All-on-6 dental implants · Izmir, Turkey
All-on-6 dental implants in Turkey, fixed teeth on six implants
All-on-6 replaces a full arch of missing or failing teeth with a fixed bridge anchored to six titanium implants, giving more support across a wider jaw than All-on-4 — something a loose denture cannot match. At JFS Clinic in Izmir, Turkey, your package includes a fixed temporary bridge on the day of surgery, from £4,800.

Am I a candidate?
Who is a good candidate for All-on-6 dental implants?
A loose denture or a mouth with most teeth missing or failing cannot be fixed with a single crown here and there. All-on-6 dental implants mean a full arch of fixed, non-removable teeth carried on six implants placed along the jaw, rather than one implant per tooth.
Full-arch tooth loss, why six implants are often recommended
Once most or all of the teeth in a jaw are missing, loose or badly decayed, replacing them one by one with individual implants becomes impractical — it needs more implants, more surgery and more cost than most patients want. A denture avoids surgery but rests on the gum rather than being fixed to the bone, so it can move when you eat or speak and often needs replacing as the jawbone shrinks underneath it. All-on-6 instead spreads the arch's biting force across six implants, which is why dentists reach for it when the jaw is wider or the bone slightly softer than an All-on-4 case needs.
Signs All-on-6 dental implants may suit you
- You are missing most or all of your teeth in one jaw, or your remaining teeth are failing beyond repair.
- You wear a full or partial denture that moves, clicks or rubs when you eat or speak.
- A 3D jaw scan shows enough bone to support six implants without an extensive graft.
- You want fixed, non-removable teeth rather than a denture you take out at night.
- You do not have uncontrolled gum disease or a condition that would make implant surgery unsafe.
| All-on-4 | All-on-6 | |
|---|---|---|
| Implants placed | 4, with the back two angled | 6, spread along the arch |
| Bone needed | Often works with moderate bone loss | Usually asks for slightly more width or density |
| Biting load | Shared across 4 points | Shared across 6 points, more evenly |
| Typical jaw | Narrower arch, moderate chewing force expected | Wider arch, or stronger chewing force expected |
| Surgery time | Shorter, fewer implant sites | Slightly longer, two extra implant sites |
What to discuss at your All-on-6 consultation
- Whether All-on-4, All-on-6 or a combination with a bone graft fits your jaw, based on your 3D scan.
- Whether one arch or both the upper and lower jaw need treating, which changes your price and timeline.
- What your fixed temporary bridge will look and feel like on the day of surgery.
- The material and shade of your final bridge once the implants have healed.
- Your full medical history, including diabetes, smoking and any medication that affects healing.
This is general guidance, not a diagnosis. Your dentist makes the final decision after seeing your X-ray and jaw scan.
Not every full-arch plan is the same
All-on-6 dental implants, how they compare with All-on-4
"All-on-4" and "All-on-6" describe the same idea — a fixed bridge on implants rather than per-tooth crowns — with a different number of implants carrying the load. Your dentist picks the number from your jawbone, not the other way around.
- 1Straight implants at the front and middle
- 2Back implants angled to use firmer bone
- 3Abutment joining each implant to the bridge
- 4Fixed bridge screwed onto the implants
How All-on-6 implants are placed
| Option | Best for | Implants | Bone graft |
|---|---|---|---|
| All-on-4 | Moderate bone loss, narrower arch, lighter chewing force | 4, back two angled | Often avoided |
| All-on-6Wider arches | Wider arch, softer bone, or a strong bite expected | 6, spread along the arch | Sometimes needed for one or two sites |
| All-on-6 with a graft | Bone loss too advanced for implants without building it up first | 6, placed after the graft heals | Required, adds healing time |
| Removable overdenture on implants | Patients who prefer a denture that clips onto 2-4 implants rather than a fixed bridge | 2-4, fewer than All-on-6 | Often avoided |
The right option always depends on your bone width and density on the 3D scan — your dentist reviews this with you before any plan is agreed.
All-on-4 vs All-on-6, how your dentist decides
The choice starts with a 3D cone-beam scan of your jaw, not with what you ask for. Your dentist measures how much bone width and height is available at each potential implant site, and checks how close the scan sits to the nerve canal in the lower jaw or the sinus floor in the upper jaw. A narrower arch with moderate, even bone loss is usually enough for All-on-4, where the two back implants are angled to reach firmer bone further forward without needing a graft.
All-on-6 is reached for when the arch is wider, the bone is a little softer across more of its length, or your bite is expected to generate stronger chewing forces — spreading the load across six implants rather than four reduces the strain on any single implant over years of use. When bone loss is more advanced than either option can support safely, your dentist may recommend a bone graft before implants are placed, which adds healing time before the final plan goes ahead. None of this is guessed from a photograph — it is read directly from your scan.

What can delay your All-on-6 date
Being able to travel within a week does not mean every jaw is ready for implants straight away. A few things decide your safest plan, and if your scan shows that a bone graft or treating gum disease first would be safer, the plan and date move. Your long-term result comes before the booking.
| Factor | Why it matters | What usually happens |
|---|---|---|
| Active gum disease | Infected gum tissue can stop an implant fusing with the bone | Gum treatment comes first, then implants are planned once it has healed |
| Low bone density or width | Implants need enough bone around them to stay stable long-term | A bone graft is planned before implants, adding healing time |
| Smoking | Nicotine slows healing and raises the risk of an implant failing | You are asked to stop for several weeks before and after surgery |
| Uncontrolled diabetes | High blood sugar slows how quickly implants fuse with bone | Your dentist asks for recent blood sugar readings before confirming a date |
| Blood thinners | They can increase bleeding during implant placement | Your dentist tells you what to pause and when. Never stop prescribed medication without your own doctor's advice |
If you live in the UK, the NHS rarely funds a full-arch implant bridge, and getting any NHS dentist appointment has become harder in many areas. Wherever you go, ask three things before you book: how soon you can be seen, what happens if your scan shows you need a graft, and who checks on your implants once you are home.

The surgery
How All-on-6 dental implants are done, step by step
From the moment the first implant goes in to the moment your temporary bridge is screwed into place, here is what happens during All-on-6 surgery.
Your All-on-6 surgery is usually done under local anaesthesia, sometimes combined with light sedation if you would rather not be fully aware of the procedure. Before anything is placed, your dentist checks your 3D scan against your actual jaw, confirming the position and angle planned for each of the six implants — two toward the front, two in the middle and two angled further back, where bone is usually available even when the very back of the jaw has shrunk.
Any remaining failing teeth in the arch are removed first, and the gum is opened to expose the bone beneath. Your dentist drills a precise channel at each marked position, checking depth and angle against the plan at every step rather than by eye alone.
Inside the jaw

All-on-6 implant placement
Once all six implants are seated at the planned depth, your dentist checks each one for primary stability — whether it grips the bone firmly enough to carry light load straight away. This decides whether a fixed temporary bridge can be fitted the same day; on the rare occasion an implant feels too loose, your dentist may let it heal uncovered for a few months first, rather than risk it failing.
A small healing abutment is screwed onto each stable implant, and an impression is taken across all six at once. This is what your temporary bridge is built from — a full arch of fixed, screw-retained acrylic teeth, shaped and shaded to look natural rather than visibly artificial.
The temporary bridge is then torqued into place, checked against your natural bite so the opposing teeth meet evenly, and adjusted on the spot if one side feels higher than the other. A final X-ray confirms every implant sits exactly where it was planned.
From here, the implants need time to fuse with the bone — a process called osseointegration that typically takes three to six months, during which you eat, speak and smile with your temporary bridge in place. Your final bridge, usually in porcelain or zirconia, is only made and fitted once a follow-up scan confirms the implants have fully integrated.
Recovery, day by day
All-on-6 dental implants recovery time, week by week
Move the slider to any point after surgery. You'll see how most people feel, what they can do and what to avoid.
Recovery from All-on-6 surgery happens in two phases that run side by side. The first week or two is about the soft tissue healing — swelling, mild bruising and a soft diet while your gums settle around the temporary bridge. Underneath, invisibly, osseointegration continues for months afterwards, as bone cells gradually bond to the implant surface.
Your temporary bridge is not just cosmetic during this time — it protects the implants from excess force while they fuse, which is why your dentist asks you to avoid biting hard or sticky food with the front teeth for the first few months.
Typical timeline for an All-on-6 arch. Your dentist may give you a different plan, especially if a bone graft is involved.
| Activity | Week 1 | Week 2 | Weeks 3–4 | Month 2 | Months 3–6 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Diet | Cold, soft foods only | Soft diet, lukewarm food | Gradually widening diet | Most foods, avoiding the hardest | Normal diet, as cleared by your dentist |
| Speaking | Bridge feels bulky and unfamiliar | Clearer speech most days | Close to normal | Normal | Normal |
| Flying | Day 7–8, after your check-up | Confirmed by your surgeon at your check-up | Set by your surgeon after your check-up | Cleared by your surgeon as you heal | No restriction |
| Work | Not yet — rest and soft diet | Most people are back at work | Full days comfortable | No restriction | No restriction |
| Final bridge | Not yet — temporary bridge only | Not yet | Not yet | Follow-up scan booked | Fitted once implants are confirmed integrated |
Typical timeline for an All-on-6 arch, built from the recovery guidance above. Cells marked "Confirmed by your surgeon at your check-up" vary too much by individual healing to generalise — ask at your consultation.

What to expect
All-on-6 dental implants results and your final bridge
Your smile changes the moment your fixed temporary bridge is attached, on the same day as your surgery — there is no period of missing teeth to get through. What changes afterwards is underneath, not visible: the implants gradually fuse with the jawbone over three to six months.
Once a follow-up scan confirms full integration, your final bridge — usually porcelain or zirconia rather than the temporary acrylic — is made to your exact bite and shade and fitted on a second visit to Izmir.
Results vary from patient to patient. Your dentist will tell you what is realistic for your jaw at the consultation.

Questions
All-on-6 dental implants in Turkey, frequently asked questions
How much do All-on-6 dental implants cost in Turkey?
At JFS Clinic, an all-inclusive All-on-6 package is listed from £4,800 (€5,550 / $6,600) for one arch, covering the implant surgery, your temporary bridge, hospital-day care, hotel accommodation and all transfers. Treating both jaws, or needing a bone graft, changes the price, confirmed after your dentist reviews your X-ray and photos.
See all package prices →What does "All-on-6 dental implants" mean?
All-on-6 is a way of replacing a full arch of missing or failing teeth with one fixed bridge, carried on six implants placed along the jaw rather than on each individual tooth. It is not six separate crowns — it is a single arch of teeth supported by six implants underneath it.
Is All-on-6 better than All-on-4?
Neither is simply "better" — they suit different jaws. All-on-4 uses four implants and is often enough when the jawbone is in reasonable condition. All-on-6 adds two further implants to spread the biting load more widely when the bone is softer, the arch is wider, or more chewing force is expected. Your dentist decides from your 3D scan.
Compare All-on-4 and All-on-6 →How soon can I have All-on-6 dental implants in Turkey?
Most JFS patients are in Izmir for their All-on-6 treatment within about a week of their first message. You send two photos and, if you have one, a panoramic X-ray, and receive a personal plan with the dates available. Your dentist confirms the final plan only after your consultation and 3D scan.
From first message to surgery →Can I get All-on-6 dental implants on the NHS?
Rarely. The NHS does not usually fund a full-arch implant bridge, and NHS dentistry itself has long waiting times for a new-patient appointment in many parts of the UK. Most people comparing All-on-6 therefore look at private clinics, at home and abroad, by dentist, clinic and total cost.
Why would a dentist choose six implants instead of four?
Your dentist weighs three things on your 3D scan: how wide your arch is, how dense the bone is along its length, and how much chewing force your bite is likely to produce. When the arch is wider or the bone a little softer, six implants (two toward the front, two in the middle and two angled further back) share the load so that no single implant carries as much strain over years of use. If your scan shows four would be enough, your dentist will tell you so at your consultation.
Will I get temporary teeth on the same day as my implants?
Usually, yes. Once your six implants are placed and your dentist is confident they are stable enough to take light load, a fixed temporary bridge is attached the same day, so you do not travel home without teeth. Your final bridge is fitted later, once the implants have fully fused with the bone.
What problems can happen with All-on-6 dental implants?
As with any implant surgery, possible problems include infection, an implant that does not fuse with the bone, or a temporary bridge needing adjustment. Smoking, gum disease and poor bone density raise the risk of failure. Your dentist screens for these at your consultation.
How soon will I see my final result?
You leave Izmir with a fixed temporary bridge, so your smile changes straight away. The implants then need three to six months to fuse with the bone before your final bridge is fitted. Results vary from patient to patient. Your dentist will tell you what is realistic for your jaw at the consultation.
