Establishing secure connection to Antalya...
John arrived after years of coping with failing, missing and worn teeth. He’d lost confidence in his smile and found eating and speaking increasingly difficult. Specifically:
Extensive Tooth Loss: Multiple missing and failing teeth in both upper and lower jaws, forcing him to rely on soft foods.
Chewing & Speech Issues: Simple meals were a struggle, and he felt self-conscious when conversing with friends and family.
Reduced Bone Volume: Long-term tooth loss had led to moderate jawbone resorption, limiting straightforward implant options.
Self-Esteem Impact: John avoided social events and photographs, worried about his appearance.
Following a comprehensive CBCT assessment and digital planning session, our Opus Smile team recommended full-arch, All-on-6 implant-supported prostheses for both jaws.
Why All-on-6 Was Chosen
Enhanced Stability: Six implants per arch maximised support within John’s reduced bone volume.
Minimal Grafting: Only a single 1 cc block of bone graft was required to optimise implant positioning.
Immediate Function: Temporary fixed bridges were delivered on the same day, allowing John to smile and enjoy soft foods straightaway.
Natural Aesthetics: Custom-designed final zirconia prostheses restored a youthful, lifelike smile.
Alternatives Considered
All-on-4: Risked overloading posterior implants in areas of low bone height.
Removable Dentures: Rejected due to stability concerns and the preference for a fixed solution.
Individual Implants: Would have necessitated extensive grafting and extended the treatment timeline.
Comprehensive Consultation & Planning
CBCT scans and 3D surgical guides were created.
A bespoke treatment plan was agreed, balancing function, aesthetics and duration.
Surgical Implant Placement
Six implants placed in each jaw using guided surgery under IV sedation.
A small bone graft (1 cc) added to the upper right arch for optimised stability.
Immediate Temporary Prostheses
Fixed provisional bridges fitted in both jaws on the same day.
Enabled John to smile and eat soft foods immediately.
Healing & Osseointegration (3–4 months)
Regular review appointments ensured stable bone integration.
Final Zirconia Restoration
Custom-crafted permanent prostheses attached.
Fine-tuning of occlusion delivered a natural, radiant finish.
A Confident New Smile: John can’t stop sharing his smile—and neither can his family.
Restored Chewing Function: He’s back to enjoying a full variety of foods without discomfort.
Renewed Self-Esteem: John feels like himself again, engaging freely in social settings.
Lifelong Durability: With proper care, his All-on-6 solutions will endure.
“Choosing Opus Smile was the best decision I ever made. From the first consultation to my final fitting, the team treated me like family, answered every question, and gave me a smile I never thought possible.”
