All-on-4/6 dental implants offer three material options: acrylic,
porcelain, and zirconia.
- Acrylic Pure Titanium All-on-4/6 Implants
This material is the most cost-effective choice for All-on-4/6 and
is considered the most traditional. It allows for various shapes
and sizes and is softer and more adaptable than the other two
materials. It is easier to repair if damaged. However, it is also
the most prone to damage among the three materials and may not look
as aesthetically pleasing as natural teeth.
- Porcelain Pure Titanium All-on-4/6 Implants
Porcelain is the most common material used in crafting All-on-4/6
restorations. It can be customized for style, resembling
traditional dental crowns, and offers a good aesthetic appearance.
Its durability is a significant factor for many individuals.
However, it is expensive, and repairing it can be challenging if
damaged.
- Zirconia Pure Titanium All-on-4/6 Implants
Zirconia is becoming an increasingly popular choice due to its
strength and high durability. It offers a beautiful appearance that
can be customized, but it requires experienced technicians for
proper fabrication, contributing to its higher cost. Repairing
damaged zirconia implants is challenging and comes with higher
costs. One drawback is that it may produce loud clicking sounds
when eating (applies to both upper and lower jaws with zirconia
implants), which might be a reason it's not the preferred choice
for most people.
