All-on-X Dental Implants in Hampton, VA
What Are All-on-X Dental Implants?
All-on-X dental implants are a transformative solution for patients who are missing most or all of their teeth. Unlike traditional dentures that rest on the gums, All-on-X implants anchor a full arch of teeth securely to the jaw using just four or more strategically placed titanium implants.
At Hampton Oral & Facial Surgery, our All-on-X system provides permanent, natural-looking results—restoring both function and aesthetics. This technique is ideal for those seeking a long-term alternative to removable dentures or who have experienced bone loss in the jaw.
Benefits of the All-on-X Approach
All-on-X treatment combines surgical precision with advanced restorative techniques. It is designed to deliver immediate and lasting improvements in both quality of life and oral health.
Key benefits include:
- A full set of fixed teeth with as few as four implants
- Immediate function and aesthetics (teeth-in-a-day)
- Bone preservation and prevention of future bone loss
- Enhanced comfort with no slipping or clicking
- Easier maintenance compared to removable dentures
For many patients, the All-on-X procedure can be completed in a single visit following a thorough evaluation and planning process using 3D CT Scanning.
Who Is a Candidate?
All-on-X implants are ideal for patients who:
- Have multiple missing or failing teeth
- Are currently wearing dentures but want a permanent option
- Have experienced bone loss and may not qualify for traditional implants
- Want to improve their ability to chew, speak, and smile confidently
If you've been told you're not a candidate for dental implants due to low bone density, our bone grafting services may help prepare your jaw for successful All-on-X placement.
What to Expect from Treatment
Here’s a typical breakdown of the All-on-X process:
- Consultation and Imaging: We use advanced diagnostic tools, including 3D CT scanning, to assess bone structure and treatment viability.
- Implant Placement: On the day of surgery, four or more implants are placed at strategic angles for maximum support. In most cases, a temporary full arch is attached the same day.
- Healing and Final Restoration: Over several months, the implants integrate with the bone. Once healing is complete, your final custom prosthesis is placed for a permanent smile.
Throughout the process, we offer oral sedation, IV sedation, or general anesthesia to ensure patient comfort.
