I assumed he would just make me another implant bridge. My dentist put in an implant denture. It is awful. I went back and said I would wear the cracked bridge instead of this. He said the change he made is irreversible. I just sat there sobbing. He said he would make another replacement and would not charge me more. I just could not stop crying, I didn’t understand that this could even happen. Is there a way that what he did is irreversible? He did not cut my gums at all. Is there anything I can do.

Without x-rays or seeing you we can only give you a large range of $25,000 - 70,000. If you have dental insurance that covers either the implants and/or the bridges, you’d get your annual maximum from them. Typically $1,000-2,500 total. In some cases, when the treatment spans over two different calendar years, sometimes you can get two years worth of insurance benefits.

Hello, Dr. thank you for sharing this valuable educational video. I have a question regarding implant bridges. Do you extract all the teeth before placing the bridge, or do you prepare the existing teeth and create a single piece implant bridge? I would greatly appreciate your insights on this topic. Thank you

@davidmcfadden878

Жыл бұрын

Every patient is different. But, we do NOT extract all the teeth. We extract selective teeth, place implants and measure their tightness. If the first four implants are tight (high insertion torque) we extract a couple more, place two more implants and measure their torque. For low torque, we leave teeth in to serve as abutments for the temporary teeth for 2.5 months, come back and extract the remaining teeth, place additional implants then convert the temporary to all implants. I call this a "strategic" approach.

That all depends on the status of those teeth and the bone. Most patients with some teeth can have implant bridges and SHOULD NOT consider All-on-4 treatment for all the reasons I state in my videos. Good teeth should be saved until there are so few good teeth that they "get in the way" of the reconstruction.

Question: How do implant bridges differ from the 3-on-6 process? There seems to be a closer tie between the two than implant bridges and All-on-4.

@mcfaddendentalimplantcenter

8 ай бұрын

Implant bridges and 3 on 6, (given the 3 on 6 is done with NO PINK porcelain or zirconium,) are the same. The difference being that one is a single unit and the others is 3 units. The biggest difference we are trying to show here is not necessarily whether the prosthesis is a single unit full arch bridge or three units, which esthetically look the same, but focusing on the fact that the pink tissues are the patient’s own gum tissues.

What is required for implant bridges if all upper teeth have been extracted?? Do All-on-4 screw in dentures always sit on stilts which causes the implants to be visable? When they show the denture it does not look like there is an intermediary piece between the denture and the ridge - it looks like it sits directly on the ridge. Please advise

In the example of the implant bridge I see that there is no fake gum, but what are the other differences that make them a bridge and not a denture on stilts as it were? Is it not one long continuous piece like the all on four? Also, how does the gum know to grow around the prosthesis in that way? Is there any risk of the gum receding exposing the implants? Do you know how much the cost varies by market? I am in VA but being forced to move unfortunately to a very expensive area of CA that I can't afford-I am disabled and dependent and live with my parents and very scared of all the high costs of everything, but thinking this will impact my mouth restoration as well.

Too many differences to explain here. It's in the video link above.

A couple of questions, Doctor: Did the patient at 7:27 have severe periodontitis? Why would she need to have here upper teeth extracted, if they could have been restored with crowns or veneers ? And , in the case of a patient with significant ridge loss, how would an all porcelain implant bridge look like? Wouldn't the teeth look extra long in order to meet the gums?

@mcfaddendentalimplantcenter

Жыл бұрын

The main difference is placing implants to avoid angled abutments. We add pink zirconium if the patient has pre-existing bone loss. I do not remove bone in the maxilla and only when absolutely necessary in the mandible. Second big factor is creating a prosthesis that is convex and not concave. I hope this answers your question.

If there is lack of bone and you wanted 3 on 6 or fixed bridge, i assume they're essentially the same, then can a bone graft be carried out to solve this problem?

@davidmcfadden878

We can add width (thickness) but not height so there may be pink at the top of the prosthesis. Similar to 3 on 6 but a better version.

The prosthesis could be remade to fit more tightly against the gums, closing the open space. OR- *If the prosthesis is made of acrylic, (this would be the easiest, as instead of remaking it,) they could modify the underside of it by adding more acrylic to fill in the open space where the air is flowing now and causing the lisp. I actually have photos of this in one of my other videos. It’s on the “Buyer Beware: Problems with All-On-4” video. I had a patient for whom I modified the underside of his prosthesis because of food entrapment and not being able to properly clean between the prosthesis and gums. (Different symptom of the same problem as your partner.) Here's a link to the video. kzread.info/dash/bejne/o5aitJuHZKidXbw.html Fast forward to the 20:00 point to see what I mean by MODIFYING the underside. I hope this helps.

But surely there are som people in which the all on 4 is a viable option if not preferred option…

Hello Dr. McFadden, I had all on 4 done 3 years ago and I am very disappointed with the outcome (especially for 45 K). Could I have this converted to implant bridges? I have at least 1 angled implant resulting in a fairly large amount of acrylic on my palate and floor of mouth. My speech is terrible. I am at my wits end about this.

I'm turning 65 and starting Medicare soon. Can I buy a Dental Plan that would cover a small portion of your procedures like extractions, bone graft (if needed) ? And if so which insurer is the best one to go with? Thank you !

@mcfaddendentalimplantcenter

Жыл бұрын

Unfortunately, I cannot advise you on that. It’s a tricky thing to win with as a private consumer. After all: The insurance companies are in the business of making money. And that ultimately means collecting more in premiums than they spend paying claims. The bigger plans, through large employer sponsored group policies (think IBM, for example) tend to have better coverage and are useful because you only pay part of the full premium and the employer pays the rest. Additionally, from our experience, private policies very often have waiting periods before “major” services are covered. You may find one to pay for the extractions during the first year, but not the bone grafts, and but the extractions are a minimal part of the cost… and it’s usually a wash, if not a loss. And the yearly maximums they pay haven’t changed much since the 79s. Most still limit com overage to $1,000/year, and then nickel and dime you to death on what they will pay for. If you do shop around, I’d advise you ask about “waiting periods,” for certain services and “missing tooth clauses”. (Meaning if a tooth was missing when you started coverage, there is no coverage at all for that tooth/those teeth, even as part of a bridge or other treatment that ultimately replaces it). And some, (like HMOs) dictate who you can go to and allow no coverage out of network. I forty’s my, it’s just not like medical coverage. It’s hard to come out on top :(

Amazing

Thank you for the great explanation! This implant bridge looks so beautiful resting against the natural tissue. How many implants need to be placed for this type of bridge? What does the x-ray look like underneath? Over time, will the tissue eventually shrink away from the bridge causing a gap?

@mcfaddendentalimplantcenter

Жыл бұрын

Typically, 6 or 8 implants. The post-op x-ray showed good bone levels around the implants. With proper cleaning and maintenance, the tissues will remain where they are after implant healing and final bridge placement (given that this has not been rushed, and the tissues were given ample time to fully heal prior to bridge fabrication and insertion). WITHOUT proper cleaning and maintenance, the tissues and bone can shrink, just like around natural teeth, so good homecare maintenance is VERY important!

That looks great but not for most people affordable probably about the same as clear choice Is sad that is all about money 😞

It is. But. At least there is a better option for about the same cost. For those that can choose.

@@mcfaddendentalimplantcenter Thank you for the reply I called your office already but now I know I will not be able to afford it .I am female veteran and is impossible to manage this kind of cost Although the implant technology have been around for over 15 years

Well that was a nice explanation. However with all you people you never quote the price of the work done. I know everyone is different. But it would be nice to know how much the patients were charged. Maybe even a ballpark figure will do. So that a proper determination can be made theoretically for each individual that is watching .

$30,000-$60,000

So glad I didn’t do all on 4 after all. I knew they was denture just wouldn’t like them at the end

Well, I guess when you shell out near $50,000 for the full show here, you get what you pay for.

How is a job like the good one run?

@@joneich1591 They ARE clearly the better option. The cost would depend on a number of various factors. If you would like me to try to give you an estimate, you can contact my office at 214- 956-9100 and the girls at the front desk will give you instructions on how to get information to me. I will need to look at a current panoramic x-ray at the very least. As far as financing: There are financing options available. You can read about some of the ones we've worked with on my website at: www.dentalimplantcenter.com/blog/payment-plans-financing-options/ or speak with Staci at my office if you call to get instructions on how to get a current panoramic emailed to me to review. She's great at helping patients get the best financing options available to them.

You didn’t really explain the differences other than saying lip retracted on all on 4 looks like poop, but you didn’t explain at all how the bridge is placed in. Quite deceiving

No deception, at all. You might want to rewatch this video or view some of our others. Implant bridges are screw retained bridges that do not require bone reduction. The tissues are maintained/ shaped by the temporaries and supported by the final bridges. Happy to answer more questions after you've done some more digging.

@@davidmcfadden7927 ugh, my autocorrect turned intriguing to deceiving. I’m early on in my journey and your video scared the crap out of me from getting the all on 4. I’m very intrigued for sure about how to get great teeth without angled implants etc.

You could call it "beauty and the beast" in comparison. The All on 4 look like overpriced, morphed dentures but with lots of metal showing. A monstrous outcome. I'd be mortified to end up going into this treatment plan , only to have it look like this. When I think about the whole point is to return the mouth to a healthy, and aesthetically pleasing state... this would not be it. Isn't the entire goal to save bone and tissue as well as prevent further loss? When I first saw a photo of the bone that's removed, it sickened me. I'm desperately clinging on to what little I have left, fighting a losing battle and health suffering as a result. So many of my dental issues have been caused by poor dentistry and since watching the first videos from this clinic I have had a tooth literally drop out of my mouth. It was a crown placed on a root canal that had been repaired a couple years ago. Inwas aware of the decay but what I found was much more. The entire center was filled with cotton gauze, so only a thin shell was bonded to the root canal. With ongoing irreparable decay, I surely didn't need to see what was involved in this $1500 repair. May not sound like a lot of money but for someone whose disabled, it's money I could ill afford to waste. Why dental implant bridges aren't the standard in tooth replacement is beyond me

Have you seen the "Lips Retracted Dental Photography" video? I am glad so many people are "getting it", now. The contrasting outcomes are so obvious! I wish more people would thoroughly research the subject. Thank you for commenting. -DM

@@davidmcfadden878 I have indeed. I was convinced from your first, longer video. Being ultra sensitive to any excessive bacteria due to an extreme case of oral Lichen Planus, as soon as I saw the flawed concave design of All on 4, I saw what a disaster waiting to happen it would be based on 1 single flaw. Then the angled abutments. All this awkward, hard to clean space these dentures on stilts, why? Just aesthetically, smile a little too wide exposes a Frankenstein mess. I had not realized a patient could very well end up having to pop them out and use store bought products to temporarily cement them and hope for the best!!!! Dentures would be more preferable for the cost and results I won't ever be able to afford, what clearly are the only safe and healthy back teeth restoration. Once they're pulled, I'm forced to live without any due to this cursed lichen planus and the restrictions of a disability income. Yet I will continue to promote the only same dental restoration on the market today. I'm sure as time goes by, little tweeks will only improve implant bridges. I wish dentists would stop promoting permanent bridges that destroy healthy teeth and are doomed to failure as cement loosens and those natural teeth break down. Mine suggested it as a more affordable option but alarm bells went off with just some basic research. Hard to treat Lichen Planus impacts the health as it limits your diet. As a very young looking 57 year old woman, as I lose first one molar, then another....to see the cheeks start to hollow out robs you of your confidence. I've already retreated somewhat. I see what I'll look like with the rest pulled and despite decay.....I've delayed extractions. Both for vanity and to enjoy eating solid food while I still can. Keep promoting this healthy approach to dental restoration. Your videos are well presented and relatively easy for people to understand. An informed patient is best able to advocate for their health and realize that over the long-run, costs will be less
