Question
Answer Header & Date
Answer Snippet
Can I get All-on-4 Dental Implants?
All on 4(TM)
Feb 19, 2017
If the prognosis of the teeth is poor, you would certainly be a candidate for dental Implants. a 3D scan would need to be taken. Since you have bone loss I anticipate this will be a challenging situation. make sure you seek out the appropriate clinicians in your area that have the experience to address something like this

Dentures at the age of 28, absolutely not, we have technology today where we can avoid that.

The success of the procedure also depends on you and how your body responds…

I have a metal plate in my bottom jaw. Would I be a candidate for implants?
metal plate
Feb 19, 2017
Hello
A 3D scan would need to be taken. Most often plates are placed because of a fractured jawbone .
Having a plate is not a contra-indication it just means the surgeon has to plan a path that will avoid the plate.
Wishing you all the best

I have new upper and lower dentures put in weeks ago.
existing dentures

If you are satisfied with you existing dentures and they meet all the criteria then yes these dentures can be used with your implants as a temporary prosthesis. Once the implants have healed new teeth will need to be made
Best of luck
Problems with All on 4 method. Any suggestions?
slippage of denture
Jan 22, 2017
It does not appear that you have a secure All on 4(tm) type prosthesis. What you may have is a snap on denture
An allon4(tm) type prosthesis does not move is rigid and very comfortable
I would suggest you touch base with your dentist to remedy the problem

Best of luck

ALL ON 4, who’s an ideal candidate?
candidiate
Jan 22, 2017
Thank you for your inquiry.
The All on 4(TM) process bypasses the bone grafting procedure altogether
I have rarely come across anyone who is not a candidate

These are the things we look for

1. Good health
2. Able to undergo surgery
3. Adequate bone
4. Patient understands the process

Dental – All on 4 implants – existing implants?
implants ALLON4
Dec 18, 2016
It really depends on how the implants have been placed. The All on 4 (TM) requires a certain configuration of implant placement.

Inquire with your dentist i am certain they will be able to help you

Best of luck

How long does an All-on-4 denture implant last, in years?
last
Dec 18, 2016
How long it lasts depends on a number of things

1. Cleaning and looking after them

2. If you wear a night guard – inevitably you will put more force on your teeth

3. Material used to fabricate the teeth – Zirconia is the strongest and may last longer

You should be prepared for some complications of a period of time such as teeth chipping and breakage. The restoration will be designed to be retrievable so these problems can readily be fixed.

Unfortunately nothing a dentist will do…
