Hey Doc, You speak with friendly authority. You instill trust. I'm new to this whole subject but 70 years old and need a road forward. I prefer to keep my health. I'm in good health but work to maintain it.

I really appreciate you trying to inform the public about these issues!
I do wonder how you can keep All on 4 implants clean?
Thanks!

Thank you for this informative video it's helping me to make a decision regarding getting implants. I do have a very good dentist and he does use the cbct scan

Awesome videos, pretty informative. I’ve recently had a bone graft and i ended up in your channel. Thank you for all the information and your experience.

If one must live with a couple missing teeth, is it possible to decrease or eliminate bone atrophy by chewing on a firm material which applies pressure to that gum/bone in that space ?

I recently had my teeth extracted and dental implants placed in both upper and lower jaw. The lower arch is very uncomfortable. It is stretching my skin and lower lip downward and it feels like something is pulling my lower inside of my lip down. And it has changed the way I look drastically. I had facial recognition on my phone and my phone can’t even recognize me. I can’t stand to look in the mirror. Is this a normal occurrence. And if so, I can’t tolerate the feeling. It literally almost sends me into a panic attack. Can this be fixed. I’m desperate and if not I just need them to take them out. Is this possible. Thank you for your time and these videos. You did an amazing job.

I’m from Sydney Australia 🇦🇺 I just wanted to ask, how long do I wait after my 1 front teeth 17:40 🦷extraction before I go to my periodontist for plan of a tooth implant? It’s been a week since my extraction and my dental clinic put a dental front tooth as for looks 😊 I don’t want to be seen ugly 😢
Thank you 🙏 in advance!

These videos are AWESOME! If you clench your teeth in your sleep, would a mouth guard work with implants?

Any recommendations for implant dentist in Houston Tx? I've seen two, the first is an maxillary chief surgeon claiming he does the most implants in the city but didn't even get a CBCT done, the second did an CBCT and told me my bone graft is too narrow to have a molar implant so recommend to place two narrow ones but how do I chew without support of a parallel upper tooth? Thank you for your honest information btw, Im sure you've helped tons of people in this path!

Is it possible to have an AO4 (with 4 Titanium Posts) and have 14Teeth on the Upper and Lower Arches vs 12?

[jfjerez]

Great Chanel. Thank you for your information and education. Any chance you have a recommendation for a good Dr I can trust in my city? I already miss trust my Dr because he already offer and was ready to extract and start the implant of one molar without even discuss with me the possibility of my Bone was sufficient to support the implant, no study and that worry me that he could find after the fact that I am a good candidate for one.
Base on that I don’t know what to do or how to research for a trust Dr.
It will great you guide me on the right direction in Phoenix AZ. Your help will greatly appreciated. It will be even great if you recommend someone that takes military retired dental insurance ( I think is only one offered, or I can supply more exactly the insurance name).
Thank you for your help.

you mention finances for dental implants...it cost me over 70, 000.00. !! I had to morgtage my home.I had no choice.

I want to get multiple consultations for all on four, do I need to get a 3-D scan at every consultation and is that expensive?

Will the 3-D scan definitively determine if there is it two millimeters of bone, or is there a potential for an unpleasant surprise during surgery and teeth in a day is not possible?
