PART 3
This four-part article series addresses frequently asked questions about
fixed oral rehabilitation using the breakthrough “All-On-4™” dental
implant technique.
Welcome back to our four-part article series on “All-On-4™” dental implants in New
York; the revolutionary protocol making it possible for patients to get new teeth in as
little as one day. Let’s continue answering those frequently asked questions of yours,
beginning with one of many patients’ key concerns…
FAQ: Does it hurt getting new teeth this way?
Answer: Arguably the first question a patient asks when investigating dental
implants in New York is whether or not the procedure is painful. No implant
surgeon would ever consider providing treatment without anesthesia, which, if you’ve
ever had any surgery done before, you will know renders you completely numb. You will
not feel a thing while your implants are being placed; in fact, you likely will be sedated as
well, so you will be unlikely to remember very much from the procedure either.
Even patients who suffer from bad anxiety at the prospect of dental treatment have
commented on how relaxed and pain-free their experience was. So rest assured that you
would be able to get beautiful new teeth without fear, anxiety, pain and discomfort.
If you are particularly fearful of the dentist and/or surgery, speak to your New York dental
implants professionals during your initial consultation and he or she will go to every
available measure to ensure your comfort during your journey to fixed oral rehabilitation.

2. FAQ: What will be done to control post-operative discomfort?
Answer: Once the anesthesia has worn off, it is totally normal for patients to experience
some (though usually minimal) post-operative discomfort in the first few days following
their procedure. This is easily controlled with analgesic medication, which your dental
implants dentist in New York will prescribe to you before you return home to rest. Taking
two painkillers every six hours is usually sufficient to keep you comfortable while your
mouth heals. Most patients report that the discomfort wanes after a few days and that
painkillers are hardly needed.
FAQ: I’m really nervous about dental treatment. What can be done to help
me with anxiety?
Answer: As it was explained in the first FAQ, you will be given the option for I.V
Sedation on the morning you are set to get your new tooth implants in New York.
Sedation affects the central nervous system, elevating you to a peaceful, calm state of
detachment. Even if you are incredibly phobic of the dentist, sedation will leave you
feeling happy and calm. Implant professionals do everything necessary to keep patients
relaxed and comfortable since it benefits them just as much to have a happy patient!
FAQ: What should I/shouldn’t I do in the weeks following the procedure
that might compromise optimal healing?
Answer: In the weeks following treatment, the jawbone will be bonding to the surface of
the implants in a process termed “osseointegration”. Your gums will also be healing up, so
you will need to keep your mouth clean and avoid any strenuous exercise to prevent
infection or damage to the healing areas. You should avoid smoking and drinking alcohol
as these slow healing and encourage oral bacteria to flourish. Additionally, you should
stick to a diet of soft foods in the first few months of having your new teeth implants
placed. This will assure avoiding excess pressure on the implants, thus allowing them to
successfully integrate.
