All-on-X Implant-Supported Dentures in Evansville, IN

Living with multiple lost teeth causes challenges in several ways. Eating and chewing can become difficult and even painful. Smiling, talking, and interacting with other people may cause you to feel self-conscious due to the gaps in your smile. Missing teeth also impact your dental health.

The good news is that implant-supported dentures can restore the function and aesthetics you had before tooth loss, and Dr. Adam can help with all-on-x dental implants.

What Is All-on-X?

All-on-x refers to the number of implants Dr. Adam uses to support your dental implants, which could range from two to six depending on the patient's unique needs.

During an all-on-x procedure using 3-D imaging, Dr. Adam strategically places the appropriate number of implants needed for optimal support of your partial or full denture. Then he designs your new appliance to snap into the implants, securely holding the denture in place. All-on-x treatment allows us to provide teeth in a day, so you'll never have to feel embarrassed or hide your smile. 

All-on-x implant dentures in Evansville also provide superior support for denture wearers so they don't endure the movement or slippage during eating, talking, or laughing, often accompanying wearing a denture.

Dental implants also offer the additional benefit of keeping your jawbone healthy and stimulated so you don't experience the bone loss that goes along with wearing a traditional denture. This means that your implant denture delivers exceptional longevity and could last you for a lifetime.

Unfortunately, when you lose a tooth, it often opens the door for more tooth loss. This is because when you lose a tooth, you also lose its root, causing your bone to deteriorate with nothing left to support. Bone loss can result in a lack of support for neighboring teeth, which can cause them to become compromised. 

If you don't replace a missing tooth, surrounding teeth will also move into the open space. Tooth movement can increase your risk of developing problems like gum disease, tooth decay, and fractures. 

Restoring your smile also boosts your self-esteem and confidence, which can improve your interactions with other people.

Who Is a Candidate for All-on-X?

If you've been living with multiple missing or compromised teeth or an ill-fitting denture, implant-supported dentures may be an ideal solution. Booking an evaluation with Dr. Adam is the first step in determining the right treatment for your smile and dental health.

During that appointment, Dr. Adam will take photos, x-rays, and 3-D images of your teeth and jawbone to determine your treatment needs. He'll work with you to craft the best treatment scenario to achieve your goals and desires for your smile and dental health.
