Tooth loss is a widespread dental problem that affects millions of Canadians. If left unaddressed, tooth loss can adversely affect various aspects of your well-being, including your ability to chew and speak correctly, your appearance and even your self-confidence.
We understand the thought of going through extensive teeth replacement procedures can deter you from seeking treatment. Fortunately, advancements in dental restoration technology have made it possible for you to safely and conveniently replace your teeth.
In particular, All-On-4 dental implants treatment allows you to replace an entire arch of teeth within a single appointment. This treatment is safe, minimally invasive and highly convenient for individuals experiencing total tooth loss.
Summerland Dental Centre is proud to be offering All-On-4 Dental Implants in Summerland, BC.
What to Expect
To understand what All-On-4 treatment is all about, it’s important to first appreciate what a dental implant is and how it works. An implant is a small titanium post or screw that acts as a tooth root. Tooth implants provide excellent stability and support for dental restorations such as crowns, bridges and dentures.
If you’ve lost all your teeth, it might feel impractical, expensive and even incredibly cumbersome to replace every lost tooth with an implant. That’s where All-On-4 dental implants near you come in.
Our dentists in Summerland, BC, place four implants at strategic points of your dental arch. These implants are used to support an entire arch of replacement teeth. Temporary replacement teeth are used to restore your smile right away. After complete healing, our dentists place the permanent replacement teeth, giving you a second chance at a beautiful, healthy smile.
