provide a significant aesthetic improvement over traditional dentures. They look and feel just like natural teeth, restoring your smile and boosting your self-confidence.
Unlike removable dentures, All-on-4 Dental Implants are fixed in place, eliminating the discomfort and inconvenience of loose or ill-fitting dentures. They allow you to eat, speak, and smile with ease, improving your overall quality of life.
Maintaining good oral health is essential for overall health. Emergency dentistry plays a crucial role in this, by addressing serious issues promptly and effectively, preserving not only the health of the affected tooth or teeth but also the patient's overall oral health.
All-on-Four Dental Implants are a revolutionary solution for individuals who have lost most, if not all, of their teeth. This treatment involves the placement of four dental implants in the upper or lower jaw, which serve as a foundation for a full arch of prosthetic teeth. The All-on-Four technique offers a permanent, secure, and natural-looking solution to tooth loss, which can dramatically improve a patient's quality of life.
If you're missing most or all of your teeth, All-on-Four Dental Implants can provide several benefits. First, they offer a permanent solution to tooth loss, eliminating the need for removable dentures. Second, they look and function just like natural teeth, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile with confidence. Third, they can prevent bone loss in the jaw, which is a common issue for individuals with missing teeth. Finally, the procedure can often be completed in just one day, providing immediate results.
Most adults who have lost most or all of their teeth are good candidates for All-on-Four Dental Implants. However, some conditions may affect your eligibility, such as gum disease, certain medical conditions, and insufficient bone density in the jaw. To determine if you're a good candidate, Dr. Jennifer Okhiria at Buckhead Oral Surgery Suite will conduct a comprehensive evaluation, which may include dental X-rays and a review of your medical history.
The All-on-Four Dental Implants procedure is typically completed in one day under local or general anesthesia. First, Dr. Okhiria will place four dental implants in your jaw. These implants act as artificial tooth roots and are strategically positioned to provide maximum support for the prosthetic teeth. Once the implants are in place, a temporary set of teeth will be attached, allowing you to leave the office with a full set of teeth. After a healing period of about six months, during which the implants fuse with your jawbone, you'll return to the office to have your permanent prosthetic teeth attached.
Caring for All-on-Four Dental Implants is similar to caring for natural teeth. Brush your teeth at least twice a day using a soft-bristled toothbrush and non-abrasive toothpaste, and floss daily to remove plaque buildup. Dr. Jennifer Okhiria may recommend special tools, such as an interdental brush or water flosser, for easier cleaning around the implants. Regular dental check-ups and professional cleanings are essential to maintaining the health of your implants and surrounding gums. Proper care will ensure the longevity and functionality of your All-on-Four Dental Implants.
