All-on-4 & All-on-6 Method – Your Solution for a Radiant Smile
The All-on-4 and All-on-6 methods are modern dental procedures that allow you to secure a full row of teeth in your jaw with just a few implants. These innovative procedures offer an ideal solution for patients who have lost their natural teeth and want a permanent, stable dental solution without resorting to traditional removable dentures.
What are the All-on-4 & All-on-6 Methods?
The All-on-4 and All-on-6 methods are implant techniques where four or six dental implants are placed in the jawbone to support a complete row of teeth. With these procedures, you can immediately receive a fixed, functional set of teeth that is both aesthetically pleasing and stable. Unlike traditional implants, where each implant is needed for every single tooth, these methods provide a minimally invasive solution with significantly fewer implants.
How Do the All-on-4 & All-on-6 Methods Work?
- Planning and Consultation: First, a comprehensive examination of your jaw and oral health is carried out. This includes X-rays and, if necessary, 3D scans to create the optimal implant plan.
- Implantation: Special implants are placed in four or six areas of the jaw to serve as the foundation for your new set of teeth. In the All-on-6 method, six implants are used to provide additional stability, particularly for patients with less bone volume.
- Fixed Teeth: After the implants are placed, you will receive temporary fixed teeth that are stabilized in your jaw. Within a few weeks, your permanent dental row will be attached to the implants.
- Long-term Solution: After the healing phase, you can eat, speak, and smile with your new teeth without worrying about removable dentures or discomfort.
Benefits of the All-on-4 & All-on-6 Methods:
- Quick Results: You can receive a fixed set of teeth in just a few days, without having to wait long for the full healing process.
- Minimal Invasiveness: Implantation requires fewer interventions compared to traditional methods, where many individual implants need to be placed.
- Natural Aesthetic: The resulting dental row looks very natural and provides an aesthetically and functionally pleasing result.
- More Comfort: Since no removable dentures are needed, you will experience a high level of comfort and confidence.
- Long Durability: All-on-4 & All-on-6 implants are durable and provide a long-lasting solution for tooth loss.
Who is Suitable for the All-on-4 & All-on-6 Methods?
These methods are especially suitable for patients who have lost several teeth or have a complete tooth gap and do not want to wear traditional dentures. Patients with a low level of bone in the jaw can also benefit from these methods because the implants are placed at a special angle to make the best use of the bone.
How Does the Treatment Process Work?
- Consultation: First, we discuss your needs and expectations. After a thorough examination, the most suitable plan for you will be developed.
- Implantation: The implants are placed during a surgical procedure, which is carried out under local anesthesia or light sedation.
- Temporary Teeth: Directly after the procedure, you will receive temporary fixed teeth.
- Permanent Dental Row: After a healing period of a few months, the final teeth will be attached to the implants.
How Often Must the Patient Come and How Long Must They Stay in Istanbul?
- First Stay (1-2 Weeks): The first stay in Istanbul usually lasts between 5 and 7 days. During this period, the dental implants are placed, and you will receive temporary teeth immediately after the procedure. A thorough follow-up examination will also be conducted.
- Second Phase (8 Days): The second phase of the treatment, where the final teeth are placed on the implants, usually lasts around 8 days. During this time, follow-up examinations and adjustments to your permanent dental row will take place.
Aftercare and Maintenance:
- Regular Check-ups: Regular follow-up appointments are necessary to ensure that your implants are healing properly and your teeth remain stable.
- Hygiene: Good oral hygiene is essential to avoid infections and maximize the lifespan of your implants.
