Is it possible to switch to dentures after having temporary all-on-4 dental implants?

In the all on four implant system, since the protruding parts called Multiunit abutments extend from the gum, these protrusions will prevent you from using removable dentures. For this reason, it would be more logical to have a fixed temporary allonfour implant prosthesis instead of a new total prosthesis. The cost of this temporary prosthesis is similar to dentures

To answer your question, yes, it is possible to transition to regular dentures even if you’ve had implants. While this might not provide the same level of comfort and stability as your original All-on-4 treatment, it can be a more affordable option during this time. We recommend discussing this with your local dentist, who can assess your specific situation and suggest the best temporary solution for you.

Hi,

I understand your situation, and I’d like to offer a few recommendations. It might be worth consulting with a dentist to remove the bar from your temporary All on 4. Here are a few options to consider while you recover:

Healing Caps and Conventional Dentures: You could have healing caps placed and then get conventional dentures. This can provide a temporary solution while your treatment plan is adjusted.

Snap-in Dentures: Another option is to convert to snap-in dentures with ball attachments. These are more comfortable, don’t cover the palate, and can offer better functionality.

Dental Tourism: If cost is a major concern, exploring dental tourism might be worthwhile. In places like Cancun, treatments can be up to 70% more affordable, and you could receive high-quality care and a complete rehabilitation.

I hope these suggestions help you find a suitable solution and regain confidence in your smile!

Best regards,

Dr. Arzate
