Living with missing teeth can impact your confidence, your diet, and your overall quality of life. Fortunately, modern dentistry offers advanced solutions that can completely restore your smile and your ability to chew comfortably.
Are you tired of dealing with loose dentures or missing teeth? An advanced solution available at Greder Dental is state-of-the-art is dental implants — a permanent solution for missing teeth.
Dr. Jennifer J. Greder, DDS, helps patients who are missing most or all of the teeth regain their confidence with the All-on-4® dental implant system. Here’s what you need to know.
This innovative procedure replaces an entire arch — the full curve of your teeth in your upper or lower jaw — using only four strategically placed titanium posts. These posts act as artificial tooth roots, providing a secure foundation for a custom-made set of permanent artificial teeth.
Complete tooth loss is a widespread issue, affecting an estimated 23% of adults age 60 and older globally, according to the World Health Organization. The All-on-4 method offers a reliable, long-term alternative to traditional dentures for patients who’ve experienced severe tooth loss.
Removable dentures are a common, practical solution when you’re missing all of your teeth. However, many patients complain that they slip or click when you speak.
The All-on-4 implant-supported system stays firmly in place. You can eat your favorite foods, speak clearly, and smile without worrying about your teeth shifting.
These modern implant-supported appliances achieve an impressive 90% to 95% clinical success rate by successfully fusing with the jawbone. This fusion helps preserve your jawbone structure and prevents the facial sagging often associated with tooth loss.
Your dental implant journey begins with a comprehensive consultation where our team evaluates your oral health and takes detailed digital scans of your jaw. If you have any remaining teeth, we carefully extract them to accommodate your new set of prosthetic teeth.
Dr. Greder carefully plans the precise placement of the four implants to maximize support and stability. Another advantage of All-on-4 is that the angle and depth of the implant posts means you don’t need a bone graft to ensure your jawbone can support them.
Once the implants are in place, we attach a temporary set of teeth so you can leave our office with a functional smile while your jaw heals. After your implants fully fuse with the bone, we secure your new beautiful, custom-made permanent prosthetic teeth.
You don't have to let missing teeth affect your quality of life. Our team specializes in restorative dentistry, and we’re here to guide you through every step of the process without judgement.
