An All-on-X procedure refers to the number of implants per arch. Dr. Kaeley may recommend four or six implants, depending on your oral health needs. This is fewer implants than used for other types of implant dentures. Having fewer implants placed in your jaw comes with numerous benefits:

  • Reduced Surgical Time - Using fewer implants means a shorter procedure time. You'll minimize the stress that sometimes occurs with longer surgeries. However, if you still have anxiety, you can ask us about our sedation options.
  • Minimized Recovery Period - With fewer implants to heal, your body can recover more quickly. You'll likely find that you can return to your normal routines sooner.
  • Lower Overall Cost - Sometimes the financial aspect of dental implants can be daunting. Fewer implants often mean a reduced treatment cost. This makes high-quality dental care more accessible without compromising on the results.
  • Preserved Bone Structure - Even though your periodontist places fewer implants, you still maintain healthy bone structure. It's crucial for preventing further bone loss, which can occur when your teeth are missing.

You can trust that your periodontist, Dr. Janice Kaeley, has the extensive experience and specialized training for this advanced procedure. With years of dedication to her field, she remains at the forefront of periodontal and implant dentistry. She also uses cutting-edge technology, such as 3-D imaging and computer-guided placement, for precise planning of your procedure and placement of your implants.
