All-on-6 Implants: The Complete Guide to Full Mouth Restoration at Laviva Clinic Turkey

Are you tired of struggling with missing teeth, uncomfortable dentures, or a smile that makes you feel self-conscious? All-on-6 dental implants offer a revolutionary solution that can transform your oral health, appearance, and quality of life. At Laviva Clinic in Turkey, we specialize in providing world-class All-on-6 implant treatments at a fraction of the cost you would pay in Western countries.

What Are All-on-6 Dental Implants?

All-on-6 is an advanced full-mouth restoration technique where six strategically placed titanium implants support an entire arch of fixed prosthetic teeth. This innovative approach provides exceptional stability and functionality, making it an ideal solution for patients with significant tooth loss or those dissatisfied with traditional dentures.

Unlike removable dentures that can slip or cause discomfort, All-on-6 implants deliver a permanent, secure foundation for your new teeth, allowing you to eat, speak, and smile with complete confidence. The six implants are precisely positioned to maximize contact with available bone, providing optimal support for your new dental arch.

Key Benefits of All-on-6 Dental Implants

Enhanced Stability and Strength

With six implants instead of four (as in the All-on-4 technique), the All-on-6 approach provides superior stability and strength. This additional support is particularly beneficial for patients with:

• Stronger bite forces
• Significant bone loss
• Need for longer-lasting results
• Desire for maximum chewing efficiency

Preservation of Jawbone Health

When teeth are lost, the jawbone begins to deteriorate due to lack of stimulation. All-on-6 implants mimic natural tooth roots, providing the necessary stimulation to maintain bone density and prevent facial collapse – a common issue with traditional dentures.

Natural Look and Feel

The prosthetic teeth attached to All-on-6 implants are custom-designed to match your facial features, skin tone, and aesthetic preferences. The result is a smile that looks completely natural and feels like your own teeth.

Improved Quality of Life

Patients who choose All-on-6 implants report significant improvements in their daily lives:

• Ability to eat all types of foods without restrictions
• Clear speech without the slurring sometimes caused by dentures
• Elimination of denture adhesives and nightly removal
• Renewed confidence in social and professional situations

Long-Term Solution

With proper care, All-on-6 dental implants can last a lifetime. While the prosthetic teeth may need replacement after 10-15 years due to normal wear, the titanium implants themselves typically remain permanently integrated with the jawbone.

All-on-6 vs. All-on-4: Understanding the Differences

Many patients wonder about the difference between All-on-4 and All-on-6 implants. While both techniques provide excellent results, there are some important distinctions to consider:

Feature	All-on-4	All-on-6
Number of Implants	4 implants per arch	6 implants per arch
Stability	Good stability	Enhanced stability
Bone Support	Less distributed	More evenly distributed
Best For	Patients with good bone density	Patients with moderate bone loss
Cost	Lower initial cost	Higher initial cost but potentially better long-term value
Prosthetic Design	Slightly shorter dental bridge	Can support longer dental bridge

At Laviva Clinic, our expert implantologists will assess your specific situation and recommend the most appropriate treatment option based on your oral health, bone density, and personal preferences.

The All-on-6 Procedure at Laviva Clinic: What to Expect

Our All-on-6 treatment process is designed to be efficient, comfortable, and deliver exceptional results. Here’s what you can expect:

1. Initial Consultation and Planning

Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation, either virtually before you arrive in Turkey or in person at our clinic. During this phase:

• We conduct a thorough examination of your oral health
• Take 3D CT scans to evaluate bone density and structure
• Discuss your expectations and treatment goals
• Create a personalized treatment plan
• Provide a detailed cost estimate with no hidden fees

2. Preparation Day

Once you arrive at Laviva Clinic, we’ll prepare for your procedure:

• Perform any necessary extractions of remaining teeth
• Take final impressions for your temporary prosthesis
• Review your treatment plan and answer any questions
• Prepare surgical guides for precise implant placement

3. Implant Surgery Day

The implant placement surgery is performed under appropriate anesthesia for your comfort:

• Six titanium implants are strategically placed in the jawbone
• The procedure typically takes 2-3 hours per arch
• Special abutments are attached to the implants
• A temporary fixed bridge is secured to the implants, giving you immediate teeth

4. Healing and Osseointegration

After the implants are placed, a healing period allows them to integrate with your jawbone:

• This process, called osseointegration, typically takes 3-6 months
• You can return to your home country during this period
• Your temporary teeth allow you to eat, speak, and smile normally
• Our team provides clear aftercare instructions and remains available for virtual consultations

5. Final Prosthesis Placement

Once healing is complete, you’ll return to Laviva Clinic for your permanent teeth:

• Final impressions are taken for your permanent prosthesis
• A custom-designed, high-quality bridge is created based on these impressions
• The permanent bridge is attached to your implants
• Final adjustments ensure perfect fit, comfort, and aesthetics

Frequently Asked Questions About All-on-6 Implants

How long do All-on-6 implants last?

With proper care and maintenance, the titanium implants can last a lifetime. The prosthetic teeth may need replacement after 10-15 years due to normal wear and tear.

Is the All-on-6 procedure painful?

The procedure is performed under appropriate anesthesia, ensuring your comfort throughout. Most patients report minimal discomfort during recovery, which can be managed with prescribed pain medications.

How soon can I eat normally after getting All-on-6 implants?

You’ll receive temporary fixed teeth immediately, allowing you to eat soft foods. As healing progresses over the first few months, you can gradually return to a normal diet. Once your permanent prosthesis is placed, you can enjoy virtually all foods.

Absolutely! Our dental technicians custom-craft your prosthetic teeth to match your facial features, skin tone, and aesthetic preferences. Most people won’t be able to tell you have implants rather than natural teeth.

How do I clean and maintain my All-on-6 implants?

Daily cleaning involves brushing with a soft toothbrush and using special tools like water flossers and interdental brushes to clean under the prosthesis. Regular professional cleanings every 6 months are also essential.
