Compare The Perks Of Dentures & All-On-4 Dental Implants
If you’re going to see a dentist for a complex treatment like replacing the majority of or all of your teeth, you want to make the right call the first time. To help you figure out which treatments are best for your particular case, we will happily go over your options with you and answer any questions you have. We won’t confuse you with jargon. Instead, we’ll use approachable language to answer your questions so you can make informed decisions regarding your smile.
No matter which procedure you receive from us, we will do all we can to ensure your restored smile looks beautiful and functions as closely to your natural teeth as possible.
Even if you’ve never had them before, you probably have a general idea of what a set of dentures looks like. There’s good reason that these tooth replacement options are so common. They are tried and true and work for many types of patients. We offer a few varieties at our Florence, SC dentist office, including:
- Fulls
- Partials
- Temporaries
Depending on the type that you get from us, they will likely be held in place by a special denture adhesive and some suction. To help you understand how to care for your denture, we will review hygiene habits and cleaning techniques with you.
Compared to other full-mouth tooth replacements, our traditional denture options offer many advantages. For one thing, they are possibly the most affordable full-mouth restoration available. Plus, the procedure to get a set is minimally invasive. We’ll take precise impressions of the inside of your mouth and then create your false teeth to exact specifications.
If a patient doesn’t want to get a set of traditional false teeth and they have a healthy, strong jawbone, we may recommend All-on-4 dental implants. This option is named for the fact that it can be used to replace a full arch of teeth using just four dental implants.
Granted, we can also provide dental implant dentures, but the All-on-4 method is much more affordable because we’ll only need to place four implants to provide a strong foundation for your replacement teeth. All-on-4 dental implants also offer many other perks for patients because dental implants:
- Help prevent jawbone deterioration, so you can maintain your youthful appearance for years to come and avoid a “sunken in” look
- Look, feel, and work just like your natural teeth
- Do not require any special treatment to be cared for
- Can help you regain the majority of your natural chewing power – as much as 90 percent in some cases
Regardless of which treatment you decide to get to regain your gorgeous grin and your strong bite, we’ll do all we can to ensure fantastic results.
We’ll also do our best to make your experience with us as pleasant as possible. Our professional and caring team will greet you with warm smiles and make you feel heard and valued from the moment you arrive at our Florence, SC dentist office.
If there’s anything we can do to make you feel more comfortable, just let us know. We offer a variety of amenities to help you feel more at ease, including:
- Cold, refreshing bottled water
- Soft blankets
- Cozy pillows
- Earbuds so you can listen to some relaxing tunes
- Complimentary goodies, including toothpaste and lip balm
If we anticipate that you will experience any pain whatsoever during a treatment, we will use an anesthetic to numb your mouth before we begin working on your smile. We can also provide dental sedation options to improve your comfort and help relieve your dental anxiety. This option is especially helpful if you need extensive dental treatment and would like to get it done in as few appointments as possible.
