Are you missing some or all of your teeth? All-on-4 is a new dental service now provided at Brookings Dental Arts.

All-on-4 refers to “all” top or bottom teeth being supported “on four” dental implants. In other words, it is a full, fixed dental bridge supported on four small screws embedded in the jaw. This dental bridge replaces all teeth. It’s a cost-effective alternative to conventional dental implants.

Patients who are good candidates for All-on-4 are missing some or all of their teeth due to injury or decay. Because your teeth, gums and jawbone work together, losing a tooth can lead to additional tooth loss and bone degeneration. Whether you choose a dental implant or All-on-4, it’s important to deal with tooth loss now, rather than wait until it gets worse and worse.

All-on-4 benefits include:

• A beautiful set of functioning new teeth
• No need for dentures
• Shorter installation healing time than other implant options
• Prevention of further bone loss and a decreased need for a bone graft

All-on-4 is a complex procedure, and you want only the most experienced dentist. Dr. Brice Chang has been placing and restoring implants for over 15 years, for a total of nearly 2,000 implants. In 2015 he received the Mastership Award from the Academy of General Dentistry, which required more than 1,000 hours of continued education. He’s completed extensive training in the All-on-4 procedure, above and beyond the Mastership Award. When you visit Dr. Chang, you know you’re receiving the best care.

Other dentists typically charge $60,000 for a set of two All-on-4 bridges. For a limited time, Brookings Dental Arts is offering this procedure for up to $25,000 per bridge, for a total of up to $50,000 for a set of two All-on-4 bridges. (This price includes the surgery, restorative procedure and the bridge.) That’s a significant discount. Plus, you won’t need to travel out of town for dental surgery. Dr. Brice Chang provides both the surgery and restoration in the Brookings Dental Arts clinic.
