🎥 Watch Dr. Bina explain the pros, cons, and pricing of each solution so you can make the most informed choice. | ||||||
Please Note: | ||||||
1-Bone Reduction: “Moderate to significant bone reduction is required for All-on-4 and All-on-6 solutions to create space for the prosthesis. Unfortunately, this is not disclosed to the patients by many dentists. This permanent change to your bone may limit future treatment options, such as replacement implants or other fixed dental prostheses if needed, which could require major reconstruction or other costly corrective methods. Dr. Bina prioritizes bone preservation and utilizes techniques to preserve your jaw bone which in turn allows implants to be placed in the optimal location. Dr. Bina will discuss this thoroughly during your consultation.” | ||||||
2 – Tooth Preservation: “Unlike most All-on-4 and All-on-6 protocols that require removal of all remaining teeth—even healthy ones—Dr. Bina’s All-on-More™ and Segmented Bridge solutions are often designed to preserve your natural teeth wherever possible. This tooth-saving approach reduces trauma, protects your bone, and can result in better long-term outcomes and flexibility if future treatments are needed.” This approach is what sets Dr. Bina apart from other dentists! | ||||||
3- Material Feel & Wear: “The feel and weight of the prosthesis may vary based on materials (porcelain, zirconia, acrylic), arch size, and framework. Material choice also impacts wear on opposing natural teeth: Acrylic is gentlest, porcelain wears slightly, and zirconia wears most significantly. Periodic monitoring is recommended for zirconia restorations.” | ||||||
4- Esthetics: “Esthetics depend on choice of materials selected, lab customization, translucency, gum contours, and individual patient factors. Our star rating reflects general appearance quality; a higher rating indicates greater naturalness and customization potential.” | ||||||
5- Longevity & Lifespan: Estimated longevity and lifespan are based on average clinical data, assuming proper oral hygiene, regular professional maintenance, and absence of complications. While dental implants can last a long time with proper care, the prosthetic teeth may require replacement or repair over time due to normal wear and tear. Lifespan depends on patient age, oral hygiene, bite forces, health, and adherence to maintenance. Nightguards are often recommended, especially for bruxers (patients who grind or clench), as this can accelerate wear or damage. | ||||||
6- Insurance Coverage: “Dental insurance (PPO) coverage may apply for portions of the treatment, but benefits vary significantly by individual plan. It is essential to verify your specific dental benefits with your carrier. Some Medicare programs may cover part of the expenses. Our team can assist with a complimentary benefits check. HMO plans typically do not apply. | ||||||
7- All-Inclusive Price Range: All-inclusive price estimates typically cover extractions, minor bone grafting, implants, temporary teeth, and the final prosthesis (unless specified). Additional fees may apply for diagnostic work-up, sedation, major bone grafting (e.g., sinus lift), or advanced lab customization. Prices are estimates and vary based on treatment complexity, bone condition, and special laboratory fees. | ||||||
8- Estimated Monthly Payment: “Monthly payment estimates are based on approved credit through third-party financing partners and specific financing terms (e.g., interest rates, repayment period, amount of down payment). These are subject to change and are not a guarantee of approval. Above rates assume down payment for portion of the treatment fee. Please inquire about 0% interest options (for 6-12 months on approved credit) or custom financing; pre-qualification is available without affecting your credit score. | ||||||
General Disclaimer: “Important: This chart provides general information for comparative purposes only and is not a substitute for professional medical or dental advice. Every patient’s oral health needs are unique, and a thorough examination and consultation with Dr. Bina are essential to determine the most suitable treatment plan for you. | ||||||
Individual Results: “Important: Individual results may vary. While we strive for excellent outcomes for all patients, factors such as bone quality, healing response, oral hygiene, and overall health can influence the final result and longevity of your dental implants.” | ||||||
Risks & Benefits: All medical procedures carry potential risks and benefits. These will be thoroughly discussed with you during your consultation, allowing you to make an informed decision about your treatment. | ||||||
Important: All-on-4 Considerations: Unlike centers that apply a “one-size-fits-all” or “cookie-cutter” All-on-4 design, we prioritize your individual needs. Be aware that the routine All-on-4 procedure often involves removing all teeth in an arch (even healthy or savable ones) and a significant amount of healthy jawbone. This extensive bone removal can unfortunately compromise your future treatment options if the All-on-4 ever fails – and they can and they do fail. We empower you to make the best choice for your long-term oral health. Learn more: “Is All-on-4 Right for You? What I Recommend You Consider Before Deciding“ and “Common mistakes choosing All-on-4 and how to avoid them” to help you choose the right treatment option. | ||||||
