Just in time to halt my progression toward receiving all on 4 upper and lower arch implants. I have so perplexed and relentless in gaining knowledge by reviewing information about this dental treatment. FINALLY I discovered stunningly truthful presentations by Dr. McFadden. I am relieved and released. I will call the implant center and loan provider tomorrow to submit notice of my cancellation. Good night!

Hi Dr I am dental technician in Dallas Texas. First I would like to thank you for taking the time to make videos, I've watched all of your videos, they are very informative, I wish I could attend any of your presentations if you do any, even if they are over my head, I've been a dental technician for 19 years (ceramist) and now working with all on 4-6 and pink tissue, for sure the layer bridges look better than an all on 4-6 monolithic or crown bar all on 4-6 but I feel that this cases are more functional than esthetic and layering one of them might compromise the strength of it, and the reduction of bone, well that is just crazy, please keep those videos coming it had been a while since you had one more than 10 minutes, thank you.

Great clear explanation, precise and concise and from a dentists own personnel viewpoint and insight. Understanding via knowledge is the only key for a higher percentage success rate.

It’s just an amazing time to be alive, how they used to make dentures out of wood, to being this close to natural teeth, just amazing and so thankful we have this level of medicine for everything our bodies need. Fantastic video!!!

Hi, Dr McFadden, So I checked out some implant dentists in Brighton, UK, where I live. They quote 'from $40, 000'...so I am just wondering if you can quote a similarly rough figure to see if I have enough money to come out to Dallas? Basically dentistry is still a bit of a Wild West scenario, with many not very ethical, not very skilled implant dentists offering substandard care. But for your videos I too would have gone down the 'All on Four' route, which is the standard offering in Brighton, [and indeed in London]. Judging by your videos I imagine you are swamped by people from all over the US [and indeed the world] trying to find your level of skill, ethics and knowledge where they live-which must be rather frustrating!
Thanks for all your informative videos, setting out a standard of care which is outstanding.
Cheers,
Rosemary Rimmer-Clay

Hello doctor, quick Q: Can all on 4 be transformed to implant bridges? Many people don't hear all/best option unfortunately. Thank you for your content.

[byzman]

Excellent it changed my mind about implants

[JTHAMMER]

I’m a dentist interested in learning more of this technique a workflow. Do you offer classes? Or do you have classes you refer other doctors to for this? Thanks

[codyfowler]

i apologize if this has been answered already but i was wondering if something like the implant bridges are possible further down the road if i were to have all my teeth pulled and regular dentures made for the moment. i have had terrible teeth most of my life since i was really little and at 28 im considering anything. at 14 and 18 i was told dentures were my future there was no way to save my teeth but they could try and help but im at a crossroads. thank you for your time reading this and the very informative video!

A couple of questions. 1. What is the failure rate? 2. Can I send my Ct scan to your office to get an assessment to see if I’m a good candidate. I have a complicated situation where I have scarring and chronic infection, so I need that removed and bone grafting.

Wish you are locate in Orange County, CA. Can you advice any center in Orange County, CA

[caseslearningtube]

Can you please answer the dentists who have ask about classes & teaching this technique?

Im curious why they don’t know though, is this not taught in dental school?

[frankagas]

do you get bone loss having Implant Bridges?

[Ashley-tlkz]

Where are you located ? I will fly to you if I have too. I went to my consolation yesterday and I was not happy at the results I saw. The teeth looked absolutely fabulous but he kept skipping the pictures of the full mouth open pictures until I made him stop show me all the pictures and told him about this video. He then explained that you have to qualify for this type of implant..he said something about f1 f2 f3 and so on, he said if the patient doesn't have enough bone they can't get the implants directly on the gums. I was not comfortable with the explanation and I don't plan on going back. So I'm intrested in knowing where your located and if his explanation is true ?

[hotrodlincoln]

Great I'm needing a full top and bottom implants. How much would it cost me for the full bridge top and bottom
