We are your All-On-4 Implant Expert in Dallas, TX
Teeth are so important to so many different facets of life, from eating to speaking to nonverbal communication. If you are missing more than one tooth, whether from accident or decay, it can be both a source of discomfort and embarrassment. At Johnson Oral Facial Surgery, we want to help you get the smile you deserve thanks to non-removable full-mouth implants, also called all on 4 or all on X. These dental implants will free you from the hassle and discomfort of dentures and they look and function just like your natural teeth, so no one will be able to tell the difference.
What does All-on-4 mean?
All-on-4 is a catch all phrase for full mouth dental implant reconstruction. This technique was originally published by Dr. Paulo Malo in 1998. He found that by strategically placing a minimum of 4 implants in the jaw, an entire arch of teeth could be successfully supported. This technique grew in popularity and so did the number of names that describe this procedure. The official name for this procedure is a full arch implant retained hybrid prosthesis. Other names include All-on-6, All-on-X, ONXX, Same Day Smile, Smile in a Box, Straumann Chrome Solutions, NSequence, TeethXpress, Clearchoice, Smileloc and many more.
Am I a candidate for full arch dental implants?
This procedure has revolutionized Dentistry. The days of wearing ill-fitting removable dentures, and fake looking teeth have passed. This procedure is for someone that currently doesn’t have any teeth, or someone whose teeth are failing. Let’s face it, no one wants to be in this position, but this solution can restore your smile, allowing to you eat almost anything and regain your confidence. With full mouth implants you can feel comfortable when speaking in public and enjoy eating at restaurants again.
Caution: Not all surgeries are the same. There is a significant difference in your results and experience depending on who you choose for your full mouth implants. This procedure in particular has been heavily exploited by companies taking advantage of patients in need of this service.
How much does full mouth implant solutions cost?
You get what you pay for. This procedure is expensive and complex. Some places will advertise lower pricing to entice patients. Beware of these services. Typically, this type of service costs anywhere from 25k to 35k per arch. Most of the expense of this procedure is the lab bill and cost of materials. So, if the surgical/all on 4 centers are advertising prices that are substantially lower than the average, one of three things are happening: 1. They are using discounted and inferior materials, such as, the implant brand, or surgical materials. 2. The lab involved is cutting corners or using cheap plastic for the prosthesis. 3. The “surgeon” might not be a board certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon, but a “general” dentist or gum specialist ( periodontist).

Benefits of Choosing Johnson Oral Surgery For Your All-On-4 Treatment
Johnson Oral Facial Surgery is a doctor owned and operated practice. What does this mean? It means that Dr. Johnson selects materials, labs, and implant brands based on research and results, providing you with the best care possible.

Dr. Johnson can work hand in hand with your existing Dentist
We use the latest advancements when caring for our patients. First, the ability to digitally plan and store patient’s data electronically. We virtually plan the surgery with our VSP software and 3d printers eliminating many variables, increasing precision, and decreasing the time of surgery. By saving the patients data digitally, we can make changes multiple times to the provisional without having to start over. Then when the patient is 100% satisfied, the file has been already saved and can be fabricated out of zirconia or any other desired material.
The other advantage of a digital workflow is the rapid turnaround time for results. Digital scanning allows us to capture data immediately and send it electronically to the lab which instantly receives the case. The lab designs the teeth with special dental software (a process that used to take over a week for a lab technician to wax the teeth individually).
the procedure is performed in our surgery center
A typical one jaw case takes about 2 hours. The position of the implants is captured using a special camera that uses photogrammetry to register the implants exact position. These files are merged with the preoperative plan and the teeth are milled that day. Delivery is the usually the next day. After 3 months of wearing your immediate temporary teeth, we can make changes per your recommendations and create your final teeth.
Life Changing Results
The results are truly life changing. Patients go from unable to enjoy the foods they want to eat regaining over 90% of their chewing strength making it possible to eat foods that would otherwise be impossible.
