All on Four Teeth in a Day Helps Denture Wearers Chew More Comfortably

Fortunately, the All on Four Teeth in a Day procedure offers hope to dental patients dealing with ill-fitting dentures. In this procedure, patients are placed under IV sedation and four (or more) metal posts are imbedded into their jaw. These posts will then function as permanent anchors to which their dentures (which have been appropriately modified) will be screwed.

When you get All on Four from Kelowna dentists like Dr. Stephen T.E. Malfair, you can rest assured that your dentures will fit comfortably and securely, as if they were your natural teeth. As such, you can eat a wider variety of food more comfortably. You’ll no longer have to worry about embarrassing mishaps too, such as your dentures falling out during social events, and that alone is sure to give you increased self-confidence.

Installing Comfortable All on Four and Teeth in a Day Dental Implants

The Bay Today website has a news feature posted last January 10, 2014 that enumerates several ways folks can improve their dental hygiene. Daily maintenance of one’s teeth can prevent a laundry list of periodontal diseases, as well as permanent tooth loss. For those with dentures, the article suggests the following:

“Seniors: Brush natural teeth twice a day with fluoride toothpaste and clean in between the teeth at least once a day.  Clean and soak dentures (full or partial) daily.  Brush and massage the gums, either with a soft toothbrush or with a warm, damp cloth.”
