Precision and Predictability: A Comparative Guide to Full-Arch Rehabilitation
In contemporary implantology, the goal is to provide edentulous patients with a total smile transformation that restores both biological function and natural aesthetics. While clinicians often debate between the All-on-4 and All-on-6 approaches , the choice should be governed by a specific clinical philosophy rather than just a numerical count of implants. The All-on-4 Protocol:…

Prosthetic Aspect of Implant Angulation in the All-on-4 Concept: Load Biomechanics and the Influence of Lateral Forces
Introduction The All-on-4 concept represents a predictable therapeutic option for the rehabilitation of edentulous jaws using a fixed prosthetic restoration supported by four implants, where the distal implants are placed at an angle. This approach allows for the avoidance of anatomical limitations, an increase in the anteroposterior spread, and a reduction of the distal cantilever.…
