All on 6, the questions that matter.
A careful clinic answers every question below in writing without flinching. Here are the six that separate good full arch care from a risky deal, including whether you really need six implants, and the red flags that should stop you. We never name a clinic.

What should I ask a clinic?
Ask who places the implants and makes the bridge and their qualifications, why six implants rather than four and whether you have the bone for them, and whether you get a temporary set on the day. Then ask which implant brand and bridge material are used, whether the final bridge is in the price, how many visits it takes, and what the guarantee covers if an implant fails once you are home.
A clinic that answers these plainly and in writing is the one to trust. Pressure to commit to same day permanent teeth with no assessment is a warning sign. This is general information, not medical advice.
Six questions before you pay.
A safe clinic answers all six without flinching and puts the answers in writing. Use them to judge any clinic you are sent, wherever it is. We never name clinics.
The red flags that should stop you.
The teeth fitted on the day are a temporary set. A clinic promising the final bridge with no healing time is overstating what is safe.
A headline figure that covers only the temporary stage leaves out the permanent bridge. If the clinic will not itemise it, walk away.
No scan to check your bone, or a yes to six implants with no proper assessment, is a reason to look elsewhere.
Ask the right questions, of vetted clinics.
Send one brief and we route it to vetted clinics that answer honestly about candidacy, why six implants, the temporary and final bridge, the brand, and the full cost. You choose, with no pressure.
Free and no obligation. Accredited clinics only. We never sell your details.
How we make money: the guides are free and no clinic can pay to be named, ranked or recommended. We never name clinics. Get Matched is an optional service that helps keep the guides free and independent of any one clinic; using it is always your choice and you are never charged. How this works.
The things everyone asks.
Who should do All on 6 treatment?
A registered surgeon to place the implants and a skilled dental technician to make the bridge. Ask for both sets of credentials, and check them on a public register where you can.
Do I need six implants or would four do?
It depends on your bone and your case. Six can add support, but more implants are not automatically better. Ask why six is recommended for you and what the alternative would be.
Are the teeth fitted on the day permanent?
Usually no. Many cases fit a temporary bridge on the day, with the stronger permanent bridge after months of healing. Ask for the timeline so you know what same day teeth really means.
Is the final bridge included in the quote?
Not always. Some quotes cover only the temporary stage. Ask for the implant brand, the bridge material, and confirmation that the permanent bridge is included before comparing prices.
What should the guarantee cover?
Get in writing what happens if an implant fails, who pays for a revision, and how it would be arranged once you are home. With a full arch a single failed implant can affect the whole bridge, so this matters.
