All-on-X: A fixed, radiant smile!

The All-on-X treatment: a fixed bridge on implants

The All-on-X treatment is an innovative and durable solution for people who are missing all their teeth in the upper or lower jaw. This method uses 4 to 6 implants that are strategically placed in the jaw. The implants serve as a solid foundation on which a complete, fixed bridge is attached. This offers a fixed and aesthetic replacement for traditional dentures.

How does the All-on-X treatment work?

With the All-on-X treatment, the bridge is placed on (four) or six implants. The six implants provide a larger support surface and a stable foundation, which is particularly beneficial for people with a slightly weaker jaw or higher chewing force.

The treatment usually proceeds in the following steps:

  1. Surgical procedure: The implants are placed in the jaw under local anesthesia. This is a painless procedure and takes approximately 60 to 90 minutes.

  2. Healing: The implants must fuse with the jawbone. This process, also known as osseointegration, takes several months. During this time, you will have a temporary bridge on these implants or wear the dentures you already had.

  3. Placement of the bridge: Once the implants have fully integrated, the final fixed bridge is attached to the implants.

The All-on-X treatment has significant advantages over traditional dentures:

  • Fixed and comfortable: The fixed bridge feels like your own teeth and offers comfort and stability when eating and speaking.

  • Improved chewing function: You can chew powerfully and without worry again.

  • Preservation of the jawbone: The implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing bone loss. This also helps to preserve the shape of your face.

  • Durable: An All-on-X construction is a durable solution, provided it is properly maintained.

  • Aesthetic: The teeth of the bridge look like natural teeth, which boosts your self-confidence.
