ALL-ON-X® Dental Implants in Washington DC

All-On-X® is a dental implant procedure that provides a solution for patients who have lost multiple teeth and require a full arch replacement.

What is All-On-X® Procedure?

The "X" in All-On-X refers to the number of dental implants used to support a full set of teeth in either the upper or lower jaw. The procedure involves the placement of a predetermined number of dental implants (usually four or more) strategically positioned in the jawbone to support a complete fixed bridge or denture. The term "All-On" indicates that the dental prosthesis replaces all the teeth on either the upper or lower arch, providing a comprehensive and stable restoration.

Benefits of The All-On-X® Treatment concept:

  1. Fixed, Stable Restoration:

    • Provides a permanent, fixed dental restoration that feels and functions like natural teeth.
    • Offers stability and eliminates issues of denture movement or slippage.
  2. Fewer Implants, Faster Treatment:

    • Requires fewer implants (usually four or more) compared to traditional methods, reducing surgery time and dental implants cost.
    • Expedited treatment timeline with immediate functionality, often allowing patients to receive a temporary prosthesis on the same day as implant placement.
  3. Bone Preservation:

    • Helps preserve bone density and prevent further bone loss by stimulating the jawbone, promoting long-term facial structure and aesthetics.
