Picture Perfect Teeth
Picture perfect, Hollywood teeth just aren’t that common. The truth is the vast majority of people sport some type of dental imperfection, including misaligned, crooked, discolored, widely-spaced, or even missing teeth. Nonetheless, most people still place great importance on the quality and character of a person’s smile.
We’re obsessed with having flawless, white teeth neatly aligned and perfectly proportioned. According to a survey by the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, 40 percent of women and 35 percent of men consider an imperfect smile less attractive.
Nearly half of all Americans also considered a person’s smile the most memorable feature after initially meeting. As it turns out, your smile plays a critical role in not only making a great first impression but also in how people perceive you in general. This is especially true when it comes to romance and dating. Two in five Americans would not go on a second date with someone who has crooked teeth.
Even more intriguing, there is evidence that a great smile stands the test of time like few other cosmetic enhancements do. According to the same study, 45 percent of Americans agree that a smile is a person’s most attractive feature regardless of age.
Smiles withstand the test of time regardless of our age
According to the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry, 45 percent of Americans agree that a smile is the most attractive feature people have no matter how old they are.
But a great smile isn’t just an essential tool for attracting the perfect mate, it also has financial benefits. Job applicants with nice teeth and great smiles are more likely to get the job. And while flashing a great smile might only earn you a penny more per smile, picture perfect teeth can give you tremendous confidence boosts that are hard to quantify. How do you measure the value of your own self-confidence and self-esteem?
Most of us are not born with picture perfect teeth. So what can we do?
That’s where cosmetic dentistry comes in.
For those of us not blessed with a Hollywood smile, there are a variety of dental procedures that can improve, enhance, and even completely remake our smiles.
Teeth whitening, cosmetic dental crowns, porcelain veneers, and conventional dental implants are some of the more popular options available to those who aspire to a perfect smile.
However, for those with particularly bad, rotten, or missing teeth, minor adjustments just won’t suffice. For some patients, it’s not a simple matter of repairing or replacing one or two disfigured teeth or some mild malocclusion. They are unhappy with their smiles from top to bottom, inside and out. Some may not have any teeth at all. When this is the case, a complete and total smile makeover is necessary, and the answer could be the All-On-4® dental implants or a full-mouth reconstruction.
What Are All-On-4® Dental Implants?
All-On-4® dental implant therapy is a total smile rejuvenation procedure that gives patients brand new, picture perfect teeth. By combining the structural integrity and longevity of dental implants with a machine-fabricated dental bridge, at ArtLab Dentistry we are able to provide our patients who have broken, decayed, or otherwise compromised teeth complete dental rehabilitation for much less cost than conventional full-mouth reconstruction treatments.
Better yet, the entire procedure takes less time and is far less invasive than conventional reconstructive oral surgery. With All-On-4® dental implants, a comprehensive smile makeover isn’t just for celebrities.
Perfect Smile & Teeth For Less
Thanks to All-On-4® dental implants, a picture-perfect smile is within the reach of those with particularly bad teeth (or no teeth at all!).
For patients lacking teeth, All-On-4® dental implants are often the recommended and preferred treatment path. That’s because, as the name suggests, All-On-4® implants only require four strategically placed implants to replace an entire dental arch. That means a patient seeking a complete smile makeover will only need eight implants for both their upper and lower arches as opposed to 32 conventional individual tooth implants.
Essentially, the All-On-4® technique allows patients to receive full-mouth reconstruction and rehabilitation for less. The All-On-4® treatment concept requires fewer implants, less time, is less invasive, and costs less than conventional reconstructive surgery.
The All-On-4® dental implant treatment has also made bone grafts, which are often necessary for conventional implant therapies, a thing of the past. Painful bone grafts and long recovery periods are seldom necessary.
