All-on-6 uses six implants to support a fixed full-arch bridge. Compared with All-on-4, the extra fixtures can spread chewing forces more evenly — useful when bone volume, bite strength or long-term stability point to more support. MSA Smile International plans All-on-6 in Menemen/Izmir for patients travelling from the UK, Ireland and Germany.
What is All-on-6?
Six implants are placed along the arch to carry a fixed prosthesis. Anterior and posterior positions are chosen from CBCT so each implant sits in usable bone whenever possible. A provisional bridge may be fitted when clinically suitable; the definitive bridge follows after healing.
All-on-6 is a planning approach, not a magic package name. Implant brand, abutment design and whether you actually need six (or four, or a staged hybrid) is decided after imaging — never from a social-media price list alone.
All-on-6 vs All-on-4
If All-on-4 would leave implants under high stress for your case, we explain why All-on-6 (or another design) is safer rather than selling the trendiest label.
- All-on-4: four implants, often angled posteriorly — fewer fixtures, selected bone patterns
- All-on-6: six implants — more load distribution for stronger bites or wider arches
- Neither is 'better' in every mouth; bone, occlusion and medical history decide
- Some patients start with a provisional and refine the final design on visit two
Who All-on-6 may suit
Heavy grinding, limited bone in key sites, or complex medical history may still need grafting, zygomatic options or a different prosthetic plan. We map this before you book flights.
- Full-arch replacement when most teeth in one jaw are failing or gone
- Patients wanting a fixed alternative to loose dentures
- Cases where extra implants improve biomechanics after CBCT review
- International travellers who can plan two visits when healing requires it
