When you're facing the challenge of multiple missing teeth or even an entire lost arch, it's important to find the best restorative solution for your smile. At Acre Wood Dental in Temple, TX, we specialize in advanced full-arch restorations, offering a superior approach with our All-on-5 dental implants.
While often referred to as "All-on-4" in the dental community, our team goes an extra step to provide you with a more robust and enduring foundation for your new smile, utilizing five strategically placed dental implants. This innovative technique offers a cost-effective, less invasive path to your complete smile transformation.
What Are All-on-5 Implants?
All-on-5 dental implants offer a strong solution for our patients who need to replace an entire upper or lower arch of teeth. Instead of replacing each missing tooth individually, which can be costly and extensive, we strategically place five high-quality dental implants into the jawbone. These implants act as stable anchors for a custom-designed full arch of prosthetic teeth.
All-on-5 implant treatment not only restores your ability to eat and speak with confidence, but also plays a crucial role in preserving the strength and health of your jawbone. Each of the five dental implants follows the standard procedure: a durable titanium post is surgically placed into the jaw, an abutment connects the post to the prosthetic, and finally, a custom-crafted full-arch denture is securely attached. The result: a strong, natural-looking, fully restored smile.
Why Choose All-on-5 Implants?
Enhanced Stability
Implant-supported teeth are permanently anchored in place, eliminating the movement and discomfort common with traditional dentures.
Preserved Health
Fixed implants help preserve jawbone strength and facial contours while supporting long-term oral health.
Natural Results
Regain natural chewing, clear speech, and renewed confidence with a full-arch restoration that looks and feels natural for years to come.
The All-on-5 Process at Acre Wood Dental
Your journey to a renewed smile with All-on-5 implants begins with a thorough consultation at our Temple, TX dental office. We'll assess your oral health, including the strength and density of your jawbone, and ensure there are no signs of active tooth decay or periodontal disease.
Receiving All-on-5 implants follows a precise, multi-step approach:
- Dental implant placement. The five dental implant posts are carefully placed into your jawbone.
- Osseointegration. A crucial healing period follows, during which your jawbone naturally fuses with the titanium implants. This creates a strong, stable foundation for your restorations. During this time, we'll provide temporary bridges or dentures so you can maintain a functional smile.
- Attaching the final prosthesis. Once your mouth has fully healed and the implants are securely integrated, your custom-designed full arch of new teeth will be securely attached to the implants.
The result: a permanent, beautiful, perfectly fitted new smile!
