This remarkable technique requires only 4 to 6 implants in either the upper or lower jaw to support all the replacement teeth for that dental arch. This procedure is referred to as All-on-4 or All-on-6. It typically involves only one surgery to place all the implants, avoids the need for additional bone grafting procedures, and provides the instant gratification of receiving a full set of temporary teeth immediately on the same day as the initial procedure. As a permanent fixed replacement for all the teeth, the All-on-4/6 dental implant technique achieves unprecedented results with a minimal number of dental implants and surgical procedures, thereby making it an appealing cost-effective solution for permanently replacing a full set of teeth. Once post-surgical healing is complete and the All-on-4/6 dental implants have fully integrated with your jawbone, the temporary appliance is permanently replaced by your customized final appliance. These new permanent replacement teeth are completely secure, stable and function in a similar fashion as natural teeth.
