What are the benefits of All-On-X dental implants?
The number of dental implants used for All-On-X is tailored to each patients’ unique smile, health, jawbone density, and goals. All-On-X dental implants function, look, and feel like natural teeth. All-On-X dental implants are long-lasting, durable, and help maintain healthy jawbone density and prevent jawbone resorption over time. The process of placing All-On-X dental implants is less invasive than previous traditional dental implant methods such as dentures or dental bridges.
Traditional dental implant methods required the use of a singular dental implant and screw for each tooth being repaired. With All-On-X dental implants, oral surgeons now have the ability to use fewer dental implants, while replacing more teeth at once.

How Are All-On-X Dental Implants Different From All-On-4 & All-On-6 Dental Implants?
All-On-4, All-On-6, and All-On-X dental implants are minimally invasive, permanent tooth replacement solutions. These procedures are ideal for patients with missing, damaged, or decayed teeth, or those who have lost the majority of their teeth along their upper or lower jaw. All-On-4 dental implants place four anchorage screws into the gumline as the foundation for your future set of teeth. Similarly, All-On-6 dental implants utilize six anchorage screws for the same result. The two additional screws are beneficial for patients with mouth, or jawbone conditions that require additional support.
All-On-X dental implants differ from All-On-4 and All-On-6 dental implants as there is no specific or set number of dental implant screws used for this procedure. All-On-X dental implants implements a customized number of dental implant screws based on the patients’ needs and jawbone density. The specific approach of All-On-X provides oral surgeons the flexibility to determine a suitable number of dental implant screws, resulting in the most natural, realistic restoration to your smile.
What Should I Expect During My All-On-X Dental Implant Surgery?
Before undergoing your All-On-X dental implant surgery, any remaining broken or damaged teeth will be removed. Dr. Pashapour and his surgical team will place your customized number of dental implant screws, securing them to your gumline and into your jawbone. The dental implant screws now act as a root for your new teeth.
