Description

Hi all: I'm looking into having my teeth replaced via the "All on X" procedure. I am 39 and am missing 2 teeth from a childhood accident which I had replaced with old-school dental implants about 20 years ago. I also have both an under-bite and a cross-bite as well as one missing molar on the right and a severely cracked molar on the left. My remaining teeth and gums are in generally good condition (29 teeth with my wisdoms) and because of my relative youth the dentists I have spoken to suggest I have dental crowns to deal with my under & cross-bite, or else invisalign with new crowns, etc. The costs of dealing with my issues with either dental crowns or Invisalign in Canada where I'm based would be roughly what the All on 6 would cost in Mexico so I'm trying to decide which solution would be the simplest and most long lasting. I really don't want to go through a year or more of Invisalign and I know that crowns can have issues with root damage, especially if they require root canals, and are a pain to thoroughly floss. The procedure I'm looking into would require one day to place the implants and temporary denture then a second day several months later to attach the final prosthesis after healing has finished and would cost between 20,000-25,000 CDN which sounds quite reasonable if it will last me the next 40-50 years. If anyone has had All on X in Mexico or via dental tourism elsewhere, please reach out and let me know your experience. I find the idea of dealing with my issues in a single day very seductive and the pictures I've seen of the after results look great.
