All-on-4/6 Dental Implants: A Solution for Multiple Missing Teeth
Missing multiple teeth can be a challenging experience, affecting not only your confidence but also your ability to eat, speak, and enjoy life fully. Fortunately, advancements in dental technology have introduced revolutionary solutions like the All-on-4 and All-on-6 dental implant systems. At London Dental Arts, we specialise in providing these life-changing treatments to help you restore your smile and quality of life.
What Are All-on-4/6 Dental Implants?
All-on-4 and All-on-6 dental implants are innovative techniques designed to replace an entire arch of missing teeth using just four or six strategically placed implants. Unlike traditional methods that may require one implant per tooth, this approach provides a full, secure set of teeth with fewer implants, reducing the need for extensive surgery and minimising recovery time.
How Do All-on-4/6 Implants Work?
- Initial Consultation: Your journey begins with a detailed consultation at London Dental Arts, where our dental experts assess your oral health, bone density, and overall suitability for the procedure.
- Implant Placement: During the procedure, titanium implants are placed into the jawbone at specific angles to maximise stability and support. For All-on-4, four implants are used, while All-on-6 involves six implants for additional support.
- Temporary Teeth: A set of temporary teeth is attached to the implants on the same day, allowing you to leave the clinic with a functional smile.
- Healing Period: Over the next few months, the implants fuse with the jawbone in a process called osseointegration, ensuring a strong foundation for your permanent teeth.
- Final Restoration: Once healing is complete, your permanent teeth are custom-made and securely attached to the implants, giving you a natural-looking and durable smile.
Benefits of All-on-4/6 Dental Implants
- Cost-Effective: Fewer implants mean a more affordable solution compared to replacing each tooth individually.
- Efficient Treatment: Many patients can have their implants placed and leave with temporary teeth in just one day.
- Natural Appearance: Customised to match your facial structure, the prosthetic teeth look and feel like natural teeth.
- Improved Functionality: Enjoy eating your favourite foods again without worrying about loose dentures or discomfort.
- Long-Lasting Results: With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime.
Who Is a Candidate for All-on-4/6?
Ideal candidates for All-on-4/6 dental implants include those who:
- Are missing most or all teeth in an arch.
- Have sufficient jawbone density or are willing to undergo bone grafting if needed.
- Prefer a fixed, long-term solution over traditional dentures.
