BiteLock™ All-on-4 Dental Implants in Irving
Our team at DFW Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery knows that conventional dentures have many shortcomings. They are often uncomfortable and prone to being loose. They lose their fit over time, and they’re not particularly efficient or effective at chewing.
Patients who are facing the prospect of dentures now have a better, more stable alternative—BiteLock™. With this treatment approach, our surgeons place four or more dental implants in the most optimal position. The prosthesis is then secured and adapted to those implants. The patient leaves the office with a full complement of fixed teeth on the same day of placement. Once the implants have healed the permanent prosthesis is fabricated and delivered.
BiteLock is an All-On-4 implant-supported dentures system that appeals to patients who will lose most or all of their natural teeth. This technique allows for full mouth rehabilitation in one surgery. The patients will leave the office with a new provisional prosthesis that is fabricated in the office on the day of oral surgery, giving you teeth in one day. The physical link between the appliance and the jaw helps the prosthetic tolerate more significant chewing forces than an unsupported denture can.
Implant-supported dental prosthesis feels more natural and tend to have a more lifelike appearance, too, which is another benefit of BiteLock.
Whether you already have dentures or are getting ready to be fitted for a set in the near future, it’s important to note that you have other options. Specifically, BiteLock is a denture alternative that will leave you with a far higher quality of life and avoid many of the shortcomings of dentures.
What are the issues that many denture wearers face? Things like a loose fit, poor chewing power, disappointing aesthetics, and more are all commonly seen. Fortunately, BiteLock steers clear of those problems, delivering incredible performance from our Teeth in a Day procedure.
The fundamentals of BiteLock are an all-on-4 dental implant procedure from our Irving dental office that uses four dental implants to create a stable and steady base for your prosthetic. Once in place after your single surgery, you’ll get to enjoy chewing like you haven’t in years, and you should feel free to smile wide for every picture now that a full mouth of teeth is waiting to be displayed.
We understand that you might be concerned about your jaw health as it relates to having dental implants. Many other patients have shared your concerns, only to find that our system was able to place four implants securely in the healthiest part of the jaw. That’s all that is needed to secure your prosthetic and set you up for a lifetime of great performance. The Bitelock All-on-4 dental implants from our Irving dental clinic are not a temporary solution – this is a permanent answer to a problem that may have been plaguing you for years.
