Fixed Teeth On The Day of Your Procedure
If you’re dealing with failing teeth, struggling with dentures that slip, or feel embarrassed by missing teeth, you deserve a permanent, fixed solution that feels and functions just like your natural smile. All-on-4 dental implants are the premier way to replace an entire arch of teeth with a full, beautiful, and secure set of teeth.
This is not a temporary fix; it’s a completely new, stable foundation for your smile. We understand this is a life-changing decision, and that’s why our expert team, led by Dr. Christine Hopkins, designs every detail of your restoration. The ultimate benefit is freedom; the freedom to eat what you want, speak clearly, and smile without reservation.
The All-on-4 Advantage
All-on-4 is an innovative approach where we anchor a full arch of permanent replacement teeth using only four strategically placed dental implants. The implants are often placed at an angle to leverage the strongest available jawbone, which frequently allows us to avoid the need for extensive bone grafting.
Dr. Hopkins’ specialized training as a Prosthodontist means she approaches your All-on-4 case with an expert understanding of aesthetics, function, and long-term durability. Unlike traditional dentures that only offer limited biting power and often move, your All-on-4 prosthetic is:
- Fixed and Secure: You can eat crunchy foods and laugh with confidence, your teeth will not slip.
- Natural-Looking: Designed with lifelike materials that blend seamlessly with your facial features.
Precision Planning For A Predictable Outcome
When you choose a specialist for your full-arch solution, you benefit from a methodology focused on precision. This precision comes from two vital sources: Dr. Hopkins’ advanced prosthodontic training in complex restoration, and the cutting-edge digital technology we use to execute it. We ensure a smooth, predictable journey to your new smile through these four steps:
Advanced Digital Planning: We use 3D Cone Beam (CBCT) technology to create a detailed, three-dimensional image of your jawbone and structures. This allows us to plan the exact, optimal placement of your four implants before surgery begins.
A Relaxed Procedure: For a completely stress-free experience, we offer Nitrous Oxide sedation during the procedure to ensure you are comfortable throughout.
Placing the Roots & Immediate Teeth: On the day of your procedure, Dr. Hopkins places the four implants, the “roots” that will anchor your smile. You will leave our office that same day with a high-quality provisional set of fixed teeth. This gives you a full, functional smile immediately while your implants heal, ensuring you never go without teeth.
Final Restoration: Once your implants have fully integrated with the bone, we transition you from your provisional teeth to your “forever” smile. We use the TRIOS® Scanner to capture a mess-free impression. This meticulous design step ensures your final custom restoration is durable, stable, and aesthetically perfect.
Specialist Care Focused on Your Comfort
A complex restoration demands specialized skill. Because Dr. Hopkins manages both the intricate surgical and restorative phases of All-on-4, she offers a level of insight that general dentistry cannot provide. For you, this means peace of mind. You can trust that your smile is being designed by an expert dedicated to the highest standards of technical excellence and aesthetics.
