All-on-6 Dental Implants (Full-Arch Fixed Teeth) in Turkey
What is All-on-6?
All-on-6 replaces all teeth in one jaw using six dental implants and a fixed bridge. Two implants go near the front, and four are placed to spread the bite forces across the arch.
Compared with four-implant options, six anchors can increase support, which may help in strong bites, wide arches, or when we want more even load distribution.
Best for: Replacing a full upper or lower arch with fixed teeth supported by six implants for extra stability and load sharing
Surgery: 3–4.5 hours per arch; provisional fixed teeth same day or next day in many cases; full treatment usually 3–6 months
The Problem it Solves
If you have many failing teeth, loose dentures, or trouble chewing, life can feel limited. All-on-6 gives fixed teeth that do not come out, so you can eat, speak, and smile with much more confidence.
How All-on-6 works
Six implants act like strong pillars in the jaw. A full-arch bridge attaches to these pillars. In suitable cases, we fit a provisional fixed bridge the same day or next day (immediate loading), so you walk out with fixed teeth while the implants fuse with the bone (osseointegration). After healing, we make your final bridge to match your bite, shape, and shade.
All-on-6 vs All-on-4 — which is right for me?
All-on-6 offers more support and wider load sharing, helpful for heavy grinders, high bite forces, longer spans, or when bone allows extra fixtures.
All-on-4 often avoids large grafts and can be ideal when bone is limited in the back areas.
We will scan, explain the pros and cons, and recommend the option that is safest and most stable for your mouth.
Who is a good candidate?
You may suit All-on-6 if you:
Have many failing teeth or no teeth in a jaw
Want fixed teeth rather than a removable denture
Have enough bone for six implants (we confirm by CBCT scan)
Can keep good oral hygiene and attend regular reviews
If bone or gum health needs attention first, we’ll plan that into your safe pathway.
The Steps…
Step 1:
Consultation & Digital planning
Photos, X-rays and a CBCT scan if needed. We design the exact implant positions, discuss tooth shape and shade, and give a clear written plan with timing and costs.
Step 2:
Treatment Day
You are numb and comfortable (with sedation where available). We remove failing teeth if needed, prepare the sites, and place six implants with guided placement where indicated. We take measurements or a digital scan for your provisional bridge.
Step 3:
Provisional Fixed Teeth
In many cases you receive a same-day or next-day fixed bridge. It is designed to protect the implants while you heal, so you leave with teeth you can smile with.
Step 4:
Healing & checks (8–12 weeks, sometimes longer)
Implants fuse to the bone. Follow the soft-food plan, keep the area clean, and attend bite checks.
Step 5:
Final Bridge
Once stable, we take final scans and make your definitive bridge for strength, fit, and looks. We fine-tune the bite..
Step 6:
Maintenance & Reviews
We teach simple cleaning under the bridge and set regular hygiene and review visits to keep everything healthy.
Before & After Photos
Materials and Design Options
We’ll help you choose between high-strength acrylic, hybrid (acrylic on metal frame), or ceramic/zirconia. We compare looks, weight, strength, repair options, and cost, so the choice is clear and honest.
Comfort and Healing
During surgery you are numb. After, expect tenderness and swelling for a few days; this settles with simple pain relief, cool packs, and rest. We provide a soft-food guide and cleaning routine so healing stays on track.
Do I Still Need Grafting?
All-on-6 can reduce the need for big grafts, but not always. If bone is very thin, small grafts or sinus lifts may still be safest. We will tell you upfront after scans, so your plan stays safe, clear, and realistic.
Risks and Limits (and how we reduce them)
All surgery has small risks: infection, delayed healing, gum irritation, or an implant that does not fuse. Bites need careful balancing to spread force across six implants. Smoking, uncontrolled diabetes, and poor cleaning raise risks. We reduce problems with digital planning, clean technique, named, traceable components, clear aftercare, and regular reviews.
Results & Longevity
With good care, All-on-6 can deliver stable, natural-looking results for many years. Bridges may need maintenance (repairs, relines, or replacement parts) due to normal wear or grinding. A night guard helps if you clench.
Cleaning & Maintenance (made simple)
Brush twice daily around the bridge and gums with a soft brush
Use super-floss, interdental brushes, or a water flosser under the bridge
Attend hygiene visits and check-ups as advised
Wear a night guard if you grind or clench
Keep gums healthy and avoid smoking
Your Frequently Asked Questions About All-on-6
Why choose six implants instead of four?
Extra support and load sharing. All-on-6 can be helpful for strong bites, wide arches, or when bone allows extra fixtures.
Do I get fixed teeth on the day?
In many cases yes — a provisional fixed bridge is fitted same day or next day. The final bridge follows after healing.
Is All-on-6 painful?
You are numb during surgery. Soreness and swelling after are normal and settle with simple care.
What if I don’t have enough bone?
We check by CBCT scan. All-on-6 can sometimes avoid large grafts, but small grafts may still be safer in thin areas.
Can I choose how my new teeth look?
Yes. We agree shape, size, and shade, then make your bridge to fit your smile goals.
What can I eat after surgery?
Start with soft foods, then expand as your clinician advises. Avoid very hard or sticky items.
How do I clean under the bridge?
Use super-floss, interdental brushes, or a water flosser every day. We’ll show you the easiest method.
How long does All-on-6 last?
With good hygiene and regular reviews, implants can last many years. Bridges may need maintenance over time.
Will my speech change?
Some people notice minor changes at first. Most adapt quickly and feel clearer than with loose dentures.
Is finance available?
For many people yes, because the teeth are fixed and feel more secure. We will still explain all pros and cons for you.
What happens if one of the six implants fails later?
In many cases the bridge can stay in place while we let the area heal. We then plan a replacement implant if needed and reconnect the bridge. We’ll explain your warranty and options in writing
Zirconia vs hybrid bridge — what’s the difference?
Zirconia is very strong and sleek-looking, with fewer joints, but is harder to repair. Hybrid bridges (acrylic on a metal frame) are lighter and easier to adjust or repair, but may need more maintenance over time. We’ll match the material to your bite, habits, and goals.
How often are maintenance visits and what do they involve?
Expect regular hygiene and review visits (more often in year one). We’ll clean under the bridge, check the bite, inspect the implants and screws, and refresh your home-care routine. Staying consistent helps protect results long-term.
Can I have All-on-6 if I’ve had gum disease?
Usually yes, if gum disease is treated and stable. We may plan deep cleaning or other care first, then proceed once the gums are healthy. Ongoing home care and reviews are essential.
How many trips do I need and how long between them?
Most plans take two visits: the first for surgery and a provisional fixed bridge, and the second (after healing) for your final bridge. Some cases can be clustered into a single longer trip; we’ll confirm after scans and planning.
