All-on-X Teeth Replacement in Doreen
Facing tooth loss can bring up a number of questions. How can I eat and smile again? What can I do to replace my missing teeth? How much will my new smile cost?
Many people turn to dentures to complete their smiles but find them awkward or embarrassing because they move and shift. At Doreen Dental Clinic, we offer another solution.
All-on-X Treatment Concept
All-on-X is a full-arch tooth replacement concept that uses a limited number of strategically placed dental implants to support a complete set of replacement teeth. In some cases, a temporary set of teeth may be placed on the same day as your implant procedure, depending on your individual needs and suitability.
Many patients find All-on-X to be a stable, long-term option for replacing missing teeth. Because All-on-X is anchored by dental implants, it may help you avoid the shifting and discomfort that can come with conventional dentures.
Benefits of Fixed Dentures with All-on-X
Eating healthy, delicious food is part of the enjoyment of life for most people, and sharing meals with family and frien
ds helps to create memories that last a lifetime.
With All-on-X, many patients enjoy the following benefits:
- Improved denture stability — Traditional dentures can sometimes move or shift, but All-on-X implants are designed to provide greater stability by securely supporting your denture.
- Eat and speak with greater comfort — Implant-supported dentures are designed to help improve function, which may make eating and speaking feel more natural and comfortable for many patients.
- Enjoy a wider variety of foods — For suitable patients, improved chewing function may make it easier to enjoy a broader range of foods and support better nutrition.
- Support for facial structure — All-on-X implants are designed to support your dentures, which may help maintain natural lip and cheek structure compared to missing teeth.
- Flexible payment options — For patients who qualify, a wide variety of payment options may be available to help make treatment more manageable. Our team can discuss available plans to find an approach that suits your needs.
How All-on-X Works
Your dentist at Doreen Dental Clinic will perform a full exam to determine your eligibility for dental implant treatment.
Once your dentist has a look at your medical history and performs your dental exam with digital x-rays and imaging, they will discuss how you would like your new smile to look. We aim to provide natural-looking results that complement your appearance and make you feel great about your smile.
Dental Implant Surgery
Your dentist will place the dental implants into your jawbone. Dental implants are small screws that mimic the tooth’s root. This is the foundation for your new smile and what gives your implant-retained denture stability.
Your New Smile
Once the dental implant surgery is complete, we will attach your new implant-retained denture and ensure a good fit. Your new smile may take some getting used to, but the more you speak and chew with your new teeth, the more natural it will feel. Your dentist will guide you through the process.
Regular Check-Ups
At Doreen Dental Clinic, we hope to help you achieve a healthy smile for a lifetime. Your dentist will regularly check your healing and make any adjustments necessary to ensure a comfortable and functional fit.
While you will have some dietary restrictions immediately following treatment, most patients look forward to a wider variety of food options in the future after healing is complete. Your dentist will go over the details with you, so you are fully informed.
