Losing your teeth can significantly affect your confidence, especially when it comes to smiling or laughing. It’s a common concern, and you’re not alone—many people are negatively affected by tooth loss. You may think traditional dentures are your only option, but there are other ways to restore your smile. If you want to avoid the discomfort and limitations that come with conventional dentures, consider All on 6 dental implants!
All on 6 dental implants offer an effective, long-lasting solution that can transform your smile. This implant denture system could be the investment you’ve been searching for!
What Is All On 6?
If you’ve lost an entire row of teeth, the All on 6 dental implant procedure can help restore your smile! This technique uses six traditional dental implants to support a full arch of replacement teeth for your upper or lower jaw. Depending on your situation, we can place six mini dental implants instead. This system, known as Fix-on-Six®, is ideal for patients who have experienced bone loss in their jaws or those looking for a more efficient, less invasive, and less expensive treatment option.
What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants are metal posts that act as artificial tooth roots, while also replacing one or more missing teeth. Some patients are nervous about dental implants and wonder if the procedure is safe. The great news is dental implants are considered safe for almost everyone—as there is minimal risk involved!
A traditional dental implant is a three-piece system. It consists of a titanium screw that Dr. Bruce Fine securely places into your jaw. He will place an abutment on top of the screw, which acts as a connector for a dental crown, dental bridge, or denture.
However, at Fine Dental Care—a Mini Dental Implant Center of America—Dr. Fine also offers mini dental implants! These innovative one-piece implants are just as strong as traditional implants despite being much slimmer. Dr. Fine can use these mini implants to secure your implant denture, offering new opportunities for patients with bone loss who would otherwise be ineligible for advanced implant solutions.
Advantages of All On 6
There are many benefits to choosing All on 6 dental implants. Instead of dealing with the drawbacks of traditional dentures, All on 6 dental implants allow you to replace an entire row of teeth securely using just six implants. This efficient approach can restore both function and appearance with a much more reliable solution.
All on 6 dental implants look and feel like your natural teeth because of their exceptional stability. They also function similarly to your natural teeth, and they don’t require specialized care or products. Simply maintain your oral hygiene by flossing, brushing daily, and attending your regular dental checkups at Fine Dental Care.
The All on 6 system provides remarkable support, allowing you to chew and enjoy various foods. With your new restoration, you can eat a juicy steak, a crisp apple, or buttery corn-on-the-cob. You can also expect better bone preservation because of the implant body in your jawbone. When you eat, the implants act as artificial tooth roots, transmitting biting and chewing forces throughout the jawbone, maintaining the bone’s structure!
From enhanced chewing ability and bone preservation to improved oral health and easy maintenance, All on 6 is an effective option to transform your smile!
What To Expect Before the Procedure
If necessary, Dr. Fine will perform a tooth extraction to remove any remaining teeth that are decaying prior to the All on 6 procedure.
After Dr. Fine surgically places the titanium screws into your jawbone, he will give you a temporary denture so you can eat and speak without difficulty. In the meantime, your All on 6 dental implants will undergo a period of osseointegration—this is when your implants fuse with your jawbone to create a strong base for your new teeth.
Osteointegration can take anywhere between 3-6 months. Once this process is complete, you’ll be ready for your new permanent teeth.
On the flip side, Fix-on-Six is an excellent alternative if you’re looking for quicker results. Fix-on-Six uses mini dental implants, which are smaller than traditional implants. In this case, osseointegration occurs in a matter of weeks versus months. Dr. Fine can place the implants in your jaw and mount your crown, bridge, or denture in one visit.
