Dental implants are a great way to replace missing teeth without having to wear an unsightly denture. All-On-6 dental implants use six strategically placed implants to support a full arch of replacement teeth — providing even greater stability and load distribution than the four-implant alternative. If you have lost all your teeth and are looking for a permanent, secure solution, All-On-6 may be the right fit for your situation.
Dental Implants
While All-On-4 uses four implants to anchor a full arch, All-On-6 uses six implants spread more evenly across the arch. The additional two implants provide greater stability, better distribution of chewing forces, and a stronger foundation for the prosthetic arch. All-On-6 is especially well-suited for patients with higher bite forces, patients who want additional long-term security, and those with slightly more available bone who can accommodate the extra implants. Like All-On-4, All-On-6 often eliminates the need for bone grafting and includes a temporary full-arch restoration placed the same day as surgery.
Your All-On-6 treatment begins with a comprehensive 3D CBCT imaging scan to map your bone anatomy and plan precise implant placement. On surgery day, the six implants are placed and a temporary full-arch prosthetic is fitted the same appointment, so you leave with a complete smile. Over the next three to six months, the implants fuse with your jawbone. Once osseointegration is complete, your permanent custom prosthetic arch is attached — creating a fixed, beautiful restoration that looks and functions like natural teeth. Aria Dental offers a $199 3D X-ray, consult, and exam to get started.
Six implants spread across the arch provide a more stable foundation than four, particularly for patients with stronger bite forces or who want maximum long-term security.
Like All-On-4, a temporary full-arch restoration is placed the same day as implant surgery, so there is no period of going without teeth during healing.
The additional implants distribute chewing forces more evenly across the arch, reducing stress on any single implant and contributing to the long-term health of the restoration.
All-On-6 is an excellent option for patients who have lost all or most of their teeth and want a permanent, implant-supported solution with maximum stability. It is particularly beneficial for patients who have adequate bone volume to support six implants, who have higher bite forces, or who simply want the added confidence that comes with additional implant support. A 3D CBCT scan is the definitive diagnostic tool for determining eligibility. Call Aria Dental of Annapolis at (410) 280-5370 to schedule your $199 3D X-ray, consult, and exam to find out whether All-On-6 or All-On-4 is the better fit for your unique anatomy and goals.
