Replacing teeth with all-on-4 dental implants is a breakthrough technique. Rather than 6-8 implants, it only uses 4 implants for a full arch replacement.

Chicago, IL -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/24/2018 -- Bucktown Dental Associates now offers all-on-4 dental implants. The all-on-4 implants allow a full arch of teeth to be anchored to only four dental implants. Traditional treatment requires at least 6-8 implants to carry a full arch of teeth. The all on 4 dental implants offers a permanently anchored teeth replacement for patients without teeth or those with failing dentition.

Replacing teeth with the all-on-4 dental implants was invented by Dr. Paulo Malo, a Portuguese dentist, and Nobel Biocare implant company. The all-on-4 name is a trade mark for Nobel Biocare. Additionally, Nobel Biocare implants offer the best outcome when performing this kind of treatment.

With only four implants, "the all-on-4 dental implants allow a patient with severe bone resorption to have a full arch of teeth without bone grafts", says Dr. Yasser Elseweifi. The idea is to use a special dental implant placed at an angle to avoid anatomical challenges. Thereby, bone grafts for the sinus or lower jaw are not needed. Two of the implants are angled and two are kept straight. The four implants are then connected with a titanium frame. The final implant denture is built around the titanium frame.

Treatment with all on 4 implants takes several steps. After extracting the teeth, four dental implants are placed in pre-planned locations. A temporary denture is then anchored to the implants. After 4-6 months of healing, final impressions are taken. A final denture is made in the lab and tried in. The final denture is most often made of a plastic base and plastic teeth. The denture can also be made of zirconia. The zirconia denture is more durable and more esthetic. The last treatment step is to anchor the final denture to the implants.

Replacing teeth with the all-on-4 dental implants is not cheap. The average cost is $20,000. However, the benefits far exceed the treatment cost. The patient gets a full arch of teeth that is securely anchored to the jaw bone. This means more self-confidence and better enjoyment of life. Some offices offer cheaper versions of the all-on-4 dental implants. These cheaper versions often use cheap generic implants and components that do not last long and can cause bone loss and further complications.

Full arch zirconia implant bridge is far superior to the traditional full arch plastic implant bridge. It is stronger, stain resistant, and usually have a longer lab warranty.

Chicago, IL -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/30/2018 -- Bucktown Dental Associates is proud to offer full arch zirconia implant bridge in Chicago. The full arch zirconia implant bridge, also called a hybrid denture, offers a permanently anchored teeth replacement for edentulous patients. It is far stronger than the traditional plastic full arch implant bridge. Therefore, it can withstand the significant stresses of chewing. Zirconia offers better aesthetic outcome and is resistant to staining.

In general, a full arch implant bridge is more secure and far more stable than removable dentures. They are also more stable than implant dentures. Implant dentures are removable dentures that anchors to implants but can be removed by the patient. In contrast, a hybrid denture is permanently secured to 5 or 6 dental implants and can only be removed by a dentist.

"Zirconia is a porcelain type material; therefore, is biocompatible and does not cause allergy," says Dr. Yasser Elseweifi. Because it is porcelain, it can be made to look as lifelike as natural teeth. The full arch zirconia implant bridge is made in steps. First, a plastic denture is made. The plastic denture is then scanned, and the zirconia bridge is A is fabricated from the scanned image by CAD/CAM machines. The digital processing and CAD/CAM technology provide much better fit than an implant denture or traditional plastic hybrid dentures.

Because of the structural toughness of a full arch zirconia implant bridge, dental laboratories usually offer a five-year warranty for such restorations. In contrast, traditional plastic hybrid denture only have a six-month warranty. However, expect to pay few thousand dollars more for a zirconia bridge. The extra cost usually covers the laboratory fees.

Full mouth dental implants are great for anyone currently wears full denture or is about to wear dentures. It provides stable tooth replacement that is far better than an implant denture.

Chicago, IL -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/30/2018 -- Full mouth dental implants can be a more affordable teeth replacement solution to traditional dental implant bridges. Rather than use 10-12 dental implants to replace teeth in a dental arch, only 5-6 implants are used. This significantly reduces treatment cost, while offering the patient full arch restoration. Bucktown Dental Associates now offers full arch dental implants to Chicago residents.

Replacement of teeth with removable dentures offers an unstable solution. A denture usually moves on chewing and reduces self-confidence and self-esteem. Patients try to solve the problem by using denture adhesives. However, unstable dentures cause sore spots and the uneven pressure cause shrinkage of jaw bones. The alternative is to use an implant denture stabilized with dental implants. A better solution is to use full arch dental implants.

Full mouth dental implants are permanently anchored to jaw bones through dental implants. Therefore, they provide stimulation of jaw bones and prevent bone shrinkage. "They also provide good support for cheeks and lips, preventing caving of facial appearance," says Dr. Yasser Elseweifi. Because the full arch dental implants are anchored to implants, they provide more stable replacement of teeth, allowing normal chewing. Unlike an implant denture, they cannot be removed by the patient and need to be removed by a dentist. Usually this is done during hygiene visits.

Full mouth dental implants are also called a hybrid denture or full arch dental implants. The prosthetic part is made up of a titanium bar covered by a pink plastic part that replaces the gum and teeth. The titanium bar provides the framework that supports the teeth and anchors the restoration to the dental implants. Because treatment with full mouth dental implants involve surgery and many restorative steps, treatment can take 4-6 months.

Toothache happen at any time. Prompt treatment followed by definitive management can stop aggravation, reduce cost, or prevent tooth loss.

Chicago, IL -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/03/2018 -- Toothache is not something to take lightly. Sharp tooth pain often urges people to get prompt relief or run to the emergency room for treatment. Bucktown Dental Associates now offers same day management of dental emergency and toothache. Chicago dentist Dr. Elseweifi performs a thorough evaluation to determine the cause of toothache. He then performs sedative and emergency treatment to stop the sharp pain.

A toothache is often felt as a constant throbbing pain in the tooth. It is usually started by exposing the tooth to cold or hot. It can also be felt by biting on the tooth. Toothache is caused by an injury to the inside pulp of the tooth or surrounding tissue. The primary cause of toothache is tooth decay (cavity) to children and adult teeth. Toothache can also be caused by the pressure ins a pus pocket, also called a dental abscess. A dental abscess often follows a deep cavity with spread of infection to the bone. Gum disease with localized infection can cause toothache. Finally, toothache may be caused by a cracked tooth or a broken filling.

There are some useful home remedies for toothache. Rinsing the teeth with warm water and removing food debris from around the tooth can soothe the pain. Taking a pain medication such as Tylenol or Ibuprofen also helps. However, home remedies only offer temporary relief and do not substitute professional dental evaluation and treatment. Toothache is a dental emergency that requires pain management, followed by a plan for definitive treatment to fix the problem and prevent its recurrence. Delaying dental treatment often increase treatment cost and may result in tooth loss.

Emergency dental treatment of toothache may include initial cleaning or a cavity and placement of a sedative filling. It may include starting root canal treatment to drain infection inside a tooth and stop that throbbing pain. It may also include incision and drainage of a gum abscess. In some situations, it may include extraction of a non-restorable cracked tooth. Patients should call us immediately or just come to the office and let Chicago dentist Dr. Elseweifi diagnose and treat toothache properly.
