Teeth In A Day in Hamilton, ON

WHAT ARE ALL ON 4 DENTAL IMPLANTS?
Teeth In A day, also known as All on Four (or All on 4), is an innovative new technique which allows an entire arch of failing tooth to be replaced with dental implants in one visit. This treatment allows patients to have the luxury of  permanent teeth with just 4 implants per required arch.  The hopeless teeth are removed, implants are placed, and fixed temporary teeth are fitted, all in one visit.

Teeth In A Day is also done for current denture-wearing patients. The temporary fixed teeth allow the patients to be free from their ill-fitting dentures on the day of placement, and after the implants are healed a few months later, a permanent titanium bridge is placed. 

ARE ALL ON 4 COMFORTABLE?
An All-on-4 bridge with dental implants is very comfortable. Unlike dentures which rest on the gums and rub against the bone ridge and cause painful lacerations, the all-on-4 teeth rest solely on the implants and do not touch the gum below. They feel and act just like real teeth and allow you to eat difficult foods which were not impossible with dentures. This includes steak, corn, and biting into fruit with your front teeth without causing other teeth to shift, the typical result in denture wearers.

HOW MUCH ARE ALL ON 4 DENTAL IMPLANTS?
While there is a range of options depending on the type of material the dental bridge is to be made of, the typical all-inclusive cost of one arch (upper or lower jaw), can cost around $20, 000 – $25, 000. This fee incorporates all the Xray fees including 3D CT scans, the cost of the materials including the dental bridge and the implants supporting it, any additional synthetic bone that is to be added, the extraction of teeth and the dental surgery involved, as well as follow up care for up to 5 years and a night guard fabrication.

WHAT ARE THE ADVANTAGES OF THE “TEETH IN A DAY”?

• require fewer implants
• minimal healing
• avoid the need for extensive bone grafting
• less financial cost
• the potential to have fixed teeth in the same day
• predictable aesthetics and extremely high patient satisfaction

For those who suffer from ill-fitting dentures or mobile, failing teeth, the delivery of stable, natural-looking teeth through dental implants can restore that self-confidence and vitality that has often been lost.
