Suffering from total or near-total tooth loss could leave you with poor quality of life and an aged appearance. But we can return function, health, and beauty to your smile, and in only one visit! In today’s blog, your team at Modern Dentistry of Shrewsbury talks about helping Shrewsbury, MA, smiles with All-On-X in only one sitting!

The Loss of Your Smile

You need a solution like All-On-X when you lose most or all of your teeth, which could happen for a number of reasons. We could lose teeth due to untreated cavities or infections, or even due to an injury to your face or jaw. However, the most common factor behind severe tooth loss is the presence of periodontitis, the advanced stage of gum disease. When this forms, the attachment tissues between your teeth and gums deteriorate, creating loose and missing teeth. Instead of watching your smile erode and your youthful facial features disappear, we can treat tooth loss in a way that stimulates jawbone growth and keeps your facial structure intact!

Planning Implant Solutions

The All-On-X system supports a complete row of new teeth with just four to six dental implants per arch. Our team will examine your smile to see which number is right for you. We will also choose the best angle, position, and depth to insert them, we ensure they can support a complete row of new teeth. Losing teeth can cause your jaw to erode, but this system uses dental implants that require less structure for support, so you can often receive a new smile without the need for surgical procedures to strengthen your smile, such as grafting or a sinus lift.

All-On-X in One Visit

Our team will insert the dental implants into your jaw. These new roots keep your jawbone intact and preserve your facial structure. We then attach a full row of new teeth to these posts. The teeth have been made from ceramic, which is very strong and durable, but can also be color-matched to blend with your smile and offer a more attractive smile. With All-On-X, we can provide a full smile in only one visit!

If you have any questions about how we treat tooth loss, or about how we support a full set of new and durable teeth, which are fixed in place and can last for decades without slipping, then contact our team today.
