Can You Prevent the Need For a Bone Graft?

If you're considering All-on-4® dental implants, you may wonder if there's anything you can do to prevent a bone graft. The good news is that you can do a few things to reduce your risk of needing a bone graft.

First, it's important to have realistic expectations about the procedure. All-on-4 dental implants are not suitable for everyone. If you have significant bone loss in your jaw, you will likely need a bone graft to have the procedure.

Second, choose an experienced implant dentist who has plenty of experience placing All-on-4 dental implants. A qualified dentist will place the implants in the optimal position to minimise needing a bone graft.

Finally, take good care of your teeth and gums before and after the procedure. Good oral hygiene helps keep the implant site clean and free of infection, which can reduce the risk of needing a bone graft.

At the Next Smile™ Melbourne All-on-4® Centre, we understand that losing your teeth can be a major and life-altering setback. Whether you've suffered tooth loss due to age, injury, or disease, we know how difficult it can be to feel confident about your appearance and quality of life without healthy teeth. That's why we've dedicated ourselves to providing high-quality permanent dental implants in a single day to start living your best life as soon as possible.

Many people are subject to fearing pain. This fear can often prevent them from exploring permanent solutions to their tragic dental problems. Dental implants is a procedure that replaces missing teeth whereby implants are fixed into the jawbone. Natural-like teeth are then fixed onto these implants creating a new set of teeth and restoring your smile. This may sound painful and a long process but it doesn’t have to be. If several teeth are missing, an All-On-4 treatment technique is used whereby the entire teeth arch is placed on only four dental implants rather than every individual tooth. The best way to learn whether the dental implant procedure is right for you is to seek advice and expertise from your dental professional. How Much Does It Hurt? The pain from dental implants is comparable to the pain from a tooth extraction. The pain is bearable however you should understand that it can hurt during and after the dental implant process is complete. Some patients have reported th

What Are Speedy Groovy Implants?

NobelSpeedy Groovy implants are a type of implant with particular grooves. They are narrow and have a fully intertwined body to improve the firmness and steadiness of the implant – even in soft bone. In addition, they come in different diameters and lengths, providing surgical flexibility. The implants are made of biocompatible titanium with a TiUnite surface that allows for greater osseointegration. Osseointegration is the integration of the dental implant with the jawbone.   The All-on-4® procedure uses NobelSpeedy Groovy implants, including inserting two implants at an angle in the jaw, avoiding sinuses and thin, poor-quality bone.
