Description
All-on-X treatment uses a custom number of implants to anchor a full-arch denture directly to your jawbone. This solution provides improved comfort, security, taste, and speech when compared to traditional dentures. Many full mouth reconstruction patients are candidates for All-on-X, and Dr. Han can determine if this solution is right for you during a consultation.

All-on-X procedure became really popular
because All-on-four,
00:00:11.800 --> 00:00:14.433
meaning involving four implants,
was a good option.
00:00:14.880 --> 00:00:17.700
But four implants
are minimal number of implants
00:00:17.767 --> 00:00:19.933
that can actually hold your full arch,
00:00:20.000 --> 00:00:23.933
meaning multiple teeth in one arch,
maxilla or mandible.
00:00:24.040 --> 00:00:28.633
All-on-X treatment will provide anchorage
for your conventional dentures.
00:00:28.960 --> 00:00:34.014
The denture itself that our
previous generations have been using a lot
00:00:34.080 --> 00:00:37.833
before the implant was very available,
it's very removable.
00:00:38.760 --> 00:00:43.233
All-on-X procedure, the denture itself
will be fixed and doesn't come out.
00:00:43.560 --> 00:00:46.733
On top of it, especially on the top
denture on All-on-X,
00:00:46.960 --> 00:00:48.933
you have no roof of the mouth,
00:00:49.000 --> 00:00:52.100
meaning you have no coverage
to cover the roof of the mouth
00:00:52.200 --> 00:00:54.067
where you'll be sensing
a lot of temperature
00:00:54.167 --> 00:00:56.033
and texture of your food.
00:00:58.400 --> 00:01:02.467
Compared to conventional dentures,
All-on-X denture itself will provide
00:01:02.533 --> 00:01:04.933
much better comfort,
much more retention,
00:01:05.033 --> 00:01:08.667
and it will actually provide much
better speech because it's much thinner.
00:01:08.900 --> 00:01:12.814
Also it has a lot of open
to your natural anatomy,
00:01:12.880 --> 00:01:17.000
just like gingiva and roof of the mouth,
you have a much better taste of food.
00:01:17.160 --> 00:01:20.300
Most patients who's looking
for full mouth reconstruction
00:01:20.367 --> 00:01:22.267
will be a good candidate for All-on-X.
00:01:22.440 --> 00:01:26.333
The final prosthesis
you have after the All-on-X
00:01:26.467 --> 00:01:29.267
should look as natural as it can be.
00:01:29.400 --> 00:01:30.867
The All-on-X procedure
00:01:30.933 --> 00:01:33.467
might only take 3-4 months
to start to finish.
00:01:33.640 --> 00:01:37.600
Beauty is, you'll be going home after
spending about 7-8 hours with me,
00:01:37.920 --> 00:01:41.480
but you have no other teeth
that's been bothering you anymore,
00:01:41.760 --> 00:01:44.967
and you have a brand new dental implant
and brand new teeth
00:01:45.067 --> 00:01:46.810
that you'll be going home and enjoying.
00:01:46.880 --> 00:01:51.800
We want to make sure you enjoy your smile,
and your chewing, and your speaking,
