Prosthetic Options for Full-Mouth Implant Rehabilitation: A Contemporary Review

Full-mouth implant rehabilitation offers a transformative solution for edentulous patients, restoring function, esthetics, and quality of life. With evolving materials and digital technologies, clinicians today can choose from a spectrum of fixed and removable implant-supported prostheses tailored to individual clinical conditions. This review evaluates prosthetic designs, including All-on-Four and All-on-Six concepts, fixed monolithic zirconia and metal-supported prostheses, implant-supported overdentures, and retention mechanisms such as bar, stud, and locator attachments. Emphasis is placed on biomechanical considerations, material selection, digital workflows, and long-term clinical outcomes.

Abstract

Full-mouth implant rehabilitation offers a transformative solution for edentulous patients, restoring function, esthetics, and quality of life. With evolving materials and digital technologies, clinicians today can choose from a spectrum of fixed and removable implant-supported prostheses tailored to individual clinical conditions. This review evaluates prosthetic designs, including All-on-Four and All-on-Six concepts, fixed monolithic zirconia and metal-supported prostheses, implant-supported overdentures, and retention mechanisms such as bar, stud, and locator attachments. Emphasis is placed on biomechanical considerations, material selection, digital workflows, and long-term clinical outcomes.
