All-on-4 & All-on-6 Dental Implants

All-on-4 and All-on-6 dental implants are among the most searched full-mouth restoration solutions for patients looking to replace missing or failing teeth with a strong, fixed, and natural-looking smile. At Master of Dent Clinic, Dr. Elnaz Aslan specializes in advanced implant dentistry, providing predictable, long-lasting results using these innovative techniques.

1. What Are All-on-4 and All-on-6 Dental Implants?

All-on-4 Dental Implants

The All-on-4 implant system uses four dental implants to support a full arch of prosthetic teeth. Two implants are placed vertically in the front of the jaw, while two are placed at precise angles in the back to maximize bone contact, helping many patients avoid bone grafting.

All-on-6 Dental Implants

The All-on-6 technique uses six implants for enhanced stability, strength, and bite support. With more anchorage points, this option is ideal for patients with stronger chewing forces or those wanting the most secure long-term foundation.

Why Both Options Are Popular

Both full-mouth solutions offer:

  • Fixed (non-removable) teeth

  • Immediate function with same-day temporary teeth

  • Natural aesthetics

  • Improved biting, chewing, and speaking

  • Long-term durability

2. Why Choose All-on-4 or All-on-6?

Major Benefits of Full-Arch Dental Implants

  • Fast results: Walk out with a functional smile the same day

  • Bone preservation: Implants stimulate bone and prevent jawbone shrinkage

  • High success rates: Proven techniques backed by decades of research

  • Cost-effective: Replaces an entire arch without using a separate implant for every tooth

  • Confidence boost: Restores a natural, stable, and aesthetic smile

Why Choose All-on-4?

  • Ideal for moderate to severe bone loss

  • Often eliminates the need for bone grafts

  • Lower cost than All-on-6

  • Shorter treatment time

Why Choose All-on-6?

  • Extra stability for patients with strong bite forces

  • Better long-term implant distribution

  • Preferred for patients with good bone quality

  • Ideal for maximum durability and implant longevity

3. When Are All-on-4 or All-on-6 Recommended?

These procedures are recommended for patients who have:

  • Missing most or all teeth

  • Failing dental bridges or crowns

  • Advanced gum disease or tooth decay

  • Loose or uncomfortable dentures

  • Jawbone loss that still supports implant placement

  • A desire for a fast, stable, and natural-looking full smile

Best Timing for Treatment

Full-arch implants may be placed:

  • Immediately after extraction (same-day teeth)

  • After infection treatment

  • After bone healing, if necessary

During the consultation, Dr. Elnaz Aslan evaluates bone density, oral health, bite forces, and aesthetic goals to determine whether All-on-4 or All-on-6 is the ideal solution.

Conclusion: Choosing the Right Full-Arch Implant Solution

All-on-4 and All-on-6 dental implants offer life changing results for patients seeking a permanent, stable, and beautiful smile. Understanding the What, Why, and When helps ensure patients choose the treatment that best fits their oral health needs and long-term goals.
