What is the difference between All-on-4® and all-on-x?

Are you missing an entire upper or lower arch of teeth, but you don’t want traditional dentures because you’re afraid they will move around when you talk and eat or be uncomfortable? If so, you should consider making an appointment to speak to us about the All-on-4® or all-on-x dental procedures.

Let’s look at the differences between the two to help you make the best decision for your dental needs.

What Is All-on-4?

If you want stability and functionality with your new teeth, you might consider All-on-4. If you opt for All-on-4, we will replace “all” of your upper or lower arch of teeth by attaching them “on 4” dental implants. All-on-4 is a trademarked name for the treatment.

These four dental implants will secure your teeth and be comfortable and aesthetically pleasing.

What Is All-on-X?

The all-on-x treatment concept is similar to All-on-4 except that the “x” represents a number ranging from four to eight. Your dentist will decide the number of implants you need for your new prosthetic teeth. We can discuss your treatment plan when you visit our dental office.
