All-on-6 replaces a full arch of teeth with a fixed bridge carried by six implants. The extra pair, compared with four-implant designs, is placed further back in the jaw so that chewing force is shared over a wider base.
The wider spread can allow a longer bridge with less overhang at the back and leaves some reserve if a single implant is lost. Its limit is anatomy: the back of the jaw often has the least bone, so grafting or a sinus lift may be needed, which adds time and surgery.
What All-on-6 dental implants involves
A 3D scan maps bone in the molar areas, where the additional implants will sit. Failing teeth are extracted, the ridge is shaped and six implants are placed, generally all upright. If upper back bone is thin, a sinus lift may be done at the same sitting or months earlier. When every implant reaches good stability, a fixed temporary bridge is attached within a few days; if some are less firm, a removable denture is worn while they heal. After 3 to 6 months, scans and try-in appointments lead to a final bridge in zirconia or on a titanium frame, sometimes made in two or three sections.
Who is a good candidate for All-on-6 dental implants?
This option is for people losing all teeth in a jaw who have, or can build, enough bone in the molar region for the extra implants.
- You have reasonable bone volume along the whole jaw on your scan
- You have a strong bite or a large jaw and want force spread across more implants
- You want a full-length bridge with molars at the back
- You accept grafting if the scan shows it is required
- You can come back for the final teeth after healing
Es ist normalerweise nicht die richtige Wahl, wenn:
- People with severely shrunken back jaw bone who do not want grafting
- Anyone whose existing teeth are still treatable
- Smokers unwilling to stop around surgery and healing
- People with poorly controlled diabetes or on medicines that impair bone healing, without medical clearance
- Those who cannot manage daily cleaning under a fixed bridge
Technikoptionen
- Six upright implants: The usual layout when bone allows. It avoids angled connectors and keeps the back overhang short.
- With sinus lift: Bone is added under the upper sinus to make room for back implants. Healing may take 4 to 9 months before loading.
- Immediate fixed temporary: Used only if the implants are very stable at placement. Otherwise a denture is worn during healing.
- Segmented final bridge: The bridge is made in separate pieces so that one section can be repaired without removing everything.
Was passiert während Ihrer Behandlung
Expect 2.5 to 4 hours per jaw, normally under local anaesthetic with sedation. Doing both jaws may be split over two days or done under general anaesthetic. You will be numb for hours afterwards and should plan to rest at the hotel with someone nearby for the first night.
Vorbereitung auf Ihre Reise
Plan for 6 to 8 days, then 7 to 10 days for the final bridge in Istanbul. Your surgeon reviews photographs and your medical history before you book, and you meet in person the day before surgery for examination, marking and consent with a professional interpreter.
- Stoppen Sie das Rauchen und Nikotin mindestens vier Wochen vor und nach der Operation; es ist die größte vermeidbare Ursache von Wundproblemen
- Erzählen Sie dem Team von allen Medikamenten und Ergänzungen, die Sie einnehmen; Blutverdünner, einige Kräuterprodukte und Hormonbehandlungen müssen möglicherweise auf Anraten Ihres Arztes unterbrochen werden
- Vereinbaren Sie, dass jemand mit Ihnen reist oder erreichbar ist, und halten Sie die ersten Tage zu Hause frei von Arbeit und Heben
- Buchen Sie einen veränderlichen Rückflug; Ihr Chirurg bestätigt, wenn Sie fit sind
Genesung und Ergebnisse
Swelling, bruising and jaw stiffness are usual for 7 to 10 days, a little more if a sinus lift was done, in which case you must not blow your nose for about 2 weeks. A soft diet continues for around 3 months. Stitches are checked before you fly home. The final bridge is fitted on a second trip after 3 to 6 months, or later if grafts were used.
- Back to everyday activity: 7 to 10 days
- When results show: Temporary teeth within days if implants are stable
- How long they last: Implants long term; bridge often 10 to 15 years
Sicherheit, Risiken und Revisionspolitik
More implants mean more surgery sites. The main problems are those of any full-arch implant treatment.
- One or more implants failing to integrate
- Sinus membrane tear or sinus infection after upper jaw grafting
- Altered sensation of the lower lip and chin
- Chipping or fracture of the temporary or final bridge
- Peri-implantitis with bone loss over the years
- Longer surgery and more swelling than a four-implant approach
- Difficulty cleaning, leading to gum inflammation and odour

Cost of All-on-6 dental implants in Türkiye
Clinic-Y does not publish a single price for All-on-6 dental implants, because the honest figure depends on your case. What moves it:
- Six implants rather than four, and the implant brand
- Any sinus lift or bone graft
- Material and design of the final bridge
- Type of anaesthesia or sedation
- Number of trips and whether temporaries are fixed or removable

Häufig gestellte Fragen
Is six always better than four?
Not always. More implants help only if they sit in good bone. Four well-placed implants outperform six in poor bone. The scan should drive the decision.
Will I be without teeth at any point?
You should not be. You leave with either a fixed temporary bridge or a denture to wear while healing.
Can I have both jaws done on one trip?
Often yes, but it is a long operation and a demanding recovery. Some people prefer to stage the jaws a few days or months apart.
