You might have heard of “Teeth in a Day”. Many dentists use this term to market hybrid implant dentures/All on 4 in San Mateo and other areas of the U.S.
This refers to the timeline of the treatment. If you have healthy bone available and don’t need grafting, then you could have All on 4 in San Mateo placed in a single procedure. The entire process usually takes longer than a single day, so the term is somewhat misleading. But the truth isn’t too far off…
Most cases proceed as described above, although there can be some minor changes depending on case specifics. If you need bone grafting before having implants, this will add to the overall treatment time. Temporary overdentures are often fitted on the same day as surgery but are sometimes placed the day after.
You’ll be given a complete timeline of hybrid implant dentures treatment when you come for your consultation.
In some cases, All on 4 hybrid implant dentures might not provide the stability needed for long-term success. All on 6 dental implants follow the same concept but use six implants instead of four. All on 6 dental implants are recommended when additional stability is needed to account for bone loss. If you need hybrid implant dentures for the upper jaw, All on 6 dental implants are often recommended because the ridge is much thinner.
With full mouth dental implants and permanent dentures, you can enjoy the full function of your mouth, without the inconvenience of wearing traditional dentures. With just four or six implants, the surgery is less invasive than other implant treatments. Your full mouth dental implants could be maintained for a lifetime, giving you the best solution so you can smile, eat the foods that you love, and enjoy confidence in every aspect of life.
