One of the primary differences between traditional dentures and All-on-4 is that traditional dentures are typically removable. In contrast, All-on-4® dentures rely on four carefully placed dental implants to keep them securely in place.
Understanding All-on-4 Implants in Westfield
With an all-on-4 procedure, our dentists use four strategically placed implants to support a custom-designed upper or lower denture. They design your denture to "snap" into the implants, so it doesn't need to be removed for cleaning at night, and there's no movement or slippage when you talk or eat.
Dental implants also provide additional health benefits for denture wearers. Dental implants keep your jawbone healthy and stimulated, so you avoid the natural deterioration that occurs with traditional denture wear. This also means better longevity for your denture.
Today's dentures are thoughtfully designed. Our dentists use your facial structure and skin tone to build and shade your denture so it complements your smile. These are not the dentures that your parents or grandparents wore!
