Questions about all-on-6, one arch
What is the difference between All-on-4 and All-on-6?
Two more implants. In the arrangement described in a 2026 clinical study, All-on-6 places two implants at the front of the jaw and four further back, where All-on-4 uses two at the front and two tilted at the back 7. The bridge, the surgery and the healing are otherwise the same idea 2,7. Full guide: What is All-on-6?
Is six implants better than four?
Sources disagree. In a comparison of 943 patients, five-year survival was almost identical, 98.4% for four-implant and 98.7% for six-implant bridges 8. A separate 200-patient study over 12 months found lower stress on the bone, less bone loss and higher implant stability with six 7. One is long-term and large, the other short-term. Neither settles it. Ask the clinic why it proposes six for you and what your scan showed.
Who decides four or six?
The clinic, from your scan, not from a brochure. In the 943-patient comparison, the clinic chose the number using a decision system based on the height and width of the jawbone plus risk factors such as smoking and other health conditions 8. So All-on-6 tends to be offered where the bone or the risk profile calls for more support. If a clinic quotes six without a scan, ask how it knows.
Will I need a sinus lift for All-on-6?
Maybe, in the upper jaw. The back implants in All-on-6 sit where upper-jaw bone is often thin. If the scan shows too little bone, a sinus lift adds bone under the sinus and heals in about six to eight months before implants can carry teeth 4. A tear in the sinus membrane is the most common complication 4. That adds time and often a trip, so ask whether it is likely and whether it is in the quote.
What does All-on-6 cost abroad?
