You’ve completed the final phase of your All-on-X treatment—congratulations! Your permanent bridge is now in place, giving you a strong, functional, and beautiful smile. As you adjust to your new prosthetic, proper care is essential for long-term success, comfort, and confidence.
Mild speech changes, increased saliva, or a tight bite feeling are normal and will subside within a few days to weeks.
You may experience slight gum sensitivity or soreness at first—especially if adjustments were made.
You can eat more normally now, but it’s still important to be mindful of your bite.
Start with soft to moderately firm foods for the first few days while adjusting to your new bite.
Chew evenly on both sides to distribute pressure across all implants.
Avoid using your teeth to bite hard objects (e.g., ice, pens, fingernails).
Long-term: avoid very hard foods like bones or unpopped popcorn kernels that could chip the bridge or overload implants.
Brush around the bridge twice daily using a soft electric or manual toothbrush.
Use waterfloss, superfloss or interdental brushes to clean underneath the bridge (we will demonstrate this). The easiest way to clean under the bridge is using a waterflosser.
An oral irrigator (water flosser) is highly recommended.
Use non-abrasive toothpaste to protect the ceramic finish.
Your final bridge is much slimmer, smoother, and stronger than the temporary—expect a noticeable difference in feel and performance.
Any speech changes usually resolve within 1–2 weeks with regular speaking and reading aloud.
Visit us every 6 months for a professional clean and implant review.
If you grind your teeth at night, wear your custom night guard consistently.
Your bridge is highly durable, but chips or wear can occur without proper care.
Clicking or looseness in the bridge
Discomfort, gum swelling, or bleeding around the implants
Difficulty cleaning or signs of irritation underneath the prosthesis
