Dental implants in Dnipro: All-on-4, All-on-6 or All-on-X — how to choose

If all or most of the teeth in a jaw are gone, a fixed bridge on implants restores both function and appearance within days. The commonest protocols are All-on-4, All-on-6 and All-on-X. In short, the difference lies in the number of implants and in what the bone allows; the final plan is decided from the 3D CT scan.

What a fixed bridge on implants is

It is a full arch of teeth supported by several implants, which the patient never removes. The bridge is stable, it does not rub or fall out, and the chewing load passes through the implants into the bone, which slows its atrophy.

All-on-4 — when four implants are enough

The full arch rests on four implants. Suitable when there is enough bone. Megagen ST implants are used as standard. Indicative prices: surgery from UAH 47 600, the bridge from €5 250 per jaw.

All-on-6 — greater stability

Six implants spread the load better. This protocol is more often recommended when the bone has moderately atrophied. Indicative prices: surgery from UAH 71 400, the bridge from €5 700 per jaw.

All-on-X — the individual protocol

The X stands for an individual number of implants, decided from the CT data. Nobel Biocare, Straumann or NeoDent systems. The price is quoted after the diagnosis.

Guided implant surgery

With a surgical template built from the 3D CT scan, the implants go into pre-planned positions with high precision — less trauma and a predictable result. The template (3–5 units) costs UAH 6 000.

What determines the price

The price depends on the protocol, the number and make of the implants, whether bone grafting or a sinus lift is needed, and the material of the permanent bridge. The exact figure is given after a consultation and a 3D CT scan — the imaging can be done at Houston 3D.
