Home/Dental Implant Care and Tooth Replacement/All-on-Four & All-on-Six Dental Implants
Losing most or all of your teeth can affect far more than your smile; it can impact how you eat, speak, and feel every day. At Cornerstone Dental Green Brook, All-on-Four and All-on-Six dental implants provide a modern solution for replacing a full arch of teeth with implant-supported, retained teeth designed for long-term stability and function.
This approach creates a secure foundation that allows the teeth to remain firmly in place, offering a natural feel and confidence in everyday activities. Many patients appreciate the comfort and lasting reliability that come with a restoration supported by dental implants, making it a preferred option for full-arch tooth replacement.
All-on-Four and All-on-Six dental implants are full-arch tooth replacement techniques that use four to six dental implants (or more, when appropriate) to support a complete set of fixed replacement teeth. These implants are strategically placed in the jawbone to create a strong, stable foundation for a custom prosthesis made from cubic zirconia, a highly durable and natural-looking material.
Dr. John Beckwith, our highly skilled implant dentist, personally places every implant post himself, ensuring consistency, precision, and long-term planning from start to finish. As a Fellow of the International Congress of Oral Implantologists (ICOI) and a Diplomate of the American Board of Implantology, he has advanced training and extensive experience in implant dentistry. He also takes a conservative, patient-first approach, often recommending five or more implants when it improves long-term success rather than defaulting to the minimum number.
Patients who are good candidates for All-on-Four or All-on-Six can experience several advantages, including:
Because these teeth are fixed and stabilized, most patients find they feel far more natural and comfortable than removable alternatives.
Not everyone is an ideal candidate for implant-supported full-arch teeth. Dr. Beckwith carefully evaluates each patient’s bone quality, oral health, bite forces, and long-term risk factors before recommending treatment.
You may be a candidate if you:
If implant-supported teeth are not the safest option, Dr. Beckwith will discuss alternative solutions that better protect your long-term oral health.
The process begins with detailed diagnostics, including digital panoramic imaging and CBCT (3D) scans, which allow Dr. Beckwith to precisely plan implant placement. During the procedure, dental implants are strategically placed in areas of strongest bone, with additional implants used when needed to enhance stability. Once the implants are in place, a custom prosthesis is secured to create a stable and functional set of teeth.
Over the next three to six months, the implants gradually fuse with the jawbone through a process known as osseointegration, forming a permanent foundation for the restoration.
With proper care, implant-supported teeth are designed to last many years, often decades. Dental implants themselves can last a lifetime, while the prosthetic teeth may eventually need maintenance or replacement due to normal wear.
Dr. Beckwith’s preference for using additional implants when needed helps reduce stress on the restoration and improves long-term durability.
