Canal Calem Periodontics Welcomes New Patients For Full-Arch, All-On-4® Dental Implants In Moorestown, NJ

Drs. Mario J. Canal and Ben Calem now welcome new patients for All-on-4® dental implants in Moorestown, NJ and Medford, NJ, without requiring a referral. All-on-4 dental implants are a preferred solution for those who have missing teeth but want a convenient and comfortable alternative to dentures.

Moorestown, NJ (PRWEB) - New patients with multiple missing teeth or traditional dentures are now welcome to visit Drs. Mario J. Canal and Ben Calem for All-on-4® dental implants in Moorestown, NJ and Medford, NJ, with or without a referral. The All-on-4 system is attractive to many due to its convenience, comfort and long-term reliability.

For decades, the placement of dental implants as a means to replace one or more missing teeth has become the standard of care. Through the years, implant dentistry has changed to provide a simpler and improved experience for the patient. Recently, the All-on-4 technique has been developed to allow the qualified patient to attain a fixed (non-removable) prosthesis/denture immediately after a tooth extraction. This process eliminates the need for a removable, traditional denture as a temporary means of tooth replacement during the healing phase of implant placement.

Both Drs. Canal and Calem have incorporated this innovative treatment into their practice as yet another way to provide the most comprehensive and predictable care for their patient base. Working closely with the patient’s restorative dentist, and dental lab, both Drs. Canal and Calem use 3D cone beam technology to confirm that a patient is a candidate for the All-on-4 procedure. If they are, the patient is treatment planned for the removal of their teeth and the immediate placement of approximately four to five dental implants.

Each dental implant is strategically placed within the patient’s jaw to insure the ideal fit and function of the fixed denture. This denture is then placed onto the implants, allowing the patient to leave the office with a reliable, non-removable denture that is not only esthetic, but functional as well. Approximately three to four months thereafter, the restorative dentist will then take impressions for the fixed, final denture.

Previously, if patients were able to have implants placed immediately at the time of extraction, then a removable denture was inserted to allow for the three-month healing phase. Often frustrated, patients found this removable denture unstable and challenging when trying to eat or speak. The All-on-4 technique has provided both the dental team and the patient the opportunity to no longer consider traditional, removable dentures as a viable option when multiple tooth extractions are necessary.

“We find that patients fall into two categories when treatment planning the All-on-4 procedures,” says Dr. Calem. “There are patients who have, unfortunately, never maintained their teeth due to extenuating circumstances and then there are those who have spent a significant amount of time in the dental chair and are still breaking down. Nonetheless, these individuals are frustrated and want definitive treatment with the best long-term prognosis.”

Through communication with the restorative clinician and proper planning, both Drs. Canal and Calem ensure that the transition from tooth removal to implant placement to fixed denture insertion is seamless offering a positive patient experience.
