Quick Answer

All-on-6 is a treatment concept in which a fixed prosthesis is supported by six implants in an edentulous jaw. Compared with All-on-4 it widens the support base; suitability is determined by bone volume and bite assessment.

What Is All-on-6?

All-on-6 is a treatment concept in which a fixed prosthesis is supported by six implants placed at strategic positions in an edentulous jaw. The aim is fixed teeth that function close to natural ones — without removable dentures.

How It Differs from All-on-4

Both concepts rehabilitate the edentulous jaw with a fixed prosthesis. In All-on-6, two additional implants spread chewing forces over a wider area. It can be preferred in patients with sufficient bone volume; the choice is made using 3D tomography assessment.

Who Is It Suitable For?

Patients who have lost all their teeth, or whose remaining teeth cannot be saved
Patients dissatisfied with removable (palate) dentures
Patients whose jawbone volume can support the implants

Treatment Process

Planning starts with 3D imaging and model analysis. The implants are placed in a single session; if clinical conditions allow, a provisional fixed prosthesis can be fitted shortly after. Once osseointegration is complete, impressions are taken and the permanent prosthesis is manufactured and screwed in place.

After Treatment

The lifespan of the fixed prosthesis depends on peri-implant hygiene and regular check-ups. Interdental brushes, a water flosser and yearly professional care sessions are recommended.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is All-on-6?

A concept in which a fixed prosthesis is placed on six implants in a jaw that has lost all its teeth. The prosthesis is screwed onto the implants and is not removed by the patient.

What is the difference between All-on-4 and All-on-6?

The difference is the number of implants and the distribution of support. With six implants, forces are spread over a wider area. The right concept is determined by bone volume and bite analysis.

Who is it suitable for?

Patients who have lost all their teeth or are about to, who do not want removable dentures, and whose bone structure is suitable.

How does treatment proceed?

Planning is done with 3D imaging; the implants are placed, and in suitable cases a provisional fixed prosthesis can be fitted within a short time. The permanent prosthesis is made once bone integration is complete.

How is an All-on-6 prosthesis maintained?

Daily hygiene includes cleaning around the implants with interdental brushes and a water flosser. Regular clinical check-ups and professional care are essential for longevity.
