FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How many teeth are in All-on-4/All-on-6 Dental Implants?
The all-on-4/6 dental implants procedure uses 4-6 implants to support a full arch of teeth. Generally the implants support 10 – 14 teeth. This can be either an upper or lower set of teeth. All-on-4/6 is a great option for patients who are missing all of their teeth, or who have failing teeth that need to be replaced.
Are All-on-4/6 Comfortable?
Yes! All-on-4/6 are designed to be comfortable for the patient. The dental implants are placed in strategic locations in the jaw and the replacement teeth are attached to them. This gives the patient a more natural bite and feel to their teeth. All-on-4/6 also distribute the biting force evenly across all of the implants, which makes them stronger and more durable than traditional dentures.
Are All-on-4/6 removable?
All-on 4/6 dental implants are “fixed” meaning they are NOT removable. The new teeth are secured to the implants using prosthetic screws and only a dentist can remove them. Because they are fixed chewing efficiency is increased to almost 100% of your natural teeth vs. dentures which only provide 20-30%.
Are All-on-4/6 Dental Implants covered by insurance?
Dental implants are usually not covered by dental insurance because they are considered a cosmetic procedure. Oftentimes insurance companies will downgrade coverage meaning if you are missing more than one tooth, they will only cover a portion of the downgraded benefit of a removable partial denture. If you are missing all of your teeth or need all of your teeth removed, insurance usually only covers the cost of a full removable denture.

How much does All-on-4 Cost?
The average cost of a single arch of all-on-4 dental implants is $29,000. This is the industry average, but this can vary greatly depending on location and materials used. If an all-on-4 provider has an onsite lab this can also greatly reduce the cost.

What is the recovery time for All-on-4/6 Dental Implants?
