According to the CDC, by the age of 65 nearly 1 in 5 Americans will have lost all of their teeth, and nearly twice that number by age 75. As a prosthodontist with an on-site dental lab, Dr. Saj Jivraj, DDS, MSEd, specializes in treating damaged or missing teeth, with one new treatment option including a complete set of implanted dentures in a single day.
Traditionally, it is not uncommon for clients to require two or three dental appointments for a single procedure, so dentures, implants, and crowns can be ordered from a dental lab or sent back for adjustments. Using an on-site laboratory, Anacapa Dental Arts Institute can complete denture relines in a few hours, add new teeth to partial dentures, or build and implant an entirely new set of teeth, without extra delays.
Though dentures have become a standard tool for clients missing most of their teeth, they come with several drawbacks, such as often fitting loosely if they are not implanted, or taking up to a year to heal the implants before the dentures can be used. Using the improved All-On-Four procedure, Dr. Jivraj designs, creates, and implants full dentures in a single day, using an advanced technique that requires only four implant posts.
To ensure the most accurate fit and appearance, the clinic uses advanced imaging techniques that can quickly map the exact shape and shade of a client’s existing teeth without requiring a standard dental impression. The clinic also has access to CT scans, digital x-rays, and innovative new tools for assessing and correcting bite misalignments.
For additional comfort, Anacapa Dental Arts Institute offers a full range of both general and cosmetic dentistry services, which clients can access while under mild oral sedation. This option allows for painless dentistry without anxiety, as clients will be awake, but often report feeling as if they are in a “dream-like” state.
