Awesome thanks 👍...
is there any value in adding Himalayan Pink Salt in the water for the pick with right ratio of course for every day use? Lowest setting of course
There is no value in adding Himalayan Pink Salt versus any other salt. Saltwater rinse is always a good way to sterilize the mouth a little more, but is not necessary everyday. Thank you for your comment!
When do you recommend using the Waterpik around the implants at a higher pressure?
We recommend staying on the medium setting unless your provider indicates otherwise. Thank you!
Hello,
You didn't mention flossing between the bridge and the gums... Some videos I have watched say not to get so over zealous with flossing all on four because of fibers left behind. Do you also believe this?
Flossing is fine by us, but we believe a water pik is far more convenient to use!
Everything else I’ve read has said the Water Pik doesn’t take the place of flossing. “Fuzzy Floss” is often recommended and a baby toothbrush to get under the gum line of the 4on 4. I like your idea including the bleach rinse but am concerned that plaque and some food debris will be left underneath using just the Water Pik. ( I did buy the Ion model you recommended and like it very much).
I don’t have my 4 on 4 yet, but am still mulling over your technique of water flossing only. It certainly is the easiest way to go and so much less hassle! So when your patients come in for their 6 month cleaning the Water Pik has not left behind any plaque or debris under there? Thanks! I just don’t want to mess up such a large investment!
@@patriciageorge9648 Hi Patricia,
Great questions. Yes with proper waterpik usage there is virtually no debris or plaque left under the bridge. The reason for this is on the tissue side of the bridge we design it to be very cleansable with its shape and we also leave it with an extremely polished surface so that plaque can't stick well in the first place. We have taken many many off and they look brand new even years in! Thanks again for the questions.
Thanks so much for answering. What if the patient lives out of state, how do they get it cleaned and how often, because a trip back might be not feasible.Thanks so much.
@@patriciageorge9648 Great question! I understand. Thankfully in most cases the teeth never need to come off. What the patient does on a daily basis is far more important than a 1 time a year cleaning. Waterpik is your best friend and helps insure your implant teeth will last a long long time! We simply ask to have an xray sent in so that we can review bone levels with the patient on a periodic basis but that can be done locally.
Do these recommendations apply as well to those with just single tooth dental implants?
Sure! Flossing or water flossing is always a great thing to help keep you gums healthy around implants!
I am very concerned about keeping them clean as time goes by. My question today is about the contour of the final device. can you mill it so that there are no concave spots that fit along the gum line? can the final surface be flat or even convex? At 76 years old I don't care so much about appearance. Being able to keep them clean is far more important to me
Yes. We take a lot of pride and our work and we make sure everything we do is convex and cleansable. Great question!

@@jaximplantsanddenturescan peoples with autism and anxiety can have implants?….
If I have a upper full arch zirconia on the top would I be able to receive a titanium upper arch on the bottom.
Hi,
Yes you can have an upper zirconia and a lower titanium bar/zirconia arch. We have done that before and it presents no issues!
Give us a call at 904-999-0000 for a consultation and we would be happy to discuss further if you would like!
Hi doc. One question. When can I start using a sonicare electric brush after getting all on 4 dentures?
Typically you can start at the one week mark with the waterpik starting at the two week mark. Great question. Thank you!

I just got my all-on-4 procedure in Sherman Oaks, CA a week ago, and I might’ve been doing it wrong for the past week. I used the waterpik ion every other day on a high pressure setting since day one, as well as brushing the teeth and brushing the gums around the implant, but did gargle chlorhexidine oral rinse they prescribed to me, as well as took ibuprofen and amoxicillin. A week later, it’s still sore, irritating and gums are still tender and sensitive to cold. Should I be concerned?
I’m not in so much pain and agony and am able to sleep at night with my temporary. I still have yet to get bottom side implants, but my next appointment is on May 9th.
I had my waterpik ion on pressure setting 5, settings are 1 to 10. I finished the ibuprofen today, but still have 6 days left on the amoxicillin.
@@eternus154 Hi! In our office we typically don't recommend using the waterpik until two weeks post surgery due to the gums healing. However, without knowing exactly how your treatment was done or what their protocol is I would recommend giving your office where the surgery was performed a call!
How about using mouthwash instead of bleach in the waterpik?
Yes that is certainly an option for those who want to!
Great question!
Can you use a toothpaste on zirconia denture?
Yes, you can use toothpaste. Feel free to call us with any more questions! 904-999-9000.
Bleach ?😳 What about Peroxide
Hi there! Peroxide is also a good disinfectant, but bleach may be more effective in certain cases. Ultimately, this is what our Doctors recommend to our patients to keep their implants healthy. If you have anymore questions, or want to set up your complimentary consultation, give us a call at 904-999-9000. Thank you!
Why bleach, it seems as if Peroxide should work perfectly fine.🤔🤔

Hi Mary,
Yes in a very dilute solution it is actually very beneficial. We give these specific instructions to all our patients. Thank you for watching!
I use hydrogen peroxide.
