Understanding the All-on-6 Procedure

Imagine a procedure that can restore your smile's brilliance using just six precisely positioned dental implants. The All-on-6 procedure is exactly that—an innovative technique that replaces an entire arch of teeth with only six implants per jaw. This approach minimizes the number of implants required and maximizes efficiency, making it an attractive option for those looking for both affordability and effectiveness.

Benefits

So, what makes the All-on-6 procedure stand out? It's not merely about aesthetics; it's a comprehensive smile transformation. Whether you've faced extensive tooth loss, struggled with persistent oral health problems, or desire a more secure alternative to traditional dentures, this procedure could be your solution. Here's a snapshot of its benefits:

  1. Enhanced Functionality: The implanted arch of teeth restores robust bite strength, allowing you to relish your favorite foods without limitations.
  2. Boosted Confidence: Wave goodbye to self-consciousness. The All-on-6 procedure grants you a natural-looking, confident smile that can truly elevate your self-esteem.
  3. Preserved Jaw Health: The implants stimulate your jawbone, averting bone loss and maintaining the structure of your face.

What to expect from this procedure when traveling abroad to get it? 

Let's delve into the key stages of the All-on-6 procedure, giving you a peek into what to expect:

  1. Initial Assessment: Your Dentist will conduct a comprehensive assessment of your oral health, employing advanced imaging techniques to tailor a treatment plan for your unique needs.
  2. Implant Placement: Six implants are strategically placed into your jawbone on your first trip. These implants serve as the foundation for the prosthetic arch of teeth. You could expect your first trip to last between 6 and 10 days.
  3. Custom Prosthetic Design: After the implants integrate with your jawbone (for which you would expect a wait time anywhere between 4-6 months), your Dentist will meticulously craft a personalized prosthetic arch. This arch is not only designed to match your natural smile but also optimized for functionality. For this second trip, you should budget between 7 and 10 days. This is mainly to allow for in person adjustments to ensure your total satisfaction.
  4. Secure Attachment: During this last trip, the prosthetic arch is securely attached to the implants, finalizing your transformation into a radiant smile that exudes confidence.

Assessing Suitability: Who's the Ideal Candidate?

Curious if the All-on-6 procedure is right for you? If you've grappled with the challenges of missing teeth or ill-fitting dentures, you could be an excellent candidate. Factors that could indicate that you are a candidate:

  • People who have missing teeth.
  • People who have damaged or decayed teeth that need to be extracted.
  • Those who have compromised teeth due to gum disease.
  • People with reduced bone level and density who can’t have a bone grafting procedure.

When deciding to travel to get an All-on-6 procedure, it is important that you have - or can get - a valid passport before booking any appointments or setting up your travel arrangements. With modern technology you can  share images and other relevant documents with your dentist abroad so that together you can plan ahead.

Weighing Risks and Success Rates

Every medical procedure comes with its set of considerations. While the All-on-6 procedure boasts high success rates, it's crucial to acknowledge potential risks such as infection, implant failure, or discomfort during the healing phase. It's important for you to get in touch with your chosen Dentist before traveling so that they can guide you through the process, mitigate risks, and ensure your comfort and well-being.
