All-on-X Implant Dentures
Are you missing or living with several compromised teeth? Do you wear a denture that’s uncomfortable or hard to eat, chew, and talk with? Did you know dental implants can support an upper or lower denture to provide stability and protect dental health?
All-on-x is a procedure Dr. Poff uses to support a denture by strategically placing two to six dental implants. The denture is designed to fit into the dental implants, holding it securely in place and eliminating the frustrating movement that often occurs during chewing, talking, and laughing.
An implant-supported denture is ideal for patients who want added support or stability for their dentures. The implants also protect the jawbone from the deterioration that occurs with tooth loss and removable denture wear.

The All-on-X Treatment Process
Here’s a breakdown of the treatment process at Poff Dental Associates when you choose all-on-x implant dentures for your smile.
Initial Evaluation
During this visit, Dr. Poff will collect information about your smile to determine the treatment procedures that will help you achieve your goals.
Treatment Plan
Dr. Poff reviews all the required procedures to make your dream smile a reality and works closely with you to ensure the best outcome.
Implant Placement
We place the dental implants during an in-patient surgical procedure, and some patients leave with a temporary prosthesis fixed to the implants.
Osseointegration
It takes three to six months for the implants to heal and integrate with your bone through a process called osseointegration.
Final Denture
Dr. Poff places your final denture, which is customized to enhance your unique skin tone and facial structure for a natural look.

Why Choose All-on-X Dentures in Bellevue?
While dentures are an excellent option for restoring multiple missing teeth, traditional removable dentures may not be a great choice for everyone because fit can be an issue. If they don’t fit properly, they may feel uncomfortable to wear, and chewing and eating comfortably becomes challenging.
Traditional removable dentures also contribute to bone loss, which occurs with root loss. The denture relies on suction to your jawbone for a secure fit, which can accelerate bone resorption.
Dental implants in Nashville keep the bone healthy and stimulated, providing better denture longevity. Implants also hold the denture securely in place, so there is no concern about movement during eating or talking.

How Is a Bone Graft Done?
Missing teeth impact our lives in several significant ways. Eating and chewing food comfortably can become a challenge, while talking and smiling may feel embarrassing due to gaps in your smile.
Dental implants in Bellevue are the gold standard in tooth replacement because they restore both your tooth and its root. However, they do require that you have enough healthy bone structure to support the dental implant successfully. If you didn't have enough bone structure due to periodontal (gum) disease, trauma, denture wear, or other reasons, you might've been told ...
