What to Expect from All-on-4 Dental Implants

Dr. Taylor will create your unique treatment program and talk about your choices for sedation during your procedures. During your first procedure, the implants will be anchored into the jawbone. Dr. Taylor will put a temporary denture over the dental implants as your gums and jaw recover and your custom dentures are crafted. When the healing period is over, you will come back to get your custom-made dentures attached and adjusted if necessary for a more comfortable fit.
What to Expect After All-On-4 Dental Implants
Following your implant surgery, you may encounter some discomfort and gum sensitivity. While wearing your temporary dentures, there will be specific dietary restrictions and cleaning guidelines to adhere to. Additionally, you'll need to schedule regular follow-up appointments during the healing phase to allow Dr. Taylor to oversee your recovery and ensure that the implants are integrating well with your bone socket and gums. Once your custom dentures are in place, maintaining them becomes crucial. Treat them just like natural teeth by regularly flossing and brushing. It's still essential to see Robert M. Taylor III, DDS for annual check-ups and semi-annual cleanings to preserve your dentures' condition and to enable Dr. Taylor to monitor the health of your gums and jawbone.
Robert M. Taylor III, DDS Reviews
I have always had a fear of the dentist and never liked going. I have been to a lot of dental offices but none like Dr. Taylor’s. His staff is absolutely wonderful. They all make you feel so comfortable and they care. Taylor worked on 2 cavities and made sure I was totally taken care of the entire process. Dr. Taylor was quick, efficient but also gentle and reassuring. Taylor talked me through the entire process and made sure I knew what was going on. 100/10 recommend this office if you are looking for a dentist.
Great service staff are always pleasant
I usually have terrible anxiety around the dentist but Dr Taylor & his amazing team have changed that! Everyone is so kind & accommodating! I would recommend anyone to come see Dr Taylor!
Every time I visit Dr Taylor's office I have an fantastic experience (especially from Jennifer, Kim and Tracy). The staff is always welcoming and professional. The waiting area is always clean, modern, and comfortable. Tracy the hygienist who did my cleaning was thorough yet gentle and she took the time to explain every step of the process. Dr Taylor was equally impressive, giving me a detailed examination and answering all my questions in a way that was easy to understand. I appreciated that they didn't try to push unnecessary procedures but focused on what I genuinely needed. The entire appointment was smooth, efficient, and pain free. They use the latest equipment, which made me feel confident I was getting the best care possible. Whether you're nervous about dental work or just looking for a new dentist, I highly recommend Dr Taylor's office. I drive three hour round trips and will be returning for all my future appointments!
I have had dental anxiety since my early teen years due to an accident that caused dental trauma, and I have been to my fair share of dental offices because of this. No office has ever compared to Dr. Taylor and his staff. Everyone at this office is so kind and genuine; The front desk always greets you with a smile, the hygienists are kind and patient, and the Dr. himself is great! It feels like everyone there really cares for you, they make sure you are comfortable and they are very patient & understanding. Dr. Taylor himself has made every procedure I’ve ever had very quick and painless, and I cannot recommend this office enough.

About UsAll-on-4® Dental Implants FAQs
What are all-on-4 dental implants?
All-on-4 dental implants are a revolutionary solution for those looking to replace missing teeth. Instead of using an implant for every missing tooth, this method utilizes just four strategically placed implants to anchor an entire arch of teeth. This approach offers both stability and durability, ensuring a natural look and feel for patients.
How do they differ from traditional implants?
Traditional dental implants replace each missing tooth with a separate implant. While this method is effective, it may require multiple surgeries and a longer recovery time. On the other hand, All-on-4 implants streamline the process. Patients can benefit from a more efficient procedure and quicker healing by using only four implants to support an entire set of teeth.
What are the main benefits of all-on-4 implants?
Patients benefit most from the speedy recovery time associated with All-on-4 dental implants, as well as their cost-effective nature. In addition, these implants are very natural and discrete. Incorporating the latest advancements in dental technology, Dr. Taylor's practice in Bay City, MI is dedicated to providing top-tier care for our patients.
