A premium full-arch restoration using six strategically placed implants — providing maximum stability, superior load distribution, and outstanding long-term durability for a confident new smile.
01 — Overview
What is All on 6 Dental Implant Treatment?
All on 6 dental implant treatment is a comprehensive solution for individuals who have lost most or all of their teeth in a single arch. It involves placing six dental implants strategically into the jawbone to support a full-arch fixed prosthesis. The implants act as stable anchors, eliminating the need for individual implants for each missing tooth.
This procedure not only restores full functionality but also significantly improves the appearance and structural integrity of the jaw and face. Compared to traditional dentures, All on 6 provides enhanced stability and eliminates the discomfort of removable prosthetics.
With the added support of two more implants than the All on 4 method, it offers improved load distribution and durability for long-term success — ideal for patients seeking a permanent, natural-looking solution that doesn't shift or need adhesives.
02 — Candidacy
Who Is It Suitable For?
All on 6 dental implant procedures are suitable for:
Individuals who have lost most or all of their teeth in an upper or lower jaw
Patients who want to avoid the instability of traditional dentures
Those with sufficient bone density to support six implants per arch
People seeking a long-lasting, fixed solution for full-mouth rehabilitation
Non-smokers or those willing to stop smoking during the healing period
Candidates should be in good general health and free from uncontrolled conditions like severe diabetes or active gum infections. A comprehensive oral examination including 3D imaging is essential to determine eligibility. Patients with some bone loss may still qualify without grafting, depending on jaw anatomy.
03 — Types
Variations of All on 6 in Antalya
There are a few variations depending on prosthetic materials and surgical techniques. Each type is selected based on the patient's budget, expectations, and functional needs.
With Acrylic Bridge
A more affordable option, often used for temporary restorations or budget-conscious patients seeking a functional solution.
With Composite Teeth
Offers better aesthetics and strength than acrylic — a mid-range option balancing cost and longevity.
With Zirconia Bridge
Premium choice known for maximum durability, lifelike appearance, and resistance to staining or wear.
Advanced digital planning tools such as CBCT scans and CAD/CAM technology help ensure precise fit and long-term satisfaction regardless of the material chosen.
04 — The Process
How It's Done in Antalya
The procedure typically involves two main stages — a surgical phase during the first visit and a prosthetic phase 3–6 months later.
First Visit — Surgical Phase
Consultation & Digital ImagingDetailed clinical assessment with panoramic X-rays or CBCT scan to evaluate bone structure and plan implant positioning.
Implant PlacementSix implants surgically placed under local anaesthesia or sedation — strategically positioned for optimal stability and load distribution.
Temporary ProsthesisIn most cases, a temporary prosthesis is attached immediately after surgery for same-day function and aesthetics.
Healing Period (3–6 Months)Osseointegration takes place — the jawbone fuses with the implants. Patients maintain a soft-food diet and strict oral hygiene.
Second Visit — Final ImpressionsAfter healing, final impressions are taken for the custom permanent bridge.
Permanent Bridge PlacementA custom-made permanent bridge is securely fitted — restoring full chewing function and natural aesthetics.
05 — Recovery
Recovery Timeline & Aftercare
Healing time varies depending on individual health, bone quality, and adherence to post-operative care. Generally, the recovery timeline includes initial swelling and discomfort for 2–3 days, a soft food diet for 2–4 weeks, and osseointegration over 3–6 months.
First Few Weeks
Take prescribed antibiotics and painkillers as directed
Stick to a soft-food diet
Avoid smoking and alcohol
Rinse with saltwater or prescribed mouthwash
Long-Term Care
Brush twice daily with a soft-bristle toothbrush
Floss with special tools designed for implants
Attend regular follow-up appointments
Use an antibacterial mouthwash daily
Once the final bridge is in place, most patients report restored chewing ability, clearer speech, and renewed confidence within a few weeks.

09 — FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Healing typically takes 3 to 6 months, depending on the patient's bone quality and overall health. This period allows the implants to fully integrate with the jawbone before placing the final prosthesis.
Maintain proper oral hygiene by brushing twice daily, flossing with special tools, and using an antibacterial mouthwash. Regular dental check-ups and avoiding habits like smoking are essential for long-term success.
The procedure is generally well-tolerated with local anaesthesia or sedation, and most patients report only mild discomfort afterward. Pain is usually managed easily with prescribed medication and subsides within a few days.
With proper care, All-on-6 implants can last 15 years or more, and the implant posts themselves may last a lifetime. The prosthetic bridge may require maintenance or replacement after 10–15 years due to normal wear.
