A patient recently called asking for an $80,000 FP1 implant bridge — based only on a panoramic X-ray. 🚩 Here’s why that’s a huge red flag and what you absolutely need to know before choosing between FP1, FP2, or FP3 full arch implants.
In this video, Dr. Daniel Choi (Board-Certified Periodontist since 2011) and Dr. Syed (Prosthodontist) break down the truth about FP1 vs FP3 implant bridges that most marketing won’t tell you. We’ll cover why so many patients are being sold “FP1” solutions that are actually FP2 or FP3, and how overlooking bone loss, jaw relationship, or gum tissue can lead to long-term implant failure.
What You’ll Learn in This Video:
✅ The real difference between FP1, FP2, and FP3 implant bridges
✅ Why 95% of “FP1” cases advertised online aren’t actually FP1
✅ The hidden bone removal FP1 marketers don’t want you to know about
✅ How jaw collapse, vertical dimension, and bite affect your candidacy
✅ Why you can’t get an accurate implant cost from just a panoramic X-ray
✅ FP1 risks: aesthetics, speech issues, prosthetic fractures, and implant failure
✅ Why FP3 often gives patients the most predictable long-term results
✅ The marketing myths behind FP1 and 3-on-6 implants
✅ When zirconia is the right material — and why thickness matters for durability
✅ Why FP1 should never be chosen off a “menu” without full treatment planning
Whether you’re a patient researching All-on-4 / All-on-6 dental implants or a dentist trying to understand FP1 vs FP3, this discussion will show you the hidden details that can save you from a costly mistake.
