One of our patients, William, used to be called "Snaggletooth" by his wife because of his failing teeth. After years of struggling to chew his food and feeling embarrassed about his smile, he finally decided to do something about it with All-on-4 dental implants. Now, William can chew his food again for the first time in years, and he has a brilliant smile he's proud to show off. Stories like William's happen in our office because All-on-4 technology has expanded the options for patients dealing with multiple failing teeth or uncomfortable dentures. Read on to learn more.

William's Journey to a New Smile

When William came to see Dr. Grillo, he learned about All-on-4 dental implants and what the treatment could do for him. Dr. Grillo explained the process thoroughly, discussed costs upfront, and answered all his questions. William appreciated the honesty and education he received before making such an important decision.

The treatment itself uses four dental implants to support a full arch of new teeth, and many patients receive temporary teeth the same day as their implant placement. William went through the process and waited while his implants healed over several months. When his permanent replacement teeth were ready, the transformation was complete.

That embarrassing nickname his wife used to call him? It's finally retired. The frustration of struggling through every meal? Gone.
