Benefits of All-On-4 Dental Implants
Lower Costs
Replacing a full dental arch of teeth with all-on-4 dental implants often costs less than treatment using traditional dental implants.
Quicker Results
Dr. Thomas Hodge can deliver faster results by using the All-on-4 system. He can often use a temporary restoration the same day that you can wear home after the surgery. Immediately restoring function and comfort.
Less Invasive
Patients that would normally need bone grafting often need no preliminary surgeries when All-on-4 is used instead. When fewer dental implants are placed, a shorter and less invasive surgery is the result.

All-on-4 Dental Implants
vs. Traditional Dentures
Appearance
At Batesville Dentistry, we design each prosthetic to match the color, shape, and size of the patient’s natural teeth. Traditional dentures can look more artificial than implant-supported restorations.
Convenience
Sick of removing your dentures overnight and replacing them with messy adhesives? All-on-4 dental implants are fixed in your mouth and can be cared for in the same way as natural teeth.
Function
Implant-supported dentures allow you to speak with confidence and to eat all the foods you like again. Traditional dentures are known for slipping out of place and resting on top of the gums.
Protection
By replacing a missing tooth, an implant stimulates the jawbone and prevents further atrophy. Dentures supported by implants actually help protect the existing bone structure.

After Care
All-on-4 Implant Surgery
Discomfort Managment
After surgery you may experience a dull ache and some swelling the first few days around the implant sites. These symptoms do not last long and can be managed with over the counter medications and ice packs.
Time Off
Resting after any surgical procedure is very important. You should devote time to focusing on your recovery. Some patients choose to take the first week after implant placement off from commitments and work. Avoid stress and intense physical activity during this period.
Soft Foods
It takes about four to six months for implant posts to fully fuse with the jawbone after surgery. Sticking to a soft-food diet until you are cleared by your dentist is important. Avoid eating especially crunchy or hard foods, like nuts, chips, and apples.
