All-on-X Dental Implants

All-on-X (often referred to as All-on-4 or All-on-6, depending on the number of implants required) offers relief for patients who are missing, or are in the process of losing, multiple teeth. When someone undergoes the All-on-X procedure, they're receiving a full arch replacement of their upper or lower set of teeth. Each full arch prosthetic is custom designed and is supported by 4 to 6 dental implants that are strategically placed to add as much stability to the new set of teeth as possible.

Done With the Cycle of Dental Work?

For many patients, All-on-X offers a fresh reset after dental problems have progressed over time. Whether you haven't been to the dentist in years, or you're dealing with widespread decay or gum disease, All-on-X can simplify care. Rather than trying to patch many teeth that have a questionable prognosis through a lengthy series of fillings, root canals, and crowns, the entire arch is replaced, making for a much more direct and streamlined solution. Therefore, function and appearance are restored in a much faster and cost effective way, and patients are able to move forward with their lives more comfortably and confidently.

How All-on-X Could Benefit You

With All-on-X, one procedure can give you a brand new smile that not only looks great, but also restores critical function, allowing you to chew comfortably, speak clearly, and live without ongoing dental pain and instability.

Your Personalized Plan

If you're experiencing widespread tooth loss, are frustrated with the looseness and instability of your dentures, or need extensive dental work across an entire arch then All-on-X may be the simple, elegant, and long-term solution you're looking for.

Who's it For?

Comfort Options

Your comfort is our top priority. We offer multiple sedation options including IV sedation, where most patients will have little to no memory of the procedure. We also use local anesthesia to ensure you are pain-free during the surgery. Through minimally invasive techniques and thoughtful medication management we are also able to support a smoother recovery and decrease pain.

Recovery Snapshot

Most patients find that post-procedure discomfort is well tolerated on non-narcotic medication. Most pain resolves in a week and patients go back to eating immediately after the procedure, although some alteration in diet is required for the preliminary healing period.

Next Step

Book an evaluation. We'll use advanced 3D cone beam imaging and intraoral scans to take images of your bone and teeth and get to understand you and your goals, so we can determine if this approach is appropriate for you before designing a treatment plan tailored specifically to your needs.

Why Patients Choose All-on-X?

Missing or failing teeth can be an uncomfortable process that can impact a person’s life dramatically. Eating becomes more difficult, their confidence can take a hit, and the nagging discomfort in their mouth can lead to a lot of frustration. On top of these short term problems, the long term effects of not fixing the issue in a timely manner can be detrimental to future oral health. This is because over time, the jawbone that once supported the person’s teeth can begin to shrink. This can make dentures less stable and make any future treatments more complex.

All-on-X dental implants are revolutionary for those who need multiple teeth replaced, because instead of repairing questionable or hopeless teeth one by one, the entire upper or lower teeth can be replaced using only 4 to 6 strategically placed anchors that secure a full prosthetic arch. One of the reasons this technology is so valuable is because the implants are able to be positioned in ways that take advantage of where your bone is most dense. This creates a more stable and secure hold. For example, in certain areas where your jaw bone is thinner or inadequate, the implants can be angled. This can potentially reduce the need for additional bone grafting depending on your anatomy.

Why Choose All-on-X Instead of Traditional Dental Implants?

Traditional dental implants, where you replace teeth individually, are ideal for somebody who is missing one or a few teeth with the rest of their teeth intact and in good condition. All-on-X is a better fit when there’s a lot of teeth in an arch that need to be replaced and it makes sense to have one cohesive replacement that restores stability, functionality and comfort in one fell swoop.   

It’s much more cost effective to do an All-on-X procedure than pay for individual implants and crowns for each tooth
