All-on-6 Dental Implants

Despre All-on-6 Dental Implants

The All-on-6 method restores a complete arch of missing teeth by anchoring a fixed prosthetic bridge to six implants distributed evenly along the jaw, rather than the four used in the All-on-4 approach. The additional implants spread biting forces across more points, which can provide extra stability for patients with higher bite pressure or those who want a broader base of support for a long-term fixed restoration. Candidates are generally patients with sufficient jawbone volume who are missing most or all of their teeth in an arch, whether from advanced periodontal disease, decay, or previous tooth loss. Surgery involves precise placement of the implant posts, guided by 3D imaging, followed by a healing period during which the bone fuses around the implants before the final bridge is fitted; in many cases a temporary fixed bridge is attached soon after surgery. This technique is often chosen over removable dentures because it eliminates the need for adhesives and restores near-normal chewing ability. Indian implant centers typically pair this procedure with in-house dental laboratories, allowing the surgical and prosthetic stages to be planned together and completed over one extended visit.
