| All-On-4 Plus® | Traditional Denture | Explanation | |
Stability | check | close | All-On-4 Plus® is anchored to the jaw with implants, providing a fixed and stable solution, while dentures rest on the gums and can shift or slip, especially while eating or speaking. |
Bone Health | check | close | The implants in All-On-4 Plus® stimulate the jawbone, helping prevent bone loss, while dentures do not, which can lead to bone resorption and changes in facial structure over time. |
Comfort | check | close | All-On-4 Plus® feels more natural because it’s fixed and doesn’t press down on the gums. Dentures, on the other hand, can cause irritation, sore spots, and discomfort from prolonged wear. |
Bite Force | check | close | With All-On-4 Plus®, patients regain much of their natural bite force, allowing them to eat a wider variety of foods comfortably, whereas dentures significantly limit chewing power. |
Appearance | check | close | All-On-4 Plus® offers a more natural and aesthetic appearance, mimicking the look and feel of real teeth, whereas dentures can sometimes look artificial and may affect facial aesthetics over time. |
Maintenance | check | close | All-On-4 Plus® requires regular brushing and dental visits, much like natural teeth, while dentures need to be removed daily for cleaning and occasionally adjusted for fit. |
Longevity | check | close | All-On-4 Plus® is designed to be a long-term solution that can last decades with proper care. Dentures may need replacement every 5-7 years due to wear and changes in the jaw structure. |
Speech | check | close | The secure fit of All-On-4 Plus® allows for clearer speech and pronunciation, while dentures can sometimes affect speech, causing slurring or a 'clicking' sound. |
Cost | close | check | All-On-4 Plus® has a higher initial cost due to the implants and custom-milled titanium frames, but the reduced need for frequent replacements may offer long-term savings. Dentures are generally more affordable initially but may require periodic replacements and adjustments. |
Lifestyle Impact | check | close | All-On-4 Plus® gives patients a secure, comfortable, and low-maintenance solution that feels more like natural teeth, enhancing daily life quality. Dentures require more maintenance and can impact diet and comfort, especially for active individuals. |
