What Are All-on-6 Dental Implants?
All-on-6 is a full-arch restoration that replaces a complete set of upper or lower teeth on six dental implants. The extra two implants, compared with All-on-4, spread chewing forces across more anchor points and give the bridge additional support toward the back of the jaw.
A fixed bridge of 12 teeth is secured onto the implants. Patients return to their country with a fixed set of temporary teeth in 3 days, then come back for the permanent bridge once healing is confirmed. Unlike removable dentures, All-on-6 teeth stay fixed in the mouth and let you eat and speak with confidence.
How Much Do All-on-6 Dental Implants Cost?
All-on-6 dental implants in Turkey start from $6,400 per jaw at Soho Dental — roughly 70–77% lower than the same treatment in the US or UK. The table below compares complete treatments rather than per-implant figures.
| Procedure | Turkey (Soho Dental) | US Average | UK Average | Savings |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| All-on-6 (per jaw) | from $6,400 | $28,000+ | £15,000+ | up to 77% |
| All-on-4 (per jaw) | from $5,700 | $20,000+ | £9,000+ | up to 84% |
| All-on-4 (both arches) | from $11,600 | $40,000+ | £18,000+ | up to 84% |
| Single Tooth Implant | from $520 | $3,000+ | £1,750+ | up to 91% |
The price difference between All-on-4 and All-on-6 at Soho Dental is $700 per jaw for the entry-level implant brand — the two additional implants themselves, not a different standard of care. The complete Turkey teeth price list covers every other treatment we offer.
What affects the All-on-6 price?
Your final quote depends on the implant brand (NucleOSS through to Straumann), whether you treat one jaw or both, any bone grafting or sinus lifting needed, the material of the final bridge, and sedation choice. Every possible extra is disclosed in writing after your 3D CBCT assessment — before you travel.
All-on-4 vs All-on-6 — Which One Do You Need?
This is the question almost every full-arch patient asks, and the honest answer is that it is decided by your bone, not by a preference you pick in advance.
| Feature | All-on-4 | All-on-6 | Zygomatic |
|---|---|---|---|
| Implants per arch | 4 | 6 | 2–4 |
| Bone loss severity | ✓ Moderate | ✓ Moderate | ✓ Severe |
| Bone graft required | Depends on the case | Depends on the case | Depends on the case |
| Temporary teeth | ✓ Yes | ✓ Yes | ✓ Yes |
| Load distribution | Four anchor points | ✓ Six anchor points | Anchored in cheekbone |
| Starting price (per jaw) | $5,700 | $6,400 | Custom |
All-on-6 is often chosen when
- There is enough bone volume to place six implants
- The upper jaw is being treated, where bone is softer
- You have strong chewing forces or a heavy bite
- Wider load distribution across the arch is preferred
- The plan allows for additional posterior support
All-on-4 may be the better fit when
- Available bone suits four well-positioned implants
- Angling the rear implants makes the most of existing bone
- A more economical full-arch plan is the priority
- Fewer surgical sites is clinically preferable for you
A CBCT assessment and examination with your surgeon confirms the right choice for you. Read more about the alternative on our All-on-4 dental implants page, or see the full dental implants in Turkey overview.
What's Included — All-on-6 Package
Every Soho Dental All-on-6 package is quoted with transparent pricing and includes:
- 6 branded dental implants (one arch)
- 12 fixed temporary teeth
- 12 final permanent teeth (after healing period)
- Surgical planning with 3D CBCT imaging
- Local anaesthesia and all in-stay follow-ups
- VIP airport ↔ hotel transfers
- All laboratory work
What may not be included
Advanced bone grafting or sinus lifting (only if your CBCT shows it is needed), IV or general sedation, and extra hotel nights are quoted separately — always transparently, and always before you travel. Flights and travel insurance are not included.
Who Is a Good Candidate for All-on-6?
You are likely a good candidate if you
- Have lost most or all teeth in one or both jaws
- Have failing teeth that need extraction
- Have enough bone volume for six implants
- Are in reasonable general health
- Have healthy (or treatable) gums
- Want a fixed, non-removable solution
- Are committed to good oral hygiene
Additional planning is needed if you
- Have advanced bone loss in the posterior jaw
- Have untreated gum disease
- Smoke heavily — the most common cause of implant failure worldwide
- Have uncontrolled diabetes or take bone-density medication
- Grind your teeth without a night guard
Your CBCT scan at the clinic accompanied by a comprehensive examination with your surgeon will decide whether six implants can be placed as planned, or whether a different approach suits your case better.
The All-on-6 Procedure — Step by Step
- 1
Free Online Consultation & Quote
Send your X-rays or photos on WhatsApp or email. A specialist reviews your case and sends a transparent All-on-6 plan within 24 hours — no obligation.
- 2
Day 1 — CBCT Imaging & Surgical Planning
A 3D CBCT scan measures bone height, width and density at each planned implant site. Your surgeon confirms implant positions and angles, and reviews whether grafting or a sinus lift is needed before anything is booked into the surgical plan.
- 3
Day 2 — Extractions & Implant Placement
Any remaining failing teeth are removed and six implants are placed under local anaesthetic, with IV sedation available. The surgery itself typically takes two to three hours per arch.
- 4
Day 3 — Fixed Temporary Teeth
Your fixed temporary bridge is fitted and the bite adjusted. Patients return to their country with a fixed set of temporary teeth in 3 days.
- 5
3–6 Months — Healing at Home
The implants fuse with the jawbone while you go about normal daily life on your temporary bridge. Our team follows up remotely throughout.
- 6
Second Visit — Final Permanent Teeth
Over 6–7 working days your permanent bridge is produced by our partner laboratory with CAD/CAM lab work, tried in, adjusted and fitted.
How Long Do I Need to Stay in Istanbul?
All-on-6 is completed over two visits, with a 3–6 month healing period at home in between:
- Visit 1 (implant placement): 3 working days — surgery and fixed temporary teeth.
- Healing at home: 3–6 months of normal daily life with your temporary teeth.
- Visit 2 (final teeth): 6–7 working days to fit your permanent bridge.
Hotel accommodation and VIP airport ↔ hotel transfers are arranged by your coordinator according to your flights and individual package conditions. All relevant details are shared transparently with you before you travel. See the full treatment journey for international patients.
All-on-6 Recovery & Aftercare
Most patients are back to light daily activity within a day or two. Full osseointegration takes 3–6 months, during which you wear your fixed temporary teeth.
- 1
Days 1–7
Mild swelling and bruising peak around day 2–3, then settle. Stick to soft, lukewarm foods, take the medication provided, and avoid smoking, straws and strenuous exercise.
- 2
Weeks 2–6
Soft tissue heals and comfort returns. Gradually reintroduce firmer foods on your temporary bridge and keep the area meticulously clean.
- 3
Months 2–6
Implants fully fuse with the jawbone. You return to Istanbul for your permanent bridge once healing is confirmed.
When to contact your clinician
Get in touch promptly if you have swelling that worsens after day 3, bleeding that will not stop, fever, a loose temporary bridge, or pain not controlled by your medication. Our team provides remote follow-up throughout your healing period.
Advantages & Disadvantages of All-on-6
Advantages
- Six anchor points spread chewing load across the arch
- Additional support toward the back of the jaw
- Fixed, non-removable bridge of 12 teeth
- Fixed temporary teeth within 3 days of surgery
- Well suited to the upper jaw, where bone is softer
Disadvantages
- Costs more than All-on-4 — two extra implants per arch
- Requires more bone volume than All-on-4
- More surgical sites, so slightly more post-operative swelling
- Not suitable where posterior bone loss is severe
- Two trips are needed, with 3–6 months of healing between them
Alternatives to All-on-6
All-on-4
Four implants per arch, with the rear two angled to make the most of available bone. Less costly and requires less bone volume, with the same fixed bridge of 12 teeth.
Zygomatic implants
Where upper-jaw bone loss is severe, implants anchored in the cheekbone avoid extensive grafting. A more specialised surgery, quoted per case.
Implant-supported overdenture
A denture that clips onto two to four implants. Removable for cleaning, more economical, but less stable than a fixed bridge.
Individual implants
Replacing teeth one by one. Not a full-arch option — it involves more surgery and higher costs across a whole jaw.
Implant Brands We Use for All-on-6

Is All-on-6 Treatment Safe in Turkey? What International Patients Should Check
All-on-6 treatment can be performed safely in Türkiye when it is provided by an appropriately authorized healthcare facility and planned according to the patient's individual clinical needs.
Soho Dental Clinic holds an International Health Tourism Authorization Certificate under the Republic of Türkiye Ministry of Health framework. Our authorization can be verified through the Ministry of Health's official list of authorized healthcare providers, and our clinic profile is listed on Health Türkiye, the Ministry's health-tourism platform.
For complex full-arch treatment, authorization is only one part of the decision. Patients should also consider who is planning and performing the treatment, how implant positions are determined, which implant system and restorative materials are being used, and what aftercare is available after returning home.
Independent patient reviews and video interviews are worth checking for any clinic you shortlist, including ours.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything international patients ask about All-on-6 in Turkey — cost, how it compares with All-on-4, bone requirements, timeline and results. Still unsure? Message us for a free, no-obligation assessment.
All-on-6 starts from $6,400 per jaw at Soho Dental — covering six implants, 12 fixed temporary teeth, 12 final permanent teeth, 3D CBCT surgical planning and VIP airport ↔ hotel transfers, with hotel accommodation according to package conditions. That is roughly 70–77% less than the $28,000+ typically charged in the US.
The number of implants supporting the arch. All-on-4 uses four, with the rear two angled to make the most of available bone; All-on-6 uses six, spreading chewing load across more anchor points and adding support toward the back of the jaw. All-on-6 needs more bone volume and costs $700 more per jaw at entry level. A CBCT assessment and examination with your surgeon confirms the right choice for you.
Neither is universally better — they suit different jaws. Six implants distribute force more widely and are often chosen for the upper jaw, where bone is softer, or for patients with strong chewing forces. Four implants can be the better plan where bone volume is limited or fewer surgical sites is clinically preferable. The decision is made from your CBCT scan, not from a preference chosen in advance.
All-on-6 needs two visits: 3 working days for implant placement and fixed temporary teeth, then 6–7 working days at a second visit for the final bridge. Between them is a 3–6 month healing period you spend at home on your temporary teeth.
It depends on the case. Six implants require more bone volume than four, so grafting or a sinus lift is more often part of an All-on-6 plan than an All-on-4 one — but many patients need neither. Your CBCT scan measures bone height, width and density at each planned site and settles the question before you travel.
Surgery is performed under local anaesthetic — you feel pressure but not pain. IV twilight sedation is available for anxious patients. Post-operative discomfort is usually mild and managed with the medication provided; most patients find it far more comfortable than expected.
Twelve per arch. Six implants support a fixed bridge of 12 teeth — first a set of fixed temporary teeth fitted within 3 days of surgery, then the permanent bridge after the healing period.
The implant fixtures are permanent. The full-arch bridge is fixed — not removable by you — but can be replaced or repaired by your dentist if ever needed. It is a long-term, stable solution.
Primarily the Straumann Group — its flagship Straumann (Swiss) system and Neodent, the group's own brand. NucleOSS, Megagen and Hiossen are also available across package tiers; Hiossen is an Osstem Group brand and NucleOSS is a certified local brand. We do not use unbranded systems — every implant carries full manufacturer documentation and a brand-supported warranty.
No. Your price is confirmed in writing before you travel. The only exception is if an on-arrival CBCT reveals an unexpected clinical issue — which we discuss transparently before proceeding. We include foreseeable extras such as grafting and sinus lifting in the written quote.
Yes, and it is common. The upper and lower jaws differ in bone density and available volume, so the two arches are planned independently. Your CBCT scan determines what each jaw needs, and combined cases are quoted as a single plan.
Yes — see the before & after gallery above, plus our patient reviews and video interviews. Over 3,000 international patients have been treated at Soho Dental. We also recommend checking independent reviews on Google and Trustpilot before booking any clinic.
