All-on-4 and All-on-6 Dental Implants: A Comprehensive Solution for Complete Smile Reconstruction

This method uses four or six implants per jaw as a solid foundation for a prosthetic bridge, allowing patients to regain the function, aesthetics, and feel of natural teeth.

What are All-on-4 and All-on-6 Dental Implants?

• All-on-4: A technique that uses four implants strategically placed in the upper or lower jaw to support a complete row of prosthetic teeth. This method allows for a stable bridge on just four implants, with two implants placed at an angle to increase stability.
• All-on-6: This method uses six implants in the jaw to support a dental bridge, providing additional stability and load-bearing capacity. All-on-6 is particularly suitable for patients with sufficient bone and provides greater strength for jaws that need additional support.

Who are All-on-4 and All-on-6 solutions for?

All-on-4 and All-on-6 techniques are ideal for patients who:

• Have lost most or all of their teeth in the upper or lower jaw.
• Are completely or partially edentulous and want a permanent solution that outperforms traditional dentures.
• Are looking for an aesthetically natural smile with functionality that allows them to chew and speak freely without discomfort.
• Have jawbone that is dense enough to accommodate implants, although additional procedures (such as bone grafting) are possible for those with bone deficiency.

What can a patient expect from the procedure?

• 1. Consultation and Planning: : It all begins with a detailed consultation during which the dentist assesses the bone condition, takes X-rays, and develops a customized treatment plan. Sedation is also available for patients who prefer a pain-free experience.
• 2. Implant Placement: Four or six implants are placed per jaw in one surgical procedure, depending on the method chosen. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, with the option of sedation for minimal pain.
• 3. Temporary Bridge:  After implant placement, the patient may receive a temporary prosthetic bridge, which provides functionality and aesthetics while the implants fuse with the bone during the osseointegration period (approximately 3-6 months).
• 4. Osseointegration: Over several months, the implants naturally fuse with the jawbone, creating a stable foundation for the permanent bridge.
• 5. Final Bridge: Once the implants achieve full stability, the patient is placed with a custom-made final bridge that is custom-made to match the shape, size, and color of the natural teeth.

Advantages of All-on-4 and All-on-6 Implants

• Natural Look and Feel: All-on-4 and All-on-6 provide an aesthetically natural smile that is stable and strong, allowing patients to enjoy a feeling similar to natural teeth.
• Stability and Durability: Thanks to their innovative design, these techniques provide a long-lasting solution, allowing patients to eat and speak freely.
• Recovery Time:  All-on-4 and All-on-6 methods allow for the replacement of an entire row of teeth with fewer implants, but the procedure requires a period of osseointegration, during which the implants bond with the bone. Recovery time can be longer because it involves stabilization and healing, but it provides a long-lasting and stable result that is essential for the functionality and aesthetics of the smile.
• Jawbone Preservation: Implants help preserve the natural structure of the jawbone by stimulating bone, which prevents further bone loss.
