All-on-X Dentistry

Transforming Smiles with All-on-X Dentistry

 

All-on-X dentistry represents a revolutionary approach to full-arch tooth replacement, offering patients a life-changing solution for missing teeth. This advanced technique combines dental implants with a custom-designed prosthesis to restore both the function and aesthetics of a natural smile.

 

What is All-on-X?

The term “All-on-X” refers to a method where a full arch of teeth is supported by a specific number of dental implants, typically four to six. Unlike traditional dentures, which rest on the gums and bone, the All-on-X system anchors the prosthesis to implants surgically placed in the jawbone. This ensures superior stability, comfort, and functionality.

The Benefits of All-on-X Dentistry

1. Enhanced Stability: Unlike removable dentures, All-on-X prosthetics do not shift or move, providing a secure and natural feel.
2. Immediate Results: Many patients can leave the clinic with a functional set of teeth on the same day as their implant surgery, thanks to advanced planning and techniques.
3. Bone Preservation: Dental implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing the bone loss commonly associated with missing teeth or traditional dentures.
4. Improved Quality of Life: Patients often report significant improvements in their ability to eat, speak, and smile confidently.
5. Long-Lasting Solution: With proper care, the All-on-X system can last for decades, making it a cost-effective investment in oral health.

 

The Procedure

The All-on-X process begins with a comprehensive consultation and assessment, including advanced 3D imaging to evaluate bone structure and available bone volume and to strategically plan implant placement.

During the procedure, implants are strategically positioned to maximize support and minimize the need for bone grafting (where possible). A temporary prosthesis is often attached the same day, referred to as ‘Immediate-Load Dental Implants’, followed by a final custom prosthesis after the implants fully integrate with the bone over 3-6 months.

 

Is All-on-X Right for You?

Ideal candidates for All-on-X include individuals with significant tooth loss or failing teeth who seek a permanent, fixed solution. A thorough evaluation by a dental professional will determine suitability based on bone health and overall oral condition.
