I need about 15 months before I can afford to get my permanent all on four implants. Will my temporary implant teeth last that long if I take care of them?
Answer: All On 4 temporary restoration time Your temporary All-On-4 restoration is typically meant to last 6-8 months, but I have seen them last for up to 3 years prior to the final restoration. Those are very rare circumstances and usually involves some type of medical issue that arose after the initial surgery (such as a body cancer) and caused a delay in the patient getting their permanent teeth. The longevity of the temporary teeth depends on many factors such as your diet, whether or not you are a grinder, the type of opposing teeth, the adjustment of your bite, whether or not you are wearing your night guard, maintenance of the temporary teeth (ie. are the screws being occasionally re-torqued and occlusion verified), etc. If you are having to wait a long time before getting your final set of teeth, I would personally stick to a softer diet, wear my night guard at bedtime, and keep up with my oral hygiene routine.

Answer: How long will temporary all on four implants last? If what you had made was a conversion from a denture to a fixed bridge this can last 1-3 months. If you had a cad-cam milled temporary this can last 6-8 months.

Answer: The temporary will last about 6-8 months I would not advise using the temporary prosthesis for longer than 6-8 months. It is important to get the permanent set so that you can have a strong and clean prosthesis over the implants. The temporary one works well during the healing phase. This is useful because if there are any issues around the implants, they can still be corrected before getting the permanent teeth made.

Answer: Temporary Healing Denture and Final All on 4 Denture Your temporary denture should be good for about 6-8 months. Of course you want to use common sense and stick to a more bland diet, nothing that would make your dentures chip or fracture. You do not want to eat or do anything that would compromise the denture or implants while you heal. At my clinic sometimes we send our All on 4 patients home with a PMMA temporary bridge designed and milled with CAD/CAM technology. This way our patients have a second bridge in the case the original one breaks or fractures during the osseo integration period.
