What matters clinically
All-on-6 adds support and cost compared with All-on-4. It should be chosen because the bone and bite plan justify it, not because six implants sounds automatically better.
For all-on-6, compare the written plan more carefully than the headline price. The plan should show material or implant brand, number of visits, temporary work, final restoration, warranty documents, and what happens if adjustment is needed after returning to New Zealand.
