A new smile in one visit—under full sedation
All-on-X is a life-changing, full-mouth restoration that secures a complete arch of teeth on as few as 4–6 implants (“X” = the number of implants placed). At Vida Dental, your procedure is completed in one visit under full sedation with our board-certified anesthesiologist and Dr. Morhaim on the surgical team. You leave the same day with fixed provisional teeth—no removable denture period.

How it works (step-by-step)
Consult & 3D Planning
CBCT scan, digital impressions, bite analysis, smile design, and medical review.
Pre-Op Visit
Anesthesiologist clearance as needed; medication and day-of instructions.
Surgery Day (One Visit)
- Full sedation administered by our anesthesiologist
- Teeth removed (if needed) and implants placed (typically 4–6 per arch)
- Immediate, fixed provisional arch delivered before you go home
Healing & Check-Ins (8–12 weeks)
Osseointegration period with soft-diet guidance; brief follow-up visits.
Final Zirconia/Hybrid Teeth
After healing, we replace the provisional with your custom, final fixed arch.
What to expect the day of surgery
- You’re asleep (full sedation) and monitored continuously.
- Procedure time: typically 3–5 hours per arch.
- You go home the same day with fixed provisional teeth.
- Comfort plan: medications, ice, soft-diet guide, and a direct contact protocol for questions.
Recovery & care
Week 1–2: swelling/tenderness improves; stick to soft foods.
Weeks 3–8: gradual return to normal function as directed.
Home care: daily hygiene around implants; water flosser recommended.
In-office maintenance: professional cleanings and implant checks 3–4x/year (initially).
Candidacy & pre-op checklist
- Medical history and medication review (blood thinners, diabetes, etc.)
- Smoking cessation plan if applicable
- Recent extractions/infections addressed prior to surgery
- Commitment to hygiene and maintenance visits
What does “All-on-X” mean?
“X” is the number of implants (often 4–6) used to support a full arch of fixed teeth.
Will I be without teeth?
No. You leave surgery with fixed provisional teeth the same day.
Is full sedation safe?
Your anesthesia is provided and monitored by a board-certified anesthesiologist following medical guidelines and screening.
What if I’ve been told I don’t have enough bone?
3D planning often allows strategic implant placement; in some cases, grafting or alternative plans are discussed.
How long does it last?
With proper care and maintenance, implants can last many years. Final prostheses are designed for durability and can be serviced if needed.
What about cost and insurance?
Pricing depends on your case and materials (one arch vs. both, provisional + final). Many plans reimburse portions of surgical or prosthetic steps. We’ll provide a detailed treatment plan, submit for predetermination, and review payment options.
