Experience the convenience and affordability of dental implants.
All-on-4® dental implants are a new take on oral health and eliminate the need for removable dentures. The All-on-4® dental implant procedure is a cost-efficient, graft- less solution that provides patients with a fixed full-arch bridge (prosthesis). To achieve this, two straight anterior dental implants and two dental implants tilted up to 45º in the posterior of the mouth are drilled directly into the jaw. By tilting the posterior implants into healthy bone, the painful process and the cost of bone grafting is avoided. For patients that meet the criteria for candidacy, All-on-4® dental implants are fully functional immediately after surgery – with some occasional soreness. You’ll notice the difference immediately!
Drink plenty of fluids. Avoid hot liquids or food. Soft food and liquids should be eaten on the day of surgery. Return to a normal diet as soon as possible unless otherwise directed.
You should begin taking pain medication as soon as you feel the local anesthetic wearing off. For moderate pain, one or two Tylenol or Extra Strength Tylenol may be taken. Tylenol may be taken every three to four hours. Ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) may be taken instead of Tylenol. Ibuprofen bought over the counter comes in 200 mg tablets: Two to three tablets may be taken every three to four hours as needed for pain. For severe pain, the prescribed medication should be taken as directed.
Mouth cleanliness is essential to good healing. Clean your mouth thoroughly after each meal beginning the day after surgery. Brush your teeth as best you can. Rinse with warm salt water (one teaspoon of salt in a cup of warm water) six times a day. Continue this procedure until healing is complete.
REMEMBER: A clean wound heals better and faster.
Keep physical activities to a minimum immediately following surgery. If you are considering exercise, throbbing or bleeding may occur. If this occurs, you should discontinue exercising. Be aware that your normal nourishment intake is reduced. Exercise may weaken you. If you get light headed, stop exercising.
