All-on-6 Dental Implants

What are All-on-6 dental implants?

All-on-6 replaces all the teeth in one jaw with a fixed set of 12 zirconia teeth carried by six dental implants. The teeth are screwed onto the implants, so they stay in your mouth when you eat, talk and sleep, and only a dentist can take them off.

The six implants are spread along the jaw, from the front teeth back towards the molars. Each one takes a share of the chewing force, and together they hold a single set of 12 crowns, made for your face, your bite and the shade you choose. Before anything is done, your dentist plans where each implant goes on a 3D CT scan of your jaw.

All-on-6 is one of the two common full-arch treatments; the other is All-on-4, the same idea with four implants. The fixed teeth on top are the same in both, which is why the decision between them is about the support underneath, not about how your new smile will look.

All-on-6 or All-on-4: what is the difference?

The difference is the number of implants: six per jaw instead of four. Both carry 12 fixed zirconia crowns, both take two visits, and both can be done on one jaw or on both at the same time.

Six implants spread the chewing load between more points, so each one carries less of it; many dentists and patients like that extra support for a set of teeth that has to last many years. Four implants mean less surgery and a lower price, and they can be angled to avoid areas where the bone is thin. Neither is better for everyone. Your dentist recommends one after looking at your 3D CT scan, and your treatment plan explains why. More about the four-implant version is in our guide to All-on-4 dental implants.

Who is All-on-6 for?

All-on-6 is for adults who have lost most of their teeth in a jaw, whose remaining teeth are failing, or who wear a full denture and want fixed teeth instead. It suits people who have enough bone along the jaw for six implants, which your 3D CT scan shows.

Many patients come to us after years of repairs: a crown here, a root canal there, a bridge that keeps coming loose. If most of the teeth in a jaw need treatment, one planned set of fixed teeth is often simpler and lasts better than saving tooth after tooth. If your gums need care first, our specialist in periodontology treats them as part of the same plan.

How All-on-6 treatment works

All-on-6 takes two visits to Kuşadası: a first visit of 3 days (up to 5) for the implants and a second visit of 6 days (up to 8) for your final teeth, two to three months later. Most patients fly home on day 3 of the first visit.

1. Day 1 of the first visit: examination and implants. You have an examination and a 3D CT scan, go through the plan with your dentist, and then any teeth that cannot be saved are removed and the six implants are placed in the same session, under local anaesthetic.
2. Days 2 and 3: checks, then home. Your dentist checks the implants, and after a final check on day 3 you fly home.
3. Two to three months of healing. The implants fuse with the bone. If you need a bone graft or a sinus lift, healing takes three to six months, and your treatment plan says so.
4. Second visit: your final teeth. A digital scan, a try-in of the new teeth so you can check the look and the bite, then the 12 zirconia crowns are fitted on day 5 and checked on day 6.

If you need both jaws, they are treated in the same two visits. The day-by-day plan, written for patients travelling from the UK, is on our page about All-on-4 and All-on-6 in Turkey.

Fixed temporary teeth at your first visit

If you wish, fixed temporary teeth can be fitted at your first visit, and you travel home with teeth in place while the implants heal. They also protect the implants, and for those weeks you keep to softer food.

Your temporary teeth are not your final teeth. At the second visit they are replaced with 12 zirconia crowns made in our own CAD/CAM lab, shaped to your face and checked with you before they are fitted.

What to know before choosing All-on-6

All-on-6 is a big treatment, and knowing what it involves makes the decision easier. These are the points our dentists go through with every patient.

• It replaces all the teeth in the jaw. Teeth that cannot be kept are removed at the first visit, so the plan is made carefully on your 3D CT scan and discussed with you first.
• It needs bone in six places. If the scan shows the bone is too thin in some areas, your dentist may recommend All-on-4 or a bone graft, and the plan explains the choice.
• Healing takes time. Two to three months between visits, longer with a graft; the temporary teeth carry you through it.
• The teeth need cleaning like natural teeth. Brushing twice a day, cleaning under the teeth with interdental brushes or a water flosser, and regular check-ups keep the gums around the implants healthy.
• Zirconia cannot be whitened later. Your shade is chosen with you before the teeth are made, from natural to very bright.

All-on-6, dentures or single implants?

A full denture is the cheapest way to replace a jaw of teeth, but it rests on the gums, needs adhesive and comes out at night. All-on-6 teeth are fixed: there is no plate over the roof of your mouth, nothing to take out, and you can bite into an apple again once your final teeth are fitted.

Replacing every missing tooth with its own implant is the other route. It means many more implants, a longer treatment and a much higher price, and it needs good bone at every tooth. For a whole jaw, six implants carrying 12 teeth give the same fixed result with far less surgery, which is why full-arch treatment has become the usual choice.

How much do All-on-6 dental implants cost?

In the UK, All-on-6 typically costs £12,000–£22,000 per jaw at a private clinic, or £24,000–£44,000 for both jaws. At TUA Dental in Kuşadası, All-on-6 is £3,120 per jaw and £6,240 for both jaws, with hotel and VIP transfer included.

No hidden costs: the price in your treatment plan is the price you pay. It includes the six implants, the abutments, 12 fixed zirconia crowns, the examination, the 3D CT scan, your treatment plan, the hotel, VIP transfers and aftercare. Flights are not included; your coordinator helps you plan them, free of charge.

How long does All-on-6 last?

With good care, All-on-6 implants and their zirconia teeth last for many years. At TUA Dental every implant has a lifetime guarantee and its own implant passport, and the crowns carry a five-year guarantee.

The implants are made to stay; the teeth on top are what you look after day to day. Because the crowns are screwed on, a dentist can remove them for a professional clean or a repair without touching the implants. A night guard is worth it if you grind your teeth at night.
