All On Six
The All-on-6 implant technique is a dental implant treatment method used for patients with multiple missing teeth or complete edentulism. In this method, six implants are strategically placed into the upper or lower jawbone, onto which a prosthesis or bridge structure is attached. This provides patients with a stronger and aesthetically pleasing oral structure.
Before commencing treatment, the dentist evaluates the patient's oral structure and examines the condition of the jawbone through X-rays and radiographic images. The planning phase is crucial for the precise positioning of the implants.
Typically, a maxillofacial surgeon or implant specialist places six implants into the jawbone. These implants, designed to fuse with the bone, create a robust foundation.
Immediately after implant placement, a temporary prosthesis or bridge structure is attached. This ensures that the patient does not remain without teeth throughout the treatment process.
A waiting period is observed to allow the implants to fuse with the bone. This period constitutes the patient's healing process, enabling a strong bond to form between the implant and the bone.
After the implants have healed, the original prosthesis or bridge structure is permanently affixed. This prosthesis caters to the patient's aesthetic and functional needs.
Implants placed using the All-on-6 technique create a strong foundation, leading to a more resilient oral structure. The prosthesis or bridge structure provides an aesthetic appearance resembling natural teeth. Following treatment, patients gain an improved biting and chewing function, enhancing the mastication and digestion of food.
Implants assist in supporting facial contours. Missing teeth can lead to sagging facial features, but implants provide this necessary support.
