What Are All-on-Six and All-on-Eight Implants?

Dental implants are inserted into your bone in place of natural tooth roots. They also provide support to the teeth/denture/bridge. Together, the implant and the fixed denture work like your natural teeth.

When 6 or 8 implants or “tooth roots” are used to support the upper or lower arch, the system is called “All-on-6″ or” All-on-8″. Know the difference between All-on-6 and All-on-8 dental implants.

Dental implants are an improvement over conventional removable dentures because:

1. Implant posts mimic natural tooth roots and minimize bone loss in the surrounding bone. ^[1]American Academy of Implant Dentistry

2. Their survival rate is excellent and can last a lifetime. ^[2]PubMed – NCBI

3. The denture on implants is fixed and will not wobble or shift in your mouth like removable dentures. This allows you to eat as you would have with natural teeth.
4. The fixed denture does not need to be removed for cleaning.

Dental Implant Procedure

Evaluation

• The dentist will evaluate your oral cavity for treatment planning. To keep a record, they will take pictures, Xrays and CT scans.
• They will also identify the need for any pre-surgery procedures.

Prerequisite Procedures (If Needed)

To make the implant site as healthy as possible, some basic procedures may be done. These include RCT, scaling, and filling.

Bone Grafting (If Needed)

A minimum bone height and width are a must to support the implants. If you have bone loss, your dentist may recommend a bone graft surgery, which helps bone formation.

It takes four to six months for the bone to grow and be ready for implants.

Implant and Teeth Placement

The dentist will give you local anesthesia or conscious sedation. Implants will be inserted in your bone on top of which fixed denture/ dental bridge is fitted.

You can eat soft food as soon as the effect of anesthesia wears off.

Healing Phase

The implant and the bone integrate with each other for 3 – 6 months. This process of healing is called “Osseointegration“.

Porcelain Denture Placement

After the healing is complete, the porcelain denture is placed which can withstand stronger biting forces. You can skip this step if your biting force is not strong.

Should you get All-on-6 or All-on-8?

All-on-6 and All-on-8 are similar in every way except for the number of implants. All-on-8 implants distribute the weight of the fixed denture better because of more number of implants.

All-on-8 implants are chosen over All-on-6 implants when the bone is too soft which may make the denture unstable. Here, 8 implants provide better support and keep the denture stable.

Are All-on-4 implants better than All-on-6 implants?

All-on-4 implants can be placed in your bone even you have poor bone quality and eliminate bone graft surgery. However, if one implant fails, three implants are unable to support the arch. This causes the arch to become non-functional.

In All-on-six or All-on-eight implants, the arch stays functional even if one implant fails.

All-on-4 procedure requires a minimum bone width of 5 mm in the jaw (maxilla). ^[3]Nobel Biocare

Diet and hygiene are crucial in ensuring healthy implants.

Smoking and chewing tobacco should be avoided at all costs. They may delay the healing and cause infection.
