Both are full-arch dental implant solutions. Both can give you a complete set of permanent, natural-looking teeth. And both are available at <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.smilessence.co.in\/\"><b>Smilessence \u2013 The Specialist Dental Centre<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in Palam Vihar, Gurgaon.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But they are not the same treatment, and choosing the right one depends on your bone structure, your specific dental condition, and your long-term goals.

The two rear implants are placed at an angle &#8211; typically 30 to 45 degrees &#8211; which allows them to anchor into denser bone at the front of the jaw without needing bone at the back.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This angled placement is the defining innovation of the All-on-4 technique. It means that patients who have experienced <\/span><b>bone loss at the back of the jaw,<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> which is extremely common after tooth loss, can often receive a full arch of implants without requiring a bone graft first. In many cases, a temporary set of functional teeth can be fitted on the <\/span><b>same day as surgery<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which is why the treatment is sometimes called &#8216;teeth in a day&#8217;. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Healthy teeth need a healthy foundation.

This is not a removable denture. It is a <\/span><b>fixed, functional set of teeth<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that you can eat and speak with immediately.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The temporary prosthesis is replaced with the final permanent prosthesis after the osseointegration period is complete &#8211; typically 12\u201316 weeks after surgery. The final prosthesis is crafted from high-grade materials to your exact specifications and is designed to last many years with proper care. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Don\u2019t ignore that sharp toothache\u2014learn how a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.smilessence.co.in\/treatment\/root-canal-gurgaon\/\"><b>root canal treatment<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> can save your natural tooth.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is important to note that <\/span><b>&#8216;teeth in a day&#8217; does not mean the entire treatment is complete in one day<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. The implant surgery and temporary fitting happen in one day. The full, permanent restoration is completed after the healing period. Patients who understand this have consistently higher satisfaction with their outcomes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>What if I Have Been Told I Need a Bone Graft?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bone loss is one of the most common reasons patients are told they are &#8216;not suitable for implants&#8217;. The All-on-4 technique was specifically designed to work around this problem &#8211; by using longer, angled implants that anchor into the denser bone at the front of the jaw.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In many cases where a conventional implant approach would require bone grafting, <\/span><b><a href=\"https:\/\/www.smilessence.co.in\/blogs\/all-on-4-vs-all-on-6-dental-implants\/\">All-on-4 or All-on-6 dental implant<\/a> makes the treatment possible without a graft<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. This significantly reduces the overall treatment cost, eliminates one surgical procedure, and shortens the timeline considerably.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, every patient is different. Some cases of severe bone loss may still require grafting before either option is feasible. A 3D CT scan assessment is the only way to know for certain what your specific jaw can accommodate. At Smilessence, this assessment is part of your initial consultation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>How Long Do All-on-4 and All-on-6 Implants Last?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Both All-on-4 and All-on-6 implants are designed to be <\/span><b>permanent solutions<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. With proper care- regular brushing, flossing around the prosthesis, and routine dental check-ups &#8211; the implant posts themselves can last a lifetime.

Is All-on-4 or All-on-6 more painful?<br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Neither procedure is considered particularly painful. Both are carried out under local anaesthesia, and patients typically experience mild soreness for 2\u20134 days after surgery, which is managed comfortably with standard pain relief. Most patients return to light daily activities within 24\u201348 hours.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Q2. Can I get All-on-4 on both upper and lower jaws at the same time?<br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes, it is possible to treat both arches in the same surgical session, though this depends on your overall health and the complexity of your case. Many patients choose to treat both arches simultaneously to reduce total recovery time and the number of procedures. Dr. Vinayak will advise based on your specific situation during the consultation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Q3. How do I clean and maintain All-on-4 or All-on-6 teeth?<br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The fixed prosthesis is cleaned similarly to natural teeth &#8211; with a soft-bristled toothbrush, low-abrasive toothpaste, and a water flosser or interdental brush to clean under and around the prosthesis. Unlike removable dentures, there is no need to take them out at night. A professional clean at your dental clinic every 6\u201312 months is recommended.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Q4. What foods can I eat after All-on-4 or All-on-6 surgery?<br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During the first 6\u20138 weeks after surgery (the osseointegration period), a soft diet is recommended &#8211; soup, yoghurt, mashed vegetables, soft fish, and eggs. Once the implants have fully integrated and the final prosthesis is fitted, you can eat virtually anything you would eat with natural teeth, including crunchy vegetables, bread, and most meats.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Q5. What is the difference in cost between All-on-4 and All-on-6 in Gurgaon?<br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At Smilessence, All-on-4 per arch starts from approximately \u20b92,50,000 and All-on-6 per arch from approximately \u20b93,50,000. The exact cost depends on your bone condition, the implant brand used, and the prosthesis material. For full cost details and to get a personalised estimate, visit our <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.smilessence.co.in\/treatment\/dental-implants-gurgaon\/\"><b>dental implants treatment page<\/b><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> or contact us directly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Q6. Am I a candidate for All-on-4 or All-on-6 if I currently wear dentures?<br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes &#8211; in fact, patients who have been wearing dentures for a long time are among the most common candidates for full-arch implant treatment. Long-term denture use often leads to jawbone loss, which makes All-on-4 particularly relevant since it is designed to work with reduced bone. A 3D imaging assessment will confirm exactly what is possible in your specific case.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><b>Q7. How do I know which option is right for me?<br \/>\n<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The only reliable way to determine whether All-on-4 or All-on-6 is the right choice for you is a proper clinical assessment &#8211; including a 3D CT scan to measure bone volume, density, and anatomy. No website, no article, and no video can substitute for this. What this guide can do is make sure you walk into that consultation already understanding the difference, so you can ask the right questions and make a confident, informed decision.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>Conclusion<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Both All-on-4 and All-on-6 are excellent, proven, permanent solutions for full-arch tooth replacement.
