What Is All-on-X?

All-on-X is a full-arch dental implant solution designed to replace most or all teeth in an upper or lower arch.

Several implants are placed in strategic locations in the jaw and used to support one complete set of replacement teeth. Unlike traditional dentures, the restoration is designed to remain fixed in place.

All-on-X may be an option for patients with:

Most or all teeth missing
Multiple severely damaged or failing teeth
Loose or uncomfortable dentures
A desire for fixed replacement teeth

What Is Recovery Like?

Some swelling, soreness, and tenderness are normal after implant surgery.

Your recovery instructions may include:

Eating soft foods
Avoiding excessive pressure on the implants
Following your oral-hygiene instructions
Taking medications as directed
Attending follow-up appointments

Even if you receive provisional teeth immediately, your implants still need time to heal and integrate with the bone.

How Many Implants Do I Need?

Most All-on-X treatments use four to six implants per arch.

The exact number depends on your:

Bone volume and quality
Jaw anatomy
Bite
Remaining teeth
Overall oral health
Final restoration design

Your dentist will determine the appropriate number during your consultation.

Can I Get Teeth the Same Day?

In appropriate cases, provisional teeth may be attached on the day your implants are placed.

These temporary teeth allow you to have a functional smile while your implants heal and integrate with the jawbone.

Same-day provisional teeth aren't right for everyone. Implant stability, bone conditions, and your overall treatment plan determine whether immediate teeth are possible.

After healing, your provisional restoration is replaced or upgraded with your custom final full-arch restoration.

YOUR INITIAL CONSULTATION

Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation at our Plantation office. We evaluate your oral health, discuss your goals, and determine if All-on-X implants are the right solution for you.

All-on-X can be a good option when you need to replace an entire arch and want fixed, implant-supported teeth.


Traditional dentures are removable and do not require implants.


Individual implants are often better suited to patients missing only a few teeth rather than an entire arch.


Your dentist can help determine which approach fits your oral health, anatomy, and goals.

Are You a Candidate for All-on-X?

You may be a candidate if you have most or all teeth missing, multiple failing teeth, or difficulty with traditional dentures.

Bone loss, gum disease, smoking, certain medical conditions, and other factors can affect candidacy.

A consultation and appropriate imaging are needed to determine whether All-on-X is right for you.
