All-on-4 & All-on-6 Full Mouth Implants in Vizag Fixed Teeth, Not Loose Dentures
Missing most or all of your teeth? Struggling with dentures that slip when you eat, speak or laugh? Full mouth dental implants using the All-on-4 or All-on-6 technique give you back fixed, stable teeth — scientifically planned at our MVP Colony centre using CBCT-based assessment, modern implant systems and proven surgical protocols.
What Are All-on-4 and All-on-6 Full Mouth Implants?
Full mouth dental implants replace an entire arch of missing teeth — upper jaw, lower jaw, or both — with a fixed, permanent prosthetic bridge supported by dental implants. Unlike removable dentures, these teeth are securely anchored to your jawbone and do not come out, offering far better stability, function and appearance.
All-on-4 Dental Implants
A complete set of fixed teeth supported by just four implants strategically placed in one jaw. Two are usually placed straight in the front, and two at an angle at the back to make the best use of available bone — which often avoids major grafting altogether.
- Moderate to good bone density in the front jaw region
- Bone loss in the back jaw areas (posterior atrophy)
- Patients who want to avoid complex grafting procedures
- Those seeking a cost-effective full arch solution
All-on-6 Dental Implants
Six implants placed across the arch for broader distribution of chewing forces, a slightly longer prosthetic bridge, and enhanced long-term predictability in complex cases.
- Higher bite forces or grinding habits (bruxism)
- Longer jaw spans requiring additional support
- Good bone volume that can accommodate more implants
- Cases where maximum force distribution matters most
All-on-4 vs All-on-6 vs Traditional Dentures
Not sure which option is right for you? The choice depends on your bone quality, bite forces, jaw anatomy and overall health — all assessed during your free CBCT consultation.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Full Mouth Implants in Vizag?
You may be an ideal candidate for All-on-4 or All-on-6 if any of these apply to you.
The decision rests on bone quantity and quality (assessed with CBCT), your bite forces and jaw size, medical conditions and habits such as bruxism, smoking or diabetes control, and the prosthetic design — arch length and material choice. After a complete evaluation, our implant team explains which approach is safer and more predictable in your specific case.
If your remaining teeth need root canal treatment or have gum disease, we address those first — healthy gums and bone are the foundation of long-term implant success.
Your Full Mouth Implant Journey — Step by Step
Every phase is planned jointly by our implantologist, oral surgeon and prosthodontist before a single implant is placed.
Consultation & CBCT-Based Planning
- Complete dental and medical history
- Clinical examination of gums, bite, jaw joints and existing teeth
- CBCT scan of the jaw to assess bone height, width and density
- Photographs and intraoral scans for prosthetic planning
- Clear explanation of phases, timelines, cost range and expected result
Pre-Treatment: Extractions & Gum Prep
- Hopeless teeth extracted where needed
- Gum infections treated and granulation tissue removed
- Bone shaping or minor grafting where required
- In selected cases this is combined with implant placement in a single surgical phase
Implant Placement Surgery
- Performed under local anaesthesia, with optional conscious sedation where appropriate
- Implants placed at pre-planned positions and angulations per the All-on-4 or All-on-6 protocol
- Flap or flapless approach chosen based on bone and soft tissue
- Angled posterior implants often avoid a sinus lift or major grafting
Immediate or Early Provisional Teeth
Where bone density is good, primary implant stability is strong, the bite is favourable and there is no active infection, we can attach provisional fixed teeth the same day or within a few days — what many patients call "fixed teeth in a day".
- With softer bone or medical concerns, we wait the usual 3–6 month integration period
- We never compromise long-term success to rush the timeline
Final Full-Arch Bridge
- Precise impressions or digital scans taken after integration
- Bridge designed with reputed dental labs — acrylic, metal-ceramic or zirconia hybrid
- Screwed or cemented onto the implants
- Shaped to support lips and cheeks and restore your natural facial profile
- Designed with access underneath for daily hygiene
Reviews, Cleaning & Maintenance
- Scheduled reviews at 1 week, 1 month, 3–6 months, then yearly
- Professional cleaning of implants and bridge
- X-rays where needed to check bone levels
- Bite adjustments or screw tightening if required
- Customised home-care kit and written long-term instructions
Full Mouth Implants vs Loose Dentures
Compared with complete dentures, a fixed full-arch implant bridge changes daily life in six concrete ways.
Teeth That Don't Move
Speak and laugh without a moment's worry about dentures slipping at the wrong time.
Stronger Bite, More Foods
85–95% of natural chewing efficiency, against 25–40% for loose dentures. Most foods are back on the menu.
Jawbone Preserved
Implants stimulate the jawbone and slow the resorption that gives long-term denture wearers a sunken look.
Better Facial Support
Lips and cheeks look fuller and more youthful, because the bridge is designed to restore your natural profile.
No Denture Adhesives
No pastes, no repeated relining appointments, no anxiety before a meal out.
Excellent Long-Term Value
A higher initial investment, but far greater comfort and function over 15–20+ years when properly maintained.
Cost of All-on-4 & All-on-6 Full Mouth Implants in Vizag

Aftercare — Life With Full Mouth Implants
Good maintenance is the single biggest factor in keeping full-arch implants healthy for decades.
week
Follow all medication instructions exactly. Use cold compresses as advised for swelling. Eat soft, cool foods in the early days. Avoid smoking, alcohol, and vigorous spitting or rinsing.
mo
Stick to the recommended diet — usually soft or semi-soft foods. Keep excellent plaque control around implants and gum margins. Attend every review appointment for suture removal and integration checks.
long
Brush at least twice daily with a soft brush and non-abrasive toothpaste. Clean under the bridge with special floss, superfloss or interdental brushes. Attend professional implant cleanings at the intervals we advise. Call us straight away if you notice looseness, clicking, swelling, bad taste or pain.
Full Mouth Implant FAQs — Vizag
What is the difference between All-on-4 and All-on-6?
All-on-4 uses four implants per arch, often with two angled back implants to maximise available bone. All-on-6 uses six implants per arch, giving extra support and stability where bone allows. The right choice depends on bone quality, bite forces and treatment goals — we guide you after CBCT evaluation.
Am I a candidate if I've worn dentures for years?
In many cases, yes. Even after long-term denture wear the front jaw bone often remains adequate, while back areas may need angled implants, short implants, or a sinus lift with grafting. A CBCT scan is essential to assess this. In very severe bone loss, zygomatic implants or alternative strategies may be considered.
Will I get fixed teeth immediately?
In selected cases with good bone density, strong implant stability at placement and a favourable bite, we may provide immediate or early loading with provisional fixed teeth. Not every case is suitable — many patients follow a 3–6 month osseointegration period before the final bridge. We will never promise "same-day teeth" without proper assessment.
How much do full mouth implants cost?
At our Vizag centre, All-on-4 typically ranges from ₹2,50,000–₹4,50,000 per arch and All-on-6 from ₹3,00,000–₹5,00,000 per arch, with both arches ranging ₹5,00,000–₹9,00,000. The exact figure depends on implant brand, prosthetic material, and whether grafting, sinus lift or zygomatic implants are needed. We prefer to give an individualised estimate after CBCT planning rather than a generic number.
How long do full mouth implants last?
Well-planned and well-maintained implants can last 15–20 years or longer. Longevity depends on oral hygiene and regular professional maintenance, control of risk factors like smoking, diabetes and grinding, and the quality of the prosthesis and bite design.
Is the treatment painful or risky?
Implant surgery is typically done under local anaesthesia, sometimes with additional sedation. Patients usually describe pressure and vibration rather than pain during surgery, followed by mild to moderate soreness and swelling that settles with medication. Serious complications are rare when the case is planned carefully and post-operative instructions are followed.
What is maintenance like afterwards?
Daily cleaning with a soft brush, interdental aids, superfloss or a water flosser, plus regular implant maintenance visits for professional cleaning and check-ups. Screw tightening, minor repairs or prosthesis cleaning may be needed over the years. We provide a customised home-care kit and written instructions.
I have diabetes or BP — can I still have this?
In many cases, yes — as long as your condition is reasonably controlled and cleared by your physician. We may need recent blood tests and a physician opinion, and antibiotic and medication protocols are adjusted for safety. Systemic issues do increase risk, but proper planning and strict follow-up make treatment safe for many medically compromised patients.
