Full-arch implant solutions like All-On-4 give patients with failing or missing teeth a fixed, non-removable set of teeth. Here's how local periodontists approach it.
Full-arch implant restoration replaces an entire upper or lower arch of teeth using four to six strategically placed implants that support a fixed bridge. Often marketed as All-On-4 or 'Teeth-in-a-Day,' it lets many patients leave with temporary fixed teeth the same day surgery is performed, with a final prosthesis after healing. Several Sarasota-Bradenton periodontists, including practices offering Teeth-in-a-Day, perform these cases.
A fixed full-arch bridge anchored on four implants.
Uses six implants for added support, often for the upper arch.
Immediate fixed temporary teeth on surgery day, replaced later with the permanent bridge.
Periodontists are the gum, soft-tissue and dental-implant specialists. After dental school they complete about three years of accredited residency. The defining credential is board certification — Diplomate of the American Board of Periodontology — on top of AAP membership.
