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!
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.
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.
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 had all on 4 top and bottom in he Uk. It cost me £23,990 , and 4 months after initial surgery, still waiting for the Top teeth, As temporary denture falls out. In hindsight. I wish I Never had it Done .
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
@@4unnyprince in my area anywhere from 35 to 50 grand. Sadly, dental work is always very expensive. I have certain issues which don't allow me to wear a conventional denture so if I want to have teeth this is my only option .
@@carlmontney7916hence, the reason for dental tourism. The dentist have the same amount of training, and the same products as US dentists, but at 1/3-1/4 of the price. I have known of several people to go this route, and I myself am going to Cancun within the next year.
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.
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.
Its disgusting these uk dentists are allowed to price gouge like this.l nothing short of daylight robbery. Go to Turkey regardless of what he says or bulgaria . Im paying 6475 for top and bottom, temps, perms, xrays, 3D scans and medicine. X
What a great presentation. I am at the point of considering this option to fix some dental issues but I'm a total novice. Yesterday I watched a complete procedure, which was interesting, but this video is fantastic. Thank you so much. You have a great presentation and delivery style. Very reassuring and confident.
I had this done a year ago and had no idea what to expect ,,still dont ,,when I shave I get a zap at two implant locations from pulling my razor over them ,,I have numbness all around my mouth ,if im not careful with the waterpik I get a zap in a couple spots ,,not fun,i hate zirconia,,the tapping noise while eating is very annoying ,,
After taking a tree branch to my upper teeth while mountain biking, I had the whole top done under general anesthesia. They did six implant with bone grafts. Nearly no pain these guys were awesome. The one thing I insisted on was I still wanted my canines, the on doctor couldn’t understand why. I just pointed out if you want to see if someone has false teeth look for the points. The nurses were so awesome, the following week i sent all of them flowers, and a thank you card..
Great video doc, I am currently waiting for a serious procedure. I have a bad infection in my Jaw and need all on 4 implants. Costing me around $48,000 dollars to fix my entire mouth, but I will have my confidence and smile back! I’m scared and excited at the same time. 😂
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
@@dreammr64lynn24check out done in one in Boca Raton. 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
@@dreammr64lynn24 depends where you are. im going to an expert here in my country who traveled the world and is well known for all on procedures, and im paying 16k euros for zirconia teeth for full mouth with temporarys, all teeth taken out and 4 implants on top 4 on bottom, in the US for example you'd need atleast 40-50k for the same thing. and in my country there are much cheaper ones too for like 10k or less, and in some countries im sure you can get them even cheaper.
@@dreammr64lynn24 In the US they quoted me at multiple places around Vegas for 50k or more. I do have a lot of bone loss and my case is special. I opted to travel to Turkey and do it there. All together it is around $12k for the procedure only which included extracting of all teeth top and bottom. 6 implants on the bottom (Medigma Bio Titanium which is a very high quality German implants) 7 implants on the top. Also included in this price was double sinus lift. Bone grafting, alot of bone grafting... My temporary teeth and my real teeth which are 28 teeth 14 upper and 14 lower, esthetic Zirconia. The Zirconia material is very strong and I recommend it over porcelain or any other material for the teeth themelf. Now on top of the $12k you have airplane tickets and hotel I came with my wife so I had to pay 2k for tickets and 1k for hotel for 7 nights at Marriot. After 6 months I still have to come back for my final teeth and that's another 2k in airplane tickets and 10 nights $1200. It takes longer the 2nd time as they will finalize your teeth and everything has to be perfect. All in all around 17-20k
Have you ever worked on someone with Anesthesia Dolorosa? I have a soft spot for medical community that uses ish. It makes it actually so much clearer to me.
the title of the video is wrong ... these are not problems as the procedure has been in the practice for years with tremendous success,, these are special considerations or preparations .
If you have most of your teeth but with a bunch of fillings is it better to get all of your teeth pulled and do this or just keep doing fillings and have a couple implants?
I won a smile makeover 3 years ago and I received one dentist for the surgery he provided me with an amazing experience and amazing temporaries however the second dentist was less experienced and I ended up with a final that did not fit right and went through numerous appointments to try to make it align and now I'm sitting here with a bottom full arch that is cracked in half and now have to pay to get a new set of permanent ones done which I cannot afford...I'm so disheartened and don't know what to do uggh
Btw it’s NOT impossible to have shock from a dead tooth. I had a root canal and a crown and that tooth was always giving me shock and was very sensitive that if I bit on it I got a whole body shock. I can’t wait to have all my upper teeth removed. They’re all infected I was told. I have to wear dentures for a while til I can get my implants . I just lost my job and am looking for another one. The company I worked for went bankrupt. I barely got paid my last month. It was very rough. And it’s been 7 months now that i have not found another job .
There is an implant group on RU-vid advocating Water Pik flossing only two times a day as a replacement for flossing with “ fuzzy floss”. They also advocate a mild solution of bleach and water (2 teaspoons of bleach in a pint of water) to disinfect every couple of weeks. They seem like a reputable office. What do you think of this alternative method to keep your 4 on 4 clean? They’re not against manual flossing they just don’t feel it’s necessary if you use this Water Pik method.
Thank you for these great videos. Can I ask whether there is a difference between the labs who fabricate the prosthesis? Are you familiar with a company called Ivoclar? They have been recommended for mine. Cheers.
Who would you recommend in the United States. I have to do all on four after cancer treatments ruined my teeth. I need a great surgeon and the best possible cosmetic outcome.
Could you please do a video on how to properly clean both your temporary and your permanent “all on four”? I’m still in my ‘temporary’ phase, but worry that I’m not cleaning it properly. I currently have the extra soft brush for the temporary, and a syringe that I use to clean the area between the temporary and my gums. Thank you in advance.
Dr. Gurs I had 10 implants placed on 4/10. Can you please chime in if taking vitamin D and calcium will help my bone heal faster? Same day teeth is a dang lie.
Taking vitamin D3 and calcium is often helpful and recommended as you age, your often need extra help. Can not get enough natural. Always ask your Dr. My answer no does not heal faster..but will make bone health stronger long term.
Yes I agree, I had 12 on all on 4, but top teeth still Not done,After bone Grafting, been 4 months with No top teeth. As temporary denture keeps falling out, .
@@mashp5629 it sucks but much better this way. You would not build a house on an unsteady foundation, would you? Same logic applies to implants. You want them to be fully integrated with the bone and completely healed. Otherwise they can get ripped right out. I went 7 months in a mask because I could not do a basic denture.
Yes it just seems a lot of money, to have No Top teeth for 4 months, Surgeon said he will adapt the Top denture, which a could Not wear , said he was going to Screw it in. Fingers Crossed.
I hate mine. They arent the same size of the teeth I had and my facial structure changed completely. I have top and bottom and paid almost 60K - I wish they were made wider and they look like dentures. I am so depressed.
I love listening to you. I think you would be a great narrator. You could do an audiobook and combine all on four with romance. I’m kind of Kidding but some of my best ideas come out of jokes. The title….All on four with Nathaniel. It started with the bicycle accident on the second day of 1994. I’m about to do all on four but need an ok from my doctor as I had a PE in January. I’m on a medication which has warnings for causing dental problems but by the time the warning came out it was too late. Every other day another bridge would crack off. Thanks for all of your educational videos. They are very helpful. Thanks!!!!
Hello if you have dentures that has the roof mouth part on the top teeth,can you remove this roof mouth part and make the top and bottom teeth smaller and put studs in on your gums but Gums are Small Also Dentist made these dentures without waiting for Gums to Shrink. Looking forward from hearing from you hopefully. Not in the UK. Dentist here aren't that good all about money here.
I have dentures And I know I grind teeth at night wanted all of fours but I'd probably have to were. Mouth guard at night.. maybe it's good I got dentures and take them out at night
I am seeing a dentist who put crowns on all my teeth (actually unnecessary). Ground the teeth way, way down and I now have horrible sensitivity and pain on chewing. I have extreme sensitivity to heat and cold The teeth squeak and I also now have a lisp I never had a lisp before. My teeth never squeaked before, I was never in pain from heat or cold or upon chewing. Dentist seems to be in denial of these issues. Top front teeth curve is too extreme and I am lisping. Dentist does not appear to have empathy,.. I feel like a construction site.
I've had implants done , cost me thousands and everyone has failed , they lasted 7 years at the most, my front have fell out and the side ones won't last that much longer
@drgurssehmi yes I did, had to keep going back a least once a week , sometime twice a week because they was coming loose, they weren't even being tightened up enough, that's why they was coming loose, now I have no front ones , one implant is still in my jaw, and the other side came completely out with the teeth
why call it all in one day if its not? call it what it is all in one day kind of.........almost uh all in one difficult day um all my money gone in a week or 6 months
After all on 4 zirconia both arches my dentists (2 of which one tuned out to be very dishonest) created cage that is too narrow for my tongue. My speech is heavily lisping - a mumble if you will, and my mouth is producing heavy slime turning sour in areas of contact gum-bridge, all food and drinks are "un-tasty"... I wish now I had those free removable acrylic pieces, at least I'd be able to re-fresh my mouth in the night. My life is miserable now, I was cheated, I stay very unhappy and angry, There's lot more to my horror story - I can disclose all data if requested.
I also had too narrow size arch fitted recently in Turkey, with most of your symptoms. I have started legal proceedings against the clinic, and you need to do the same if you can. Where do you live? Where was your surgery done? In the UK you can instruct No Win, No Fee lawyers.
@@sandradenise2283where did you have your surgery in Turkey? I was looking into getting mine done there but would like to be aware of any issues ahead of time. Thank you
@@annet1784 I had mine done in Antalya. However, you need to be very careful if you go there, because you could find yourself unable to get justice if it goes wrong. I have proof of Criminal action in my case; Malice Aforethought. Therefore, I should not have to Pay for justice. However, I sent my report to the police and the court - and not only did they ignore it - but both emails have disappeared from my Sent Hotmail folder!!!
Do you mean years after the removal of your teeth (or a previous all on 4) . In both cases the answer is yes, if you are medically fit. However, depending on how much bone is remaining, it may be a little more complex. If you have already had AO4, then it's likely to be more complex. If you just had teeth removed years ago, you might be surprised at how much bone is still remaining.
LetMs how NEVER EVER! One might as well get dentures,lot cheaper and one can clean it themselves.Who wants that much plastic in their mouth at such crazy expense! Who ever came up with All on 4 system? Simply CRAZY🙄
you do the guessing at your best knowledge but you never tell us amount of pain and starving we go through! I would of never got this done never! I did it because my teeth were bad after surviving a parasite that caused my health.. I wish I never had this done. I still cant use them properly (3 years since extraction) I paid 5 grand now IF I want them to fit right and they quote me about $18 grand! It's all about money on your end. :(
A good set of dentures is all you need without all of this propaganda, you can take them out to eat and clean them with no gunk left underneath, they can look good, no fillings, no root canal treatments, no pain, dentures can be replaced in time without all of the diggery, the dental expenses will follow you forever as you get older.
It’s ok for you uk dentist to moan or slay European clinics or certain procedures.. 1 uk dentist ps have NO experience of this whereas EU clinics do it all day every day, ( doing a few implants a year doesnt count ! ), 2: what lunatic would pay uk prices !!! Im sure anyone who is having this treatment is fully aware of any procedure necessary. Also if you have never ever been in screaming agony with dental pain then you have no idea
Thank you for this video! God bless you! To anyone who reads this and love you all: make sure you know Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour everyone! He is coming soon! Accept and believe in Jesus Christ! John 3:16, Revelation 20:15
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.
Has anyone considered a bioimplant? The tooth is removed, and an exact replica of your tooth is pushed in, not drilled. They are also called root analogue implants. They use ceramic too - for people with metal allergies.
@@Natalie82170 It's about 3000 per tooth - the same as a regular implant on a tooth by tooth basis. However very few dentists do this. In theory - and I am not recommending this - you can have your tooth removed and a tooth pushed in from a deceased person and it would integrate perfectly well. Obviously dentists don't do this for ethical reasons.
@@robinluich6626 They are called root analogue implants. A company in Thailand called them bionic tooth implants. They are called bioimplants by a dentist in Austria. There isn't much online information about them, but the idea is very simple and straightforward. Bioimplant have a youtube channel and it really is as simple as it looks, the dentist just pushes in a replica tooth in about 30 seconds. Only about 3 dentists in the world offer this service.
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.
I just got home from having my implants placed and the teeth put in in Cancun too. I’m not real happy with the treatment I received. I feel that the teeth could look much better. Also, I was still in the dentist’s chair until 1 a.m. the morning that I had to leave. In hindsight, I would have lied about the date I was leaving. I’d hoped to have them put in and have a chance to wear them before I left. I was there for a week before I was seen. Mexican time moves much slower than in the U.S.
Dr Sehmi, I have a question. I currently have 6 implants on the top (individuals) , but due to medication my mother took, my existing real teeth are very brittle. One by one they are failing, with and without crowns. The implants are about 4 years old. Can a full set of upper dentures use the existing implants be possibly created, saving a little time and money?
I am in the US and thinking about going to Turkey using a company called Flymedi to get all of 4 treatment. Any input about this company? I would have the work done here in the US but its 60k here and around 10-20k in Turkey.
