6 Things your Dentist May NOT tell you about All on 4 or a Full Set of Dental Implants

All on 4 Full mouth dental implants are super expensive, and a big decision for a lot of people. Most dental clinics will market it like the best treatment in the world, and although it massively improves the lives for the vast majority of patients, there are some things that are worth noting about the experience, so that you are not disappointed when you finally have this treatment.

As always, if you would like to see me for consultations or see the other stuff I put out on Social Media, you can do this by following this link:

I’ve recently had all on 6 both arches. I’m very happy with outcome but this is a very honest assessment of what to expect. For me it is life changing cosmetically but they are prosthetics which will never replicate the feel of natural teeth. Well done sir for telling it as it is as opposed to the normal sales talk we get from just about every other source. Bottom line is I would do it again in a heartbeat but be aware it is not without issues

This is my first time with temporary upper denture plate till my permanent denture is completed. Every step you explained was exactly what I went through. I hated every moment. I have an overbite so the top denture did hang over my bottom teeth. They were too wide for my mouth and sat well back inside the back of my gums. I couldn't breathe, speak, eat or swallow properly. I cried. It was awful. I had to go back to the denture clinic to get them adjusted. After that episode, it was comfortable enough to chew and my dentist told me to keep wearing them so I get use to them. It's a great idea to have that conversation with one's dentist. My permanent denture is done in stages which I'm grateful for because any issues along the way are dealt with immediately. He's doing a terrific job to date. Just like you explaining the unexpected things that can happen. Thank you for your expertise advice and explanations. It helped me understand my situation better. From Australia Have subscribed

I went to Turkey 2021 and had all on 4 top and bottom, went back again 2022 to have my Zirconium Crowns, Yes Zirconium crowns !. Total cost including both flights and a gorgeous hotel for 3 weeks actually everything included came under £9000 . I had a lovely holiday as well. I'm so pleased with them honestly it's changed my life beautiful smile and confidence .
I was quoted here in the UK £ 35, 000 and that's not with Zirconium teeth which are the best .

What more can i say.

Wish could afford this guy super kind n explaining

As someone who is getting ready to probably have this done I want to thank you for this video it's very informative. In fact I consider it to be a must watch for anyone who is thinking of all on four procedure

[halo]

I am 9 days post surgery from my all on four treatments. I can’t thank you enough for this video! Watching this has answered so many concerns/questions I had.

[z-tech]

Thank you Dr. Gurs, your information was very simple to non-doctors, understandable, relaxed, and 100% clear. I'm before the "big process", and now I try to understand and ACCEPT it in my mind the loss of my OWN teeth, and the replacement also.

[Porch.monkey.slayer]

I went to Bulgaria. It cost €7400 for 3 on 6 top and all on 6 bottom. I didnt need extra tions as Ive been toothless for years.
This was not a quick fix, there were three trips over 9 months but this cost included;

All xrays and 3D scans, meds, temps ( fixed ), perms, lifetime warranty and aftercare.
I was also given a implant passport.
The flights cost me €28 one way and €23 the other. With a hotel (4*) for 6 nights 450BGN
That added up STILL will not come to the cist of one implant in the UK.

I confess that I just stumbled on this by accident - fortunately, I have my gnashers and they're in good shape, I had no idea what this procedure was. But I have to say that I found your talk fascinating, and so well explained, authoritative and reassuring. Your patients are fortunate to have you sir!

[terie.]

Thanks Doc for this video. I decided to pass on implants and all on 4s partly because of your videos. My dentist was able to use 7 good teeth on the bottom to anchor a beautiful porcelin bridge. Keeping this clean takes a ot of time and commitment-but no more than if it was all on 4. That is where i decided to spend my $. My dentist had to make them long and eventually there will be a gap between my gums and the pontics.This would look horrible on the top but unless i am walking around with my lower lip pulled down-, it will be fine. I was ok with getting a good fitting conventional upper denture if my bottom teeth were solid. Even with the challenges and all the pros and cons-This was the best workable solution for me. Not everyone needs or wants a Ferarri. Sometimes a nice Toyota Camry with some extras is enough. I appreciate what you say about managing expectations. That sure helped me make my decision. My dentist and oral surgeon were wonderful. But i went to see several- to hear their ideas before i found a team that fit. Spending a few hundred dollars for consultations was well worth it to find what I needed. .Thanks for all your videos.

Very helpful to make me better understand the details as I happen to be in the phase of my upper jaw with the temporary in preparation for the final "All on 4" implant. I had the lower jaw done about 4 years ago. An important reason of having a Full Set of Dental Implants was my concern for my health to embark on this complex "project" given the bad state of my original teeth and gums. My teeth were falling and gums in bad state. Thank you Dr Gurs Sehmi for an excellent presentation.

[royhill]

I just finished my trip back from Cancun, Mexico Dentics full mouth all on 6. Don't go by yourself, my mistake. I could not be happier except for a little lisp I am working through the temporaries. Please have it done. It is life changing.

[Quickened]

I've been looking for this information for five years! Now I know, thanks!

[dougd]

Thank you Dr. Sehmi, over the past few years you have been a brilliant educator for people like me. Conservative, rational explanations are assuring as we make "educated decisions". Two years ago, almost, I was fortunate to get all-on-4 on upper and lower. I chose nano-ceramic for weight and durability. Where the process went unexpectedly out-of-this-world was when they revealed a new smile. What I'm talking about is I've always had a very narrow hard palate, so narrow my thumb didn't fit up there. I had an over bite and looked like I had a weak chin. With the new "choppers" I had a perfect bite, I can actually chew corn off of the cob, before I had to scrape my bottom teeth up. So I expected my original bite to be replicated as you infer here, but today I couldn't be happier. When I was young they wanted to break my jaw and rewire it, that was a no.

I really love the way he explained the procedures in details and touches on all areas for ever individual needs, just wish I can afford him

[tamratrigg]

I am struggling with this problem. It is significant problems. Haven't had solid food in 2 years. Can't speak, they immediately made me look ten years older. I do not produce saliva. It has caused a large number of health issues. Five sets, all have 5 have broken. My lips are scarred, my jaws are completely out of line. I cannot sing anymore. No compassion to repair the damage that ruined my life. The specialists I have seen have all said the implants were placed wrong, my jaws were broken during the process, my lips were intentionally cut and I
Couldn't work for 7 months after the procedure. However, they all wanted to charge me the same amount t as the original implants cost, over 100k.
What a shame that they are more concerned about the money than the person.

[selakery]

They should have all patients watch this that ate getting this procedure done. It'll help with honest expectations.

[darrensiew]

My country malaysia has very good dentist and dental care services. The best part is all of them speaks English., i highly recommend coming to Malaysia for dental services. Its cheap and very professional and mature.

[Splituk]

Very Interesting. This is something I've been trying to research for the past few days, and this is by far the most informative.

check out done in one in Boca Raton florida. Four days from now im getting my tops and bottom extracted. They put in the implants same day. The second day you use 3 d printed temporaries, and you make changes for where they look. The day after that you try new 3D printed teeth and make more changes if necessary. Tops and bottoms cost $33, 000. They cover everything. If you need all on sixes it's included. The standard is all on four. Everything is included. Bone grafting, is included if needed for instance. 5-year warranty on anything that makes you not want to smile. Once a year cleanings for a few years, then only every few years after that. They don't do ivy sedation, they do oral and let you take another pill if you need. They are unbelievably nice, and I felt no pressure or judgment. The consultation is free. You get your final teeth on day 7 or 8. The most expensive zirconia teeth that you can buy. On top of that it's much cheaper than most dental offices. I can't recommend them enough
