All-On-4, All-On-6, And All-On-8 dental Implants serve to reconstruct a patient’s smile if the person is suffering from missing or decayed teeth.
These implants offer a permanent, easy, and quick solution for the patient’s teeth, and ensure that the patient doesn’t suffer jaw bone loss, a very common issue when loss tooth is left untreated.
You are probably wondering what’s the difference between these dental implants, and the answer is simple: as suggested by the names, the main difference between All-On-4, All-On-6, And All-On-8 is the number of implants that will be inserted into the jawbone.
Candidates for an All-On-4, All-On-6, or All-On-8 procedure
In general terms, patients who present a significant amount of tooth loss or decay, and any patients who suffer from Periodontal Disease and/or other forms of gum disease.
Let’s learn the basics of the different All-on dental implants:
The All-on-Four creates a full set of teeth using just 4 implants in each jaw.
All-On-6 refers to the surgical implantation of six implants in each jaw. The additional two dental implants from all-on-4 may be required for stability and strength in the mouth, increasing the likelihood of success for your new permanent dentures.
All-On-8 dental implants are used in patients that need some extra security of their full arch implants. This could be due to poor jawbone density, irregular shape of the mouth, or any other issue
