All-inclusive All-on-6 package per arch — 6 implants, surgery, temporary teeth, final zirconia prosthesis, and lifetime warranty.
Why All-on-6 Offers Superior Stability
All-on-6 uses two additional implants compared to All-on-4, providing enhanced load distribution, better long-term stability, and improved outcomes for patients with moderate bone loss.
Superior Load Distribution
Six implants distribute chewing forces more evenly across the arch, reducing stress on individual fixtures. This enhanced biomechanics translates to better long-term survival rates and reduced risk of prosthetic complications.
Greater Stability
Two extra implants provide significantly more retention and stability than All-on-4. Patients report greater confidence when chewing tough foods, reduced prosthetic movement, and a more natural feeling restoration.
Versatile Placement
Six implants allow for more flexible positioning to work around anatomical limitations like sinuses or nerves. Surgeons can optimize placement based on your unique bone architecture, improving long-term success rates.
Better for Bone Loss
Patients with moderate to severe bone loss often benefit from All-on-6 over All-on-4. The additional implants compensate for reduced bone density and provide redundancy if one fixture encounters complications during healing.
Reduced Cantilever
The additional posterior implants minimize cantilever extension (unsupported bridge length), which is the primary cause of prosthetic fracture in full arch restorations. This means fewer repairs and longer prosthesis lifespan.
Proven Excellence
Clinical studies show 97%+ implant survival at 10 years for All-on-6 — slightly higher than All-on-4. The additional implants provide a safety margin that translates to measurably better long-term outcomes for patients.

How All-on-6 Works
All-on-6 uses six strategically positioned implants per arch — two more than All-on-4 — to provide enhanced stability and better load distribution across the restoration.
6 Strategic Implants
Two additional implants compared to All-on-4 for enhanced stability and load distribution
Straight & Angled
Four straight anterior/mid implants plus two angled posteriors to avoid anatomical structures
Reduced Cantilever
Extra implants minimize unsupported bridge extension — reducing fracture risk by 40%
Full Arch Prosthesis
Single zirconia bridge with 12–14 teeth screwed onto all six implants permanently
Your All-on-6 Procedure
From consultation to final prosthesis — the entire journey typically requires two visits to Istanbul over 5–6 months.
Digital Planning
Before you travel, VeaHealth coordinates comprehensive diagnostics — 3D CBCT scan, panoramic X-rays, and digital treatment planning. Your surgeon designs the six-implant configuration virtually to optimize placement.
- Medical history & video consultation
- 3D CBCT scan & X-rays analyzed
- 6-implant surgical guide designed
- Final treatment plan confirmed
- Travel & hotel coordination
Surgery & Immediate Teeth
Under IV sedation or general anesthesia, six implants are placed per arch using 3D-guided surgery. Any failing teeth are extracted. Temporary acrylic teeth are attached the same day — you leave with a full smile.
- IV sedation or general anesthesia
- Tooth extractions if needed
- 6 implants placed per arch
- Immediate temporary prosthesis attached
- Post-op medications & instructions
Recovery & Monitoring
You remain in Istanbul for 5–7 days for daily check-ups. Swelling peaks at 48–72 hours. Your surgeon adjusts temporary teeth for comfort and verifies healing progress before you return home.
- Daily wound inspection
- Suture removal (day 7–10)
- Bite adjustment on temporary teeth
- Pain management monitored
- Soft diet guidance provided
Osseointegration
Implants fuse with your jawbone over 4–6 months. You wear temporary teeth during this period and gradually return to normal eating. VeaHealth monitors your healing remotely via photos and video calls.
- Bone integration progresses naturally
- Temporary teeth remain functional
- Gradual diet progression
- Remote check-ins every 2 weeks
- No travel required during healing
Final Prosthesis Placement
You return to Istanbul for 3–5 days. The temporary bridge is removed and digital impressions are taken. Your final premium zirconia prosthesis is fabricated, tested, and permanently attached to all six implants.
- Temporary prosthesis removed
- Digital impressions & bite registration
- Final zirconia bridge crafted (2–3 days)
- Try-in with shade and occlusion check
- Permanent screw-retention & warranty docs

What the Studies Show
Implant survival rate for All-on-6 at 10 years — slightly higher than All-on-4 due to enhanced load distribution and reduced stress on individual fixtures.
Prosthetic complication rate over 10 years — 40% lower than All-on-4 due to reduced cantilever length and better biomechanical support from additional implants.
Documented implant lifespan in well-maintained All-on-6 cases — confirming that with proper hygiene, biannual cleanings, and regular monitoring, the implants can truly last a lifetime.
