All-On-6 Dental Implants In Albania
Advanced Full-Arch Solution

The All-On-6 Procedure Step By Step

Step 1: Initial Consultation Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation at Azzurro Dental. The dentist evaluates your gums, teeth, and jawbone to assess whether All-on-6 is the right solution for your needs and to understand your goals before planning commences.

Step 2: Digital Imaging And Planning Digital X-rays and a 3D CBCT scan are used to assess your jaw structure in detail. This enables precise planning of each of the six implant positions, ensuring optimal placement for both function and aesthetics.

Step 3: Preparation Before Treatment Some patients may require extractions or gum treatment before surgery. This helps establish a healthy and stable foundation for the implants and ensures the best possible conditions for healing and long-term success.

Step 4: Implant Placement Six implants are surgically placed into the jawbone under local anesthesia. Two are positioned at the front of the arch and four are placed further back, creating a broad and evenly distributed support structure for the full restoration.

Step 5: Temporary Restoration A temporary fixed prosthesis is typically attached on the same day. This allows patients to leave Azzurro Dental with a complete, functional smile immediately after treatment, while the implants begin the healing process.

Step 6: Healing And Osseointegration During the healing phase, the implants fuse with the jawbone through a process called osseointegration. This is what gives the implants their long-term strength and stability. Follow-up visits during this period help ensure healing is progressing as expected.

Step 7: Final Prosthesis Placement Once healing is complete, the temporary teeth are replaced with the final custom-made prosthesis. This restoration is designed for a natural appearance, strong function, and lasting comfort suited to everyday life.

Duration of Procedure: 6–8 days (first visit) + second visit after 3–6 months for final restoration.

Implant Brands: Nobel Biocare, MegaGen, Straumann.

Why Choose All-On-6 Dental Implants?

1. Enhanced Stability And Load Distribution: All-on-6 incorporates two additional implants compared to All-on-4, spreading biting forces more evenly across the arch. This reduces stress on each individual implant and provides a stronger, more secure foundation for the final prosthesis.
2. Ideal For Patients With Adequate Bone: All-on-6 is particularly well-suited for patients with good jawbone volume. The six implants make full use of available bone, resulting in a more robust and reliable long-term outcome.
3. Fixed And Non-Removable: The All-on-6 prosthesis is permanently attached to the implants. Unlike traditional dentures, it does not require adhesives, does not shift during speaking or eating, and does not need to be removed at night. Patients experience a level of stability and confidence that removable solutions cannot provide.
4. Natural-Looking Aesthetics: At Azzurro Dental, every All-on-6 restoration is custom-designed to complement your facial features and smile. The prosthesis is fabricated from high-quality materials chosen for their natural appearance and long-term durability.
5. Preserves Jawbone Structure: After tooth loss, the jawbone gradually deteriorates over time. All-on-6 implants stimulate the bone just like natural tooth roots, helping maintain its volume and structure. This contributes to a more youthful facial profile and better long-term oral health.
6. Superior Bite Strength: All-on-6 restores excellent bite force, often exceeding what All-on-4 can achieve due to the additional implant support. Patients can comfortably enjoy a wide variety of foods, including those that would have been difficult or impossible with removable options.
7. Long-Term Reliability: The additional implants in All-on-6 provide a more distributed support structure, which can reduce wear on the prosthesis over time and contribute to a longer-lasting result for patients seeking maximum durability.
