Frequently Asked Question's

• Can I replace multiple missing teeth with a single solution?

  Yes, dental implants and implant-supported dentures can replace multiple missing teeth using fewer implants to support a fixed bridge or denture.

• What are implant-supported dentures?

  Implant-supported dentures are removable dentures that are secured in place using dental implants, providing better stability and function compared to traditional removable dentures.

• How are implant-supported dentures different from regular dentures?

  Implant-supported dentures attach to dental implants, preventing slipping, shifting, or discomfort that can occur with traditional dentures.

• How many implants are typically used for implant-supported dentures?

  Usually, two to four dental implants are used to support implant dentures, providing sufficient stability for the denture.

• What are All on 4 dentures?

  All on 4 dentures are a dental implant solution that replaces a full arch of missing teeth using four strategically placed implants to support a fixed prosthesis.

• How long does the All on 4 procedure take?

  The procedure involves two main phases: implant placement and attachment of the prosthesis. The entire process can take a few months, including healing time.

• What are zygomatic dental implants?

  Zygomatic dental implants are longer implants that are anchored in the cheekbone (zygomatic bone) to provide support for dental restorations when traditional implants cannot be used due to bone loss.

• When are zygomatic dental implants used?

  Zygomatic implants are typically used when there is significant bone loss in the upper jaw, making it challenging to place traditional implants. They provide an alternative for patients with inadequate bone structure.

• Are All on 4 dentures suitable for everyone?

  Most individuals with missing teeth and good bone density can be candidates for All on 4 dentures. A thorough evaluation by a dentist is necessary to determine eligibility.

• Is the cost of zygomatic dental implants higher than traditional implants?

  Yes, zygomatic dental implants tend to be more expensive due to their complexity and the need for specialized training. The cost will vary based on factors like location and the extent of the procedure
