25 Amazing Dental Implant Bridge Cases (Part 1)
Board Certified Prosthodontist and Board-Certified implant Dentist, Dr. David McFadden, believes that the All-On-4 procedure used so routinely today for full arch and full moth tooth replacements is NOT the best option, popular as it is. His approach for full arch tooth replacement, Implant Bridges, specifically FP-1 and FP-2 type prostheses, are a FAR BETTER OPTION.
Many patients who seek advice on these treatments are routinely told that these prostheses are not an option, and he argues that, more often than not, they ARE.
We are told on a daily basis by patients seeking this kind of treatment that they’ve sought out opinions from numerous dentists only to be told they need All-On-4 treatments instead; that the FP-1 and FP-2 Implant Bridge options are only able to be done in a very, very few percent of cases. But. He does several of these, every single week. Here, he shows cases after case, just how these are done and how often they CAN BE DONE, when done properly.
In this video, and the sequel to follow, he reviews 25 of the most recent cases our office has done in the past year, to show that they are NOT as impossible to do as patients are often told.

Thank you again for this and all of your informative videos Dr. David McFadden
Thank you. I’m glad you found them informative and helpful!
I live in Vancouver, BC, Canada, and like many others seeking a smile makeover, I’ve faced a long, frustrating journey to restore my smile. Dental implants are often prohibitively expensive, so I explored options abroad, such as in Mexico, hoping to find a solution that wouldn’t compromise quality. Through months of research, I educated myself on various smile reconstruction methods, and one procedure stood out: the 3-on-6 dental implant system. Everything I read reinforced that this was a superior option compared to alternatives like the All-on-4, which consistently raised red flags. It became clear to me that the All-on-4 procedure came with risks and limitations I wanted to avoid entirely. My next challenge was finding a reputable practitioner who offered the 3-on-6 procedure. I discovered a few providers in Canada, but I quickly noticed a troubling pattern. Despite advertising 3-on-6 implants, many practitioners seemed determined to steer me toward the All-on-4 option instead-often dismissing or downplaying the benefits of 3-on-6. Even when I expressed my firm decision to avoid All-on-4, they pushed it as the “better solution.” This experience left me disheartened and deeply wary. For those who have had negative experiences with dental implants, my story might sound familiar. The process of finding a skilled, ethical practitioner can feel like an uphill battle, and the consequences of choosing the wrong one can be devastating. That’s why I want to thank you for your incredibly informative and reassuring video. It has reignited my hope and provided me with another option to consider-implant bridges. Your clear and honest insights have been a beacon of light in what has otherwise been a confusing and disheartening journey. I hope others in a similar position can find the guidance they need to make informed decisions and avoid the mistakes that have caused so much pain for others. Thank you for sharing this valuable information. --- This version emphasizes the user's cautionary tale and expresses gratitude for resources that help others avoid similar pitfalls. It’s aimed at engaging and educating an audience with shared experiences.
I love your videos and appreciate how conservative and mindful you are with your patients. If you are looking for a fantastic FP1 doctor in the northeast you should call Metro Dental. Dr. Alex Fedorenko.

THE ALL ON FOUR PERSON CAN ONLY CHEW IN THE FRONT OF THE PERSON MOUTH. THAT WHY THE ALL ON FOUR IMPLANT DENTURE BE BREAKING AND FAIL BECAUSE THE ALL ON FOUR DENTIST GOT ALL OF THE FORCES CONCENTRATION IN THE FRONT OF MOUTH INSTEAD OF THROUGH OUT THE ENTIRE MOUTH. SO THE BITE FORCES ARE NOT SPREAD EVENLY THROUGH OUT THE ENTIRE MOUTH. IN ORDER FOR THE BITE FORCES TO SPREAD EVENLY IT HAVE TO IMPLANTS IN THE BACK OF THE MOUTH TOO AND THE BACK SIDE. ALL ON FOUR IS ONE OF THE DUMBEST PROCEDURE.THE ALL OF FOUR IS NOT BIOMECHANICS OR BIOMIMETIC. ALL ON FOUR DOES NOT FUNCTION LIKE NATURAL TEETH. BECAUSE WHEN A PERSON GOT ALL OF THEIR NATURAL TEETH THE BITE FORCES ALL SPREAD EVENLY FROM THE FRONT PART OF MOUTH TO THE BACK PART OF MOUTH. WITH ALL ON FOUR THE BITES FORCES IS ONLY AT THE FRONT PART OF YOUR MOUTH AND THE BACK OF MOUTH. ALL ON FOUR DOES NOT MIMIC OR COPY NATURE. WITH THE ALL ON FOUR YOUR BITE FORCE IS OFF.THE ALL ON FOUR DOES NOT RESTORE FULL BITE FUNCTION FORCES OF THE WHOLE ENTIRE YOUR MOUTH JUST THE FRONT OF THE MOUTH AND NOT THE BACK. OF THE MOUTH. I THANK YOU FOR YOUR VIDEOS DR. MCFADDEN I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS. I HAVE LEARN ALOT FROM DR.MCFADDEN.
THERE IS A DENTIST ONLINE THAT IS SAYING THAT IMPLANT BRIDGE GUMS WILL NOT HOLD UP NO 10, 20. 30 YEARS FOR NOW. THE GUMS WILL FAIL. IT WILL NOT HAVE THE SAME APPERANCE. THE PERSON GOING TO HAVE BLACK TRIANGLE AND THE PERSON IS GOING TO LOSE THE PAPILLA. HE SAID THE GUM TISSUE WILL NOT LAST MANY YEARS. THAT THE REASON WHY HE IS AGAINST THE IMPLANT BRIDGE MOSTLY. HE SAID OF A PERSON GET A PF2 THE PERSON GOING TO HAVE SUPER LONG TEETH AND WILL BE LOOKING LIKE A HORSE OR OTHER ANIMALS IF THE PERSON IS A FEMALE. HE SAID IF A PERSON HAVE A IMPLANT BRIDGE THAT A PERSON GOING TO HAVE MORE OF A SQUARE TEETH . EVEN KNOW EVERY BODY IN THE WORLD GOT SQUARE TEETH.

Thank you so much doctor❤❤
You’re welcome! I’m so glad you found it helpful.
Very informative, practical video. This explained everything we needed to know before making such decision. Thank you Dr. David.
You’re very welcome! I’m glad you found this so helpful.
Im coming to see you soon U are amazing
My team and I will be happy to help you any way we can.
Is there any chance that even with the all on four treatment having been done, you are able to do something along the lines of this? It is so unfortunate that dentists are selling the all on four and patients find out after the fact what they have to do!!
We can usually improve the prostheses significantly but that bone removal bell cannot be unrung. Meaning, the FP3 that is the result of All-on-4 cannot be turned into an FP1 or an FP2.
What size implants do you use in the cases of anterior maxilla bone loss..and can you place bridge in type 3 or 4 bone?
@@margaret34233.4 to 4.1 mm.
@@margaret3423yes, in all bone density types.
I spent 12 grand for 5 implants in my top gum I didnt need any bone graft.my gums were healthy and I had plenty of good bone. My crooked fractured teeth were removed and I got a plastic bridge with 12 fantastic teeth a little longer than my original teeth. This is a tempory bridge and I've recieved 2 more temporary bridges each feeling a little more comfortable than the previous. I've paid 2 thirds off the 12 grand. Once the balance is paid I get a smoother bridge made from titanium and 12 porcelain teeth attached to it. Believe me it's not what they look like it's how they feel especially eating. I've never enjoyed eating I feel I've just got a denture in my mouth very thin yes but a denture held in place by 5 implants. Hope fully the final bridge on 5 will be a game changer.
So with an implant bridge are you saying that every one of your top 12 teeth requires 12 implants instead of an all on 4 which is 12 teeth attached to a bridge by 4 implants. ?
No! Not at all. I never said I do 12 implants for a 12 unit bridge… and I don’t. I’m confused as to why you think that?
I wish I could afford you😘
Do you know the avarage cost ?
I adore your expertise Dr McFadden.❤
Thank you. 34 years of doing this has taught me much. Thank you for watching - I hope these videos are helpful to you.
Thank You so much
You're most welcome!
Very informative thank you for providing these slides they are very helpful. I live in 🇨🇦 10 yrs ago my upper teeth were removed I believe most of them were removed for profit! 4 implants were placed 3 months later. I was not provided with a treatment plan and was sent off to a dentist for a denture to be put on my implants.(it's been a nightmare for 10yrs) this was strictly a denture with 4 liner holes for the implant (awful) 2 of the implants failed due to bone loss. I am now starting the process for replacing the lost implants a 3D panoramic x-ray shows that I need a sinus lift at 68yrs old this is my one chance for a better quality of life. I have made a lot of notes from your video and will be asking my surgeon a lot of questions. I definitely like the idea of a one piece implant bridge verses all on 4. Thank you so very much for your video on this issue.
You’re welcome. I’m so glad you found this informative. I hope you gleaned enough from this presentation to help know which questions to ask. I have other videos on this topic that you may find helpful, as well. I wish you the very best!
My wife has no teeth on her lower right side all four are gone what do you suggest ?
It’s hard to advise anything without seeing a current X-ray, but hopefully, she’s a candidate for an implant bridge to replace the four missing teeth. If she has enough bone for implants, most likely a four tooth bridge on two implants.
Dr. McFadden I thank you for your honesty. I have been listening to and watching the videos of another dentist about implants and I thought they were being honest but I have never heard them discuss bone removal. It is really unbelievable the greed and misinformation associated with all on 4.
@@Esther-gv5cn You’re welcome. I’m glad you’re doing your research before embarking on something this big. Good luck to you
This is incredible information. I greatly appreciate honesty. Thank you so much.
Glad it was helpful!
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?
I have given a few classes but, honestly, the technique is so advanced that the only people who can even begin to start this learning curve are those dentists (mostly surgical Prosthodontists) who have done dozens of large cases. I will release a video soon that demonstrates why it's so difficult which causes the treatment to be very rare. I literally just finished a surgery and I feel like a ran two marathon. The surgery is difficult but the real limiting factor that limits these treatments to Prosthodontic practices is the immediate (day of surgery) fabrication of the FP-1 (implant bridge temporary). If you haven't seen my "Why Some Dentists are so Much Better than others" please see link below. It probably sounds elitist and I don't mean for it to be that way. It's a really time consuming, delicate, precise surgery that most dentists (especially Oral Surgeons) do not have the patience to perform. A Prosthodontist must be involved for the entire day so it's also a logistic nightmare for that office. We have three Prosthodontists here. I hope this explains some of the reasons...

I first watched this video 2 years ago. I was ready to go with all on 4 because of all the positive videos. You stopped me from making that bad decision. btw, I still haven't made a decision.
Keep doing your research and be diligent! I wish you the very best in your search. Hopefully, my videos will arm you with enough knowledge that you can know just what questions to ask when you’re interviewing. If, after your searching, you’re still feeling unsettled, reach out and schedule a ZOOM consultation with me and I’ll be happy to help in any way I can.
What about patients that have some form of facial neuralgia pain such as Atypical trigeminal neuralgia or atypical odontalgia that was caused by a dental prcedure or dental injection. I have been told that inplants would be asking for more nerve pain. Not sure if you are familiar with how many people suffer lifelong pain from nerve issues that started with dental procedure but would like to know if you have any knowledge of this. Most dentists either claim ignorance on the subject or just do not want to admit that dental procedures can go terribly wrong and cause people to suffer from pain and or numbness the rest of there life
I am aware of these complications. Fortunately, I have never had a patient suffer any of these life-changing outcomes. I would certainly proceed with caution. I would need A LOT more information to advise.
I live in upstate ny so obviously it wouldn't be Feasible to travel to Texas for treatment. is there any dentist in the northeast that you could recommend?
Try as I have, I have not yet found another dentist in that area who follows the same protocol as we do. But with the information you glean from many of my videos, hopefully, you can interview some prosthodontists and know which questions to ask and be sure to ask to see lips retracted photos of their work. Good luck 😊
I had a dentist recommend all on 4 for me because I have 5 teeth that need implants in my upper jaw. The problem I had with his recommendation was that all my front teeth are in excellent condition, except for a chipped front tooth. They are strong and healthy and perfectly aligned, yet he wants to extract them all and do all on 4 because I need implants in my back teeth. I said absolutely not. He seemed annoyed that I couldn't see the benefit of his suggestion. He even sent his assistant to try and convince me.🤔 Is it common to extract good teeth for this procedure?
(Absolutely not!) Run!
@@mcfaddendentalimplantcenter Thank you for this confirmation that I made the right decision!
How can you pay as you go when your getting finainced?
Because you’re only paying for each phase of treatment AS IT IS DONE, and not the entire fee for ALL treatment which, in some cases may ultimately take 12-18 months to complete. In other words, you’re not paying 12-18 months in advance for treatment that is yet to be done.
Will the Interdental gingiva (papilla) eventually fill in the gaps if a zirconium roundhouse 12 tooth with no pink and 7 full size implants that were all bone grafted is screwed into place after wearing an interim denture for about 8 months while bone grafts healed?
They are most likely as large and full as they are going to be. Some minor improvement may happen if the permanent has more pressure on the tissue than the temporary.
Hello Dr / thank you for your upload / I am going through a terrible stage in my life - as I was assaulted last year which resulted in my upper two front teeth removed - and the lower four front are not in great shape as they were also impacted / so I will have to get them removed most likely in the coming years / it has destroyed my smile and ability to vocalise like I used to - which has shattered my life - and sense of well being - I have been diagnosed with severe periodontitis- I am wondering do gums have to be completely pink to receive a form of treatment?? Or can it still be possibly not to get a lasting effective result while still having poor gum health / as I think it may also be hereditary as I cannot really remember ever having pink gums - well maybe only as an infant to adolescent but even then I am not sure if i had great gum health - it has been about 18 months since teeth were removed - and i am also worried about the length of time it has been and damage done by denture - which i have been wearing for about 10 -12 months .. i have a partial denture for my front two upper which attach by hooks on my canines . but i sincerely hope to get optimal treatment to bring back my bite force and ability to vocalise - do you think there will be a possible avenue / that is not on the extreme end of costing / thank you for your time - i hope to hear back from you
43 years old. On permanent disability. I only have around $16,500 saved, with 805 credit score. The problem is my income is only $963 a month. Had to pull all but 4 on bottom front teeth removed between age 25-30 my teeth started massively failing. Root canals with crowns were at least $1700 each. My only option, according to my money hungry dentist wanted to do a lot of root canal/crowns. He could have done fillings I'm sure on several of them. I ended up caving in and had to have them pulled. I don't leave the house hardly ever. I wish someone would run into me while walking down the road so I could be "deleted". I haven't had a life since my early 20s. Is there any hope for me?! By the way I live in Southern Illinois, so I'm 11 and a half hours at least away from you. I have headaches, and jaw pain everyday. All those teeth being pulled I just know is what caused my trigeminal neuralgia, which is so painful it's known as a suicide syndrome from the pain. Also, I have tried two sets of cheap dentures and I could not wear those things. I couldn't talk right, and they hurt so bad, fell out etc. and I also had to have at least 4 Alveoloplasty procedures years ago while trying to wear those basic dentures. Little splinter pieces of jawbone would poke through my gum. I haven't had to have one of those in many years. I was told about 6 months ago that I had a good amount of bone left from a dentist.
Thank you for your wonderfully informative videos. So helpful.
Glad to be of help.
So I went to see a dentist in London, and she airily proposed 'angled abutments' as if they were the most natural, obvious thing...Yet you vehemently oppose them. Are they bad because they aren't seen in nature, or because they have bad outcomes, long and short term?
Because of their affect on the bone and long term outcomes.
Couldn't you write a book about this disgraceful state of affairs? An instant best seller! It's like the Wild West out there!
There was a book written in the 70s called, "Dentistry and its Victims". I have not read it... rather I have lived it. If I had more time, I would enjoy writing that book !!!
So this is the video I keep seeing in those ads?
I have no idea…? I don’t monetize my channel.
@@mcfaddendentalimplantcenter Some company called Nuvia Dental Implants put an image of your video in their ads about why their one day dental implants are "better". Not sure why I get them, I have no need for dental implants 😅
@@mcfaddendentalimplantcenter Some company called Nuvia had your video thumbnail in their ads for their teeth in a day products
excellent work... put yourself in the patient's shoes... great
@@Dr.AmalNawasrah Thank you, Dr. I see no better way to care for patients.
Do use any abutments whatsoever? I know you mentioned angled is a "no go".
Yes. With bone level implants we use straight abutments 95% of the time. 5% of the time we must use angled abutments because of bone anatomy. However, when you don't remove bone as in the all-on-4 process you can successfully use an angled abutment when needed.
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
Without at least reviewing a current panoramic X-ray and your medical and dental history, it’s difficult to give you a ballpark estimate or know which options would best suit your needs. With that said, if you can send (email) a current panoramic to my office, my staff can facilitate a zoom consultation and I can shed more light on what I would recommend and what the fees would be in my office. You can call 214-956-9100 and my staff will be able to take it from there.
So could I have a ball park figure, if I send you scan and X-ray? Cheers, Rosemary Rimmer-Clay
I am happy to schedule a zoom consultation with you if you can contact my office and send a copy of the panoramic X-ray to us beforehand. 🙌🏻
Hi, Dr McFadden, I was told by a dentist in the UK that it is not possible to place bridges directly on implants, that they require abutments to ensure stability. Did I misunderstand your videos in which you say that abutments are not essential? I feel confused! Thanks, Rosemary Rimmer Clay
It depends on the implant. One kind you can avoid the abutments (Tissue level implants) and one kind you can't (bone level implants). I use both. The main thing about "abutments" is to avoid or minimize the use of "angles abutments" which are always used in All-on-4. It's part of what causes the problems with All-on-4. Better surgery without bone removal reduces the need for angled abutments. This is covered in my "Buyer Beware..." videos.
But how can you concentrate on sedation AND dentistry? Surely an in-house anaesthesiologist at your side while you do the dentistry is safer?
Healthy patients or we bring in a anesthesiologist. They are all long learning curves that most people can learn if you progress slowly and cautiously. IV Conscious sedation is incredibly safe.
Wow a life saver ❤
such an excellent explanation! As a Sjogren's patient it has been a nightmare. I already have two upper implants and two lowere (one on each side) but my upper teeth are failiing due to the dry mouth. This really answered so many quesstions, especially as I have a very gummy smile and when my front tooth was removed the guyms receeded a bit. Looking forward to setting up a consultation.
Thank you. I’m glad you found it informative. I’ll be happy to help in any way I can.
I am so sorry and hope you get them fixed for you.
Hey again Dr. McFadden! I might have complications with tooth 31(root canal treated) and I was wondering if instead of doing a retreatment and new crown, if you would ever suggest doing an implant for 31? I think most of your restorations only include 24 teeth instead of 28, and I wanted to know your opinion on keeping 28, with implants
Yes. If that’s a tooth you need for chewing/there’s an opposing tooth above it, absolutely. We do single tooth replacements all the time!
@@mcfaddendentalimplantcenter Awesome. Thanks for your reply Dr. McFadden :) Tuesday is my appointment to see what might be wrong with the tooth and if retreatment/extraction is on the table, I'll be calling the office for a consultation visit about replacing that tooth with a more permanent option. Have a great day!
@@James-bj2niYou, too!
Sorry but what you just presented is I think too exaggerated
Tell us how much bone you remove in your practice.
@@davidmcfadden7927 yes I remove but all I am saying is your animated presentation is too much presenting bone removal. I remove just enough not to show transition of real gums plus gum prosthesis when patient is doing full smile or like gnarling smile that is why pre photographs are in a full smile and or sort of doing gnarling smile as one of the guides of course ct scan etc should be taken in consideration also. How much bone removal has no definite measurement it will all depend on how you think it will all end up pre surgery. So if you plan with end in mind you can come up with FP1, FP2 and FP3.
All on 4 takes your bone away. It requires less skill and a faster turnover time, hence more profit for the dentists in less time.
I will say I have gone through a brutal ordeal after an almost fatal car crash and a previous dentist that totally left me in dire straights after his treatments. Thank God I found Dr. McFadden. I prefer a control freak as they get the job done and done right. I am finishing my treatments now and all I can say people, don’t look anywhere else. Dr. M is a gem and so amazing at what he does! Thank you for everything Dr. McFadden and Dental Implant Center. You have and are changing my life! ❤️💯
Rachel !! Thank you for the kind, sweet words !
Interesting video. I am trying to decide between bridge implants which are 3 bridges each on 2 implants or do the all in 6 procedure. My understanding is that if one or two implants fail with the all in 6 you should be okay. If one implant fails with a bridge then you would need to replace that section but at least it is only one section. Also, bridges do not need to be removed ever year to be cleaned and I have a lower price quote to do the bridges by 6K. Looking for any advice as it is a hard decision and I plan on doing next week.
We no longer do separate bridges. There are several reasons why which I believe would only muddy the waters. I'm glad you're doing your research but I believe you are missing the biggest point about the differences between implant bridges and all on 6. You will have massive bone removal with all on 6. You will not have any bone removal with implant bridges. This is the main reason to opt for implant bridges. Your precious bone is worth far more than $6,000.
You are very expensive when compared to other practitioners, it doesn't matter how you try and justify the extortionist fees!
