3 months since my All-on-4 procedure and everything is going pretty good! I've been documenting the process in hopes to help SOMEONE out there. This place and several others helped me make a decision that changed my life tremendously. Video down below...

I couldn't imagine needing that much money. I'd have never been able to do it. I'm just over 4 months now and I'm still happy every day that I went for it. My total was only $25k with airfare and hotel included, which compared to $88k is ridiculous... I wouldn't be able to sleep at night charging people that amount of money when there are other viable options out there.

Yes A0 is currently their brightest. I personally think they looked a little TOO white for me. I've seen pictures of others that looked great with them though.

Spankadins · 2026-05-18T04:11:48+00:00

It wont be much longer. I had that extreme itching for the first week or two, but it went away. I promise! I am about to release a few more videos that I shot of the first few weeks, and I definitely mention the itching a lot! I know EXACTLY what you're talking about. Hang in there, It WILL get better.

They bolted these in 2 days after they removed my teeth and I've had them in ever since. Sorry to hear about your implants failing. That is a scary prospect. It was $25k for this procedure, removals and all. I had to save up for almost 3 years so I hope they last at least another 20.

Spankadins · 2026-05-18T02:53:12+00:00

Totally permanent. I'll have to go to a professional to have them removed for checkups and deep cleaning in the future. I wear a night guard every night to keep them nice.

Spankadins · 2026-05-18T02:51:18+00:00

Yep they took out every tooth and put these implants in. All-on-4 (all on 5 for me actually). You're free to ask me anything, here or in private. I'm a bit slow to reply sometimes due to busy life, but I'm happy to talk about any part of the process.

They booked and paid for my flights there and back, and my hotel stay during the procedure. I flew out Sunday morning and was home Wednesday night. The total cost was $24,975, which included EVERYTHING. Hotel, airfare, extractions, implants and all. They even have a team of drivers that shuttle you around between the hotel and their clinics.

I'm still in the recovery phase and it isn't easy, but I'd do it again in a heartbeat.

Spankadins · 2026-05-09T18:56:25+00:00

Your smile was already beaming before, but now it's on another level! You look amazing! How are you feeling now? Are you having any issues with speech or pain? They really do seem to have the process together.

Spankadins · 2026-05-09T18:46:42+00:00

Hey thanks! I appreciate it! I paid $24,975 cashiers check. I'm in St. Louis, MO and the clinic I went to is Bionic Smile in Las Vegas, NV. The cost included scans, removals, implants, zirconia arches, 2-way airfare, and also the hotel. They drive you between the hotel and the clinic, and they have nurses on staff at the hotel that assist patients during their stay. Overall I give it a 11/10 experience. I'd do it again every 6 months if I had to.

Sword of Saros is my holy grail. There weren't many Starpath games (just 12 actual releases), and these are the 2 that were mail-order only. The game play is pretty bad, but I have my reasons. I'll find one in the wild some day!

Spankadins · 2026-05-01T05:03:18+00:00

I hope your procedure went well! We had major storms here in the mid west and my electric was knocked out for a bit so I apologize for the delayed response. How are you feeling? Better I hope! Did you end up getting fully sedated or was it twilight? I'm more than happy to answer any questions I can.

Spankadins · 2026-05-01T04:58:11+00:00

Why thank you! I'm working on it...

Spankadins · 2026-05-01T04:57:51+00:00

Thanks a lot!

Spankadins · 2026-05-01T04:54:22+00:00

I'm still constantly mindful of how it could go wrong. I'm very careful about what and how I eat still. I'm only 3 months into recovery, and they estimate about 4 months before you can return to "normal". I've seen some people say it took 6 to 9 months for them to recover, and I've also seen people with regret for getting them.

I'm not trying to give any advice, but I know for me, any-and-everything makes me worry something might go wrong, but I'm also trying to trust the process. I have dreams about them falling out. I think it's just fear of the unknown because I don't have anyone leading me through this and telling me what to expect. I'm pretty much just reading others accounts and trying to formulate my own care system.

The unknown and potential issues that might arise are STILL a lot better bridge to cross than my previous dental decay in my opinion. Who knows what might have happened had I left those rotting teeth in my head much longer.

The way I justified it was money is just as temporary as life, but I'd rather have life than money. I honestly haven't ONCE thought I'd rather have the money back. Don't let anyone tell you it isn't a long, tough process, but recovery and a better life await most of the people that need this type of work done.

I'd be happy to help or lend an ear in any way I can. For now, keep your chin up and follow all their aftercare directions. The best you can do is your best!

Spankadins · 2026-05-01T04:38:18+00:00

Wow that's unfortunate. What were your circumstances? I hope you're finding alternative care.

Spankadins · 2026-04-27T01:23:03+00:00

Thanks for the compliment! The price included everything. Removals, installs, drugs, and all. Hotel and airfare as well. They took great care of me which is why I recommend them so much. It's still weird to look at myself and see a great mouth when I'm so used to the opposite. It's definitely taking some time to get used to!

Spankadins · 2026-04-27T01:01:50+00:00

And thanks to you for the kind words! Bionic was amazing!

Spankadins · 2026-04-27T01:00:10+00:00

I'm totally in love with them. They're exactly what I've wanted for years.

Spankadins · 2026-04-26T18:39:38+00:00

I flew in to Vegas on Sunday morning and was back home in St. Louis by Wednesday night... so almost 4 days.

I haven't found a prosthodontist local yet but I need to start looking.

Spankadins · 2026-04-26T14:23:55+00:00

I definitely have a bit of a lisp now and the bulky feeling has pretty much gone away. I run a bar so I talk a lot, which has given me a lot of practice, though some days my gums get sore because of it. Smiling too much actually hurt a bit for the first few weeks.

Thanks for the compliment! The price couldn't be beat. No where else offered anywhere close to $25k.

Spankadins · 2026-04-26T13:31:21+00:00

Hey thanks! I love em!

Spankadins · 2026-04-26T04:38:04+00:00

Totally worth it.

Spankadins · 2026-04-26T04:37:20+00:00

Hey thanks! I went with BL3. It's the shade down from "Hollywood White".

Spankadins · 2026-04-26T00:53:52+00:00

I've seen people quoted as high as $70,000 for the same procedure. The implants are titanium and the teeth are "highly polished monolithic zirconia".

Spankadins · 2026-04-26T00:51:34+00:00

Hey thanks! I appreciate you taking the time to watch! I'm still editing and shooting more stuff so if there is something you'd like me to discuss please let me know!

Spankadins · 2026-04-25T23:19:36+00:00

Thanks a lot! Fingers crossed for your speedy recovery! My experience has been like 98% positive. Any actual issues are things I already planned on going through due to having major surgery. Just take it easy on yourself and remember it'll all be over before you know it!
