	The Technology of the Strategic Implant ®	All-on-4 / All on 6 Technique	Conventional / Traditional dental imlpants
Surface of the implant / features	Polished surface, high infection resistance	Rough surface, high chance of permantent infection	Rough surface, high chance of permanent infection
Special Risk of Implant Surface Structure	No risk is known	Frequently permanent inflammation aroud the implant, formation of squamous cell carcinoma cells; (In the case of prolonged peri-implantitis and deep pockets, risk of developing oral cancer due to the uninterrupted inflammatory stimulus)	Frequently permanent inflammation aroud the implant, formation of squamous cell carcinoma cells; (In the case of prolonged peri-implantitis and deep pockets, risk of developing oral cancer due to the uninterrupted inflammatory stimulus)
Bone Augmentation	Never necessary	Wird mitunter begleitend vorgenommen	Often necessary
Contra-Indikationen / special risks	Recent IV-bisphosphonate treatment Permanent functional blockages of muscles or limbs	Recent IV treatment with Bisphosphonates Diabetes Smoking The procedure requires meticulous effforts for cleaning Bone loss; lack of bone Bad bone Chronic periodontitis; Infections in the oral cavity	Recent IV treatment with Bisphosphonates Diabetes Smoking The procedure requires meticulous effforts for cleaning Bone loss; lack of bone Bad bone Chronic periodontitis; Infections in the oral cavity
Number of implants placed typically
Upper jaw:	10 or more	4 (6)	8
Lower jaw:	8	4	6
Treatment time until delivery of the fixed bridge	max. 72 hours	24 - 72 hours	4-6 months; with bone augmentation 1 - 1.5 years
Loading/usage of the implants	Immediately	Immediately	After months or years
Connection implants/abutments	Implant and abutment are made from one single piece of metal	Screw connection to the bridge	Different kinds of screw connection
Type of intervention	Minimally invasive in most cases	Often an invasive intervention with a number of substantial risks & corrections	Often an invasive intervention with a number of substantial risks & corrections
Immediate implant placement after tooth removal	Usually yes; the most effective variant of treatment with hoghest chances of success	Sometimes possible; otherwise tooth removal and a period of wearing an intermediate denture follows	Sometimes possible; otherwise tooth removal and a period of wearing an intermediate denture follows
Occurrence of Peri-Implantitis	Wurde bisher nicht beobachtet	Periimplanttis tritt bei allen herkömmlichen Implantaten auf	Periimplanttis tritt bei allen herkömmlichen Implantaten auf
Mucosal penetration diameter of the implants	2 mm	3,5-5,0 mm	3,5-5,0 mm
Thread diameter of the implants	2.7 - 12 mm	3,5-5,0 mm	3,5-5,0 mm
Necessary bone quality	Not relevant for this treatment	At least D3, better D2 for All on 4 immediate loading protocol	Good bone quality is a necessary prerequisite for all treatment; bad bone quality prevents treatments or leads to prolonged treatment time and long healing times
Estimated costs of treatment (depending on the place of treatment and on the type ofthe bridge material chosen).
Full reconstruction upper and lower jaw::	10.000 - 22.000 Euro	25.000 - 50.000 Euro	unlimited
Segment reconstruaviot (3-4 missing teeth):	3.500 - 6000 Euro	nicht möglich mit dieser Technik	unlimited
Single tooth replacement:	1.300 - 2500 Euro*	nicht möglich mit dieser Technik	unlimited
Number of teeth on the new reconstruction, on implants	12 (from 6 to 6)	10 (from 5 to 5)	Any amount is possible, it depends on the surgical effort and on augmentations
Reasons for failure	Exactly 5 causes of failures are known, and they can be clearly identified by experts. Because the causes of errors are known or can be determined with certainty, they can be avoided or taken into account during corrective treatment.	There are innumerable (at least 30) different theories regarding the causes of conventional implant losses circulating. It is not possible to identify the real causes of failures with All-on-4/6. The situation is the same even if the treatment is repeated (after failure). A possible failure analysis is not based on scientifically comprehensible knowledge but at most on presumptions and misconceptions. Traditional dental implantology is not a true medical science.

Repeated treatment after failures?	Another treatment attempt is usually possible without bone augmentation.	Depending on the extent of the bone loss or the damage done be the 1st treatment, another treatment trial may still be possible. Typically this treatment trial will include bone augmentation.

* as sometimes every root of a tooth must be replaced by an implant, the prices can vary.
