Full arch on six
Six implants sharing the bite
All-on-6 places six implants per arch to support a full fixed prosthesis, offering broader support where bone volume and bite force require it.
Two extra implants spread chewing force, which is why All-on-6 is often discussed for the upper jaw or a heavy bite. Same idea as All-on-4: a temporary in week one, the lasting arch after healing.
01
More fixtures, same staging
Six implants do not mean you skip osseointegration. Visit two still exists.
02
Upper jaw
Softer bone in the maxilla is a common reason the team prefers six over four.
03
Load sharing
Extra posts can help when bite force is high, if the scan shows room for them.
Typical stay
7–10 days for placement and a temporary restoration
Visits
Two visits with a healing interval of several months
Caring for your result
Similar to All-on-4; extra implants add support, not extra downtime
Suitability
Full-arch cases where bite force or bone volume benefits from six implants
What we coordinate
3D planning, six implants per arch, temporary restoration where indicated
Compared with
Four, six, or something else
The scan chooses. A heavier plan is not a better souvenir.
01
All-on-4
Fewer implants, angled back posts, often enough when bone is limited.
02
All-on-6
Six posts for spread load: typical when the upper jaw or bite asks for it.
03
Staged grafts
If bone is too thin even for angled fixtures, grafting is honest, and slower.
The Process
Same week, then months
Extra implants add support, not extra hotel nights in week one.
- 01
Diagnostic assessment and 3D planning
- 02
Placement of six implants per arch
- 03
Immediate temporary restoration where suitable
- 04
Definitive prosthesis after healing
Two visits, six fixtures
Healing still happens at home. The extra posts do not rush biology.
Visit 1
Place six, temporary arch
7–10 days is typical: plan, surgery, temporary, VIP transfer, rest.
At home
Osseointegration
Months. Soft diet first. Follow-up from Antalya stays open.
Visit 2
Final prosthesis
Try-in and the lasting arch. Bite checked before you fly.
Options
Why six instead of four
Not a luxury upgrade: a mechanical one, when the scan says so.
| All-on-4 | All-on-6 | |
|---|---|---|
| Implants per jaw | 4 | 6 |
| Typical first stay | 7–10 days | 7–10 days |
| Often discussed for | Limited posterior bone | Upper jaw / heavier bite |
Typical ranges, not a promise. Individual results vary and cannot be guaranteed.
Eating on a new arch
Same rules as All-on-4: the temporary is not the final.
First week
Usually fine: Soft, cool, small bites
Avoid: Crunching on the temporary
Healing months
Usually fine: Everyday food as advised
Avoid: Hard objects and smoking if you can stop
After the final
Usually fine: Towards normal
Avoid: Skipping hygiene under the bridge
Do
- Clean under the arch daily
- Wear a night guard if you clench
- Keep the second visit
Don’t
- Treat six implants as ‘done’ after week one
- Ignore mobility or pain
- Skip follow-up at home
Ongoing hygiene, periodic professional maintenance and follow-up reviews support longevity.
Global material standards
Certified, original systems on your treatment plan
Every implant and ceramic brand to be used is named on your written outline. Before you travel, you know which recognised materials are planned.
The pieces
What you are looking at
Tap a part to keep it in focus. The explanation stays on the page. Nothing essential is hover-only.
Six fixtures: Spread along the arch so chewing load is shared. Number follows anatomy, not a brochure.
Who it is for
Typical patterns, not a diagnosis. Imaging and the dental team write the real plan.
Who it is for
- Most or all teeth missing in one jaw, seeking a fixed arch rather than a removable denture.
- Able to stay 7–10 days for surgery and a fixed temporary, then return for the final prosthesis.
When we pause
- A single missing tooth. Full-arch on four or six implants is the wrong scale.
- Unwilling to accept a temporary bridge and a healing interval before the final teeth.
A typical stay
Days 1–2
Imaging and consent
3D where indicated, photographs, a written plan you can sleep on.
Day 3
Surgery and teeth
Four or six implants and, where suitable, a fixed temporary the same day.
Days 4–8
Settle, then fly
Reviews, hygiene instruction, a coordinator on the other end of a message.
Months later
The final arch
After integration, the laboratory arch is tried in and fitted.
The first 48 hours
- Swelling and bruising are expected; they typically peak around day two.
- A fixed temporary is for speaking and soft chewing, not steak.
- Sleep elevated. Follow the rinse and medication sheet exactly.
Honest limits
Same-day teeth means a well-made temporary, not the final ceramic. Anyone who sells the opposite is selling a brochure.
Bone volume, bite force and medical history decide four versus six implants, not a package name.
Named on the plan
The fixtures
Named systems on the plan. Unnamed “premium implant” is not a specification.
The bridge
A temporary you can live with, then a laboratory arch in zirconium or the ceramic agreed in writing.
Ask before you book
- 01Will I leave with a fixed temporary, or a removable one, and why?
- 02How many implants per arch, and which brand, will be written on the plan?
The visit
Before, in the chair, and after
Sequences vary. Your written plan names the order for your mouth, not a catalogue.
Before
Why six, on paper
You should see in the outline why six rather than four, or why a different protocol is safer. “Upgrade” is not a clinical reason.
During
Placement stay
Similar length to other full-arch surgery. Extra fixtures add support, not automatically extra days in bed.
After
Healing interval
The final bridge still waits for bone and gum to settle. Home hygiene around six implants is taught before you fly.
Planning
What shapes this plan
None of these replace a clinical assessment. They are the questions the dental team actually uses.
- 01
Bone volume and quality along the arch: six fixtures are a distribution choice, not a luxury label
- 02
Bite force, grinding, and whether the opposing arch is natural teeth, a denture or another prosthesis
- 03
Whether extra fixtures change the need for grafting, or avoid it
- 04
Hygiene access around six connection points
- 05
Willingness to travel twice for surgery then the final teeth
Treatment planning before you travel
Six implants per arch is a clinical choice after imaging, not a marketing upgrade. The file is reviewed first so you know why six rather than four, or why a different protocol is safer.
What you can expect
Placement and a temporary restoration typically sit in one stay. Extra implants add support, not automatically extra downtime. Healing still happens at home before the final prosthesis.
A typical stay in Antalya
A first stay of about 7–10 days is common, with a second visit after months of healing. Dates are built around the flights you can actually take.
Dental travel
Planning this treatment in Antalya
You arrange the flight. Trip4Smile coordinates the plan, VIP transfer, stay support and follow-up around the dental team’s work.
01
Indication, not upgrade
The first reply should say why six. If it cannot, ask again before you book.
02
Stay shape
Surgical week, quieter hotel, VIP transfer around longer chair time. Flights remain yours.
03
Temporary arch
Where suitable, fixed teeth for the healing months. Diet rules are stricter than a brochure photo.
04
Return
Final fit after biology, not after the holiday calendar.
Treatment FAQ
Why six implants instead of four?
Six implants spread the load more widely, which may be recommended depending on bite force and bone volume.
Is the recovery longer than All-on-4?
Recovery is similar; the main difference is the number of implants, not the healing time.
Can I eat normally afterwards?
You will start with softer foods and gradually return to a normal diet as advised by the dental team.
How long until the final teeth?
A temporary bridge is fitted early; the final prosthesis is placed after healing, typically a few months.
When is All-on-6 discussed instead of All-on-4?
When the dental team judges that bite force, bone spread or the opposing arch benefits from two extra fixtures. It is not a prestige version of the same operation.
Does six implants mean faster healing?
No. Healing is still bone biology. Extra fixtures share load; they do not shorten osseointegration.
Is the stay longer than All-on-4?
Often similar for the surgical visit. Your outline names the days. Extra fixtures are not a reason to skip rest.
Can I choose six because I want “stronger”?
Wanting strength is understandable. Indication still comes from the scan. Unnecessary fixtures are still surgery.
What if bone is not enough for six?
Then the honest plan may be four, grafting, a different protocol, or not this treatment. We would rather write that than stretch a name.
How is the final prosthesis different?
It still replaces a full arch. Connection design and material follow the laboratory plan. Six fixtures change support, not magic in the ceramic.
Who performs the dental treatment?
Licensed dental professionals at partner clinics in Antalya. Trip4Smile coordinates planning, VIP transfer and follow-up. We are not the treating clinic.
Can international patients receive this treatment?
Yes. We coordinate for patients who fly in. Photos and history come first; a written plan is sent before you book a ticket.
How is my treatment planned before I travel?
You share smile photos, any recent X-rays and your goals. The dental team reviews the file. You receive stages, a typical stay and what is not included.
What happens after treatment?
You leave with written aftercare. The same coordinator stays reachable once you are home. Your local dentist can use the summary we send.
