Are you looking for a quality denture that fits well, looks natural, and works reliably, all while being cost-effective? It might sound like a lot to ask, but finding the right option can be more challenging than it seems. Implant dentures, supported by systems like All-on-4®, offer stable and secure solutions. However, they come with higher costs and longer healing times, and not everyone qualifies for conventional implants. But what if there were alternatives to All-on-4 that offer all the benefits without the drawbacks? Allow us to introduce Fix-on-Six® with mini dental implants. This innovative system offers the stability and natural feel you desire without the high costs and prolonged recovery. Everyone should have access to the benefits of modern dental technology. That’s why we offer Fix-on-Six, making the perfect denture more accessible and affordable for all.
What Are the Benefits of an Implant Roundhouse Bridge?
Conventional dentures offer a much faster fix for missing teeth but often fall short in stability and comfort because they rest on the gums. This surface-level solution may enhance your smile, making it look complete, but it lacks the natural feel and full functionality of real teeth. Dentures can slip while eating or talking, leading to awkward moments and sore gums. This lack of stability can make everyday activities like chewing and speaking more challenging, negatively impacting your confidence and comfort.
In contrast, roundhouse bridges are horseshoe-shaped dentures anchored to dental implants that Dr. Hopkins places in the jawbone, providing a more secure and stable solution. This method replaces a full arch of teeth, eliminating the common problems associated with traditional dentures. Implant roundhouse bridges stay firmly in place, unlike conventional dentures, which can cause you to gag or trap food particles underneath the bulky pallet. This stability translates to greater comfort and ease of maintenance. Patients often find that roundhouse bridges feel more like natural teeth, allowing them to eat and speak confidently. The secure fit also means less irritation and fewer sores, making it a preferred option for many seeking a reliable and comfortable denture solution.
All-on-4 Alternatives: Fix-on-Six With Mini Dental Implants
Opting for a roundhouse implant bridge comes with numerous advantages. This type of prosthetic offers a more natural feel and unmatched stability compared to traditional dentures. With implants anchoring the bridge, you’ll experience a comfortable and firm fit, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile confidently. Your dentures will feel like your own teeth, giving you the freedom and assurance to go about your day without worry. However, when exploring restoration options, it’s important to recognize that implant dentures vary significantly in quality and effectiveness.
For instance, the All-on-4® method uses traditional dental implants approximately 5 millimeters wide. Because of their larger size, these implants need a stronger bone structure and take more time to heal.
On the other hand, the Fix-on-Six® system utilizes mini dental implants. These implants are significantly smaller—usually less than 3 millimeters in diameter. This reduced size makes them minimally invasive, streamlining the procedure and accelerating the treatment timeline. One of the standout features of mini dental implants is their ability to support the immediate placement of a prosthetic. What this means is that if you are eligible, Dr. Hopkins can place your new teeth on the same day he places the implants, providing you with immediate functionality. This swift result is particularly beneficial for those seeking a quick and efficient denture solution with little disruption to their daily routine.
Finding More Secure Alternatives to All-on-4
It is also crucial to consider how these implant systems support your denture. The All-on-4® approach relies on four traditional implants to secure a full-arch bridge. With only four implants, each one bears significant pressure. If one fails, the remaining implants must take on the additional load, potentially compromising the stability and longevity of your new teeth.
On the other hand, the Fix-on-Six® system uses six to 10 mini implants. Despite having more implants, the procedure is still less invasive. These additional implants also spread the pressure more evenly across your jaw. This even distribution makes the denture more secure, providing greater comfort and a longer-lasting solution.
