Step by Step
How the All-on-X Implant Procedure Works
Consultation and Planning
A thorough exam and imaging inform a precise, customized plan using digital on-X workflows for accuracy and efficiency.
Implant Placement
Implants are strategically positioned to maximize stability and support a full-arch restoration.
Provisional Teeth
In many cases, a provisional set of fixed teeth can be attached the same day so you leave with a complete smile.
