The treatment

What is All-on-X / All-on-6 dental implants?

The All-on-6 (or All-on-X) dental implant procedure is an innovative solution for replacing missing teeth in the upper or lower jaw. It involves securing a fixed bridge with six or more titanium implants, offering a durable and aesthetically pleasing full-arch replacement.

The approach is particularly suited to individuals with sufficient bone density in the jaw. At Green Lane Dental Centre we generally advise placing more than six implants in each jaw and designing three or four smaller bridges to reconstruct the full arch. This segmented configuration enhances the aesthetic outcome, simplifies hygiene maintenance and allows easier management — if an issue arises with one implant in the future, only the affected segment requires replacement rather than the entire bridge.

In many cases a temporary fixed bridge can be connected to the implants on the same day; in certain instances impressions are taken and the temporary bridge is placed within 5–7 working days.

Many of our patients report that the All-on-6 (or All-on-X) approach provides a more comfortable, secure fit, as evenly distributed pressure when biting promotes enhanced comfort and stability.

Final restoration choices

Two Choices for Your Final Fixed Teeth

Option 1 — Most accessible

Hybrid Full-Arch Fixed Teeth

Hybrid full-arch fixed implant bridge with gum-toned acrylic

Our hybrid full-arch bridge offers a more affordable route to fixed implant-supported teeth. It uses a high-strength, reinforced resin-based restorative material, providing a lighter restoration than a conventional full porcelain/zirconia bridge.

Why consider a hybrid bridge? Fixed to the implants; lower initial cost; lighter restoration; good aesthetics; generally easier to repair or replace if wear develops; and useful where restorative space or biomechanical considerations favour a lighter prosthesis.

Hybrid restorations are subject to wear. Repair or replacement requirements vary with bite, diet, parafunction and maintenance. Our hybrid bridge is provided with a 5-year guarantee subject to written guarantee conditions and required maintenance/review appointments. After that period, replacement is available, subject to assessment and the implants/components remaining suitable.

Aesthetics: acceptable to good

Provides an attractive, natural-looking smile and a significant improvement over missing teeth or removable dentures. It may not offer the same translucency, surface detail and lifelike finish as premium porcelain or zirconia.

Expected lifespan: approximately 5–7 years

With good oral hygiene, regular professional maintenance and appropriate care, the restoration may typically last around 5–7 years before repair, refurbishment or replacement may be required.

Option 2 — Premium finish

Full Porcelain/Zirconia Restoration

Full-arch porcelain zirconia implant restoration

For patients seeking our premium definitive restoration, we can provide a full-arch porcelain/zirconia solution. Your implant dentist will explain the advantages, limitations, maintenance requirements and suitability of both restorative options.

Aesthetics: excellent and highly natural

A refined, lifelike appearance with carefully designed tooth shapes, colour, surface texture and natural translucency — the preferred option for patients seeking the highest level of dental aesthetics.

Expected lifespan: approximately 10–15 years

With good oral hygiene, regular professional maintenance and appropriate care, the restoration may typically last around 10–15 years before significant repair or replacement may be required.

Patient benefits

Benefits of All-on-X

Fixed teeth rather than a removable denture

The bridge is secured to the implants and is removed professionally when required.

Same-day fixed teeth in suitable cases

When adequate implant stability is achieved, a provisional fixed bridge can often be connected on the day of surgery.

Careful use of available bone

Strategic implant placement, including angled implants where appropriate, can sometimes reduce the need for extensive grafting.

Designed around your smile

Tooth shape, size, position and shade can be planned around your facial appearance and preferences.
