All-on-4 Implants in Turkey — Permanent Smile in One Visit

Yes. The "teeth in a day" promise of All-on-4 is delivered by placing a temporary acrylic bridge on the same day as the implant surgery. You leave the clinic with a complete set of 12 teeth on day 2 of your visit. The temporary bridge is functional but not for hard biting; the final permanent bridge is placed 3 months later after the implants fully integrate.

Yes, but with a phased diet. First 2 weeks: liquid and very soft foods only (soup, smoothies, mashed potatoes). Weeks 3-12: soft foods (pasta, fish, well-cooked vegetables). After the final bridge at month 4: full normal diet, including steak, apples, and crusty bread. You will eat better than you have in years.

In 90% of cases, no. The All-on-4 technique was specifically designed to avoid bone grafting by placing the rear implants at a 30-45° angle to use the maximum available bone in the front of the jaw. If your bone is severely atrophied, we may recommend All-on-6 with grafting, or zygomatic implants — your CBCT scan determines the right approach.

Nobel Biocare All-on-4 implants have a documented 95-98% 10-year success rate when placed correctly. The titanium fixtures themselves can last a lifetime if you maintain good oral hygiene. The bridge on top may need refurbishment at year 10-15 (similar to replacing tires on a car). We provide a 10-year warranty on the bridge and lifetime warranty on the implants.

Yes. Many patients do both arches in the same visit (8 implants total). The surgery is longer (3-5 hours total) and recovery slightly more intense, but the outcome is the same — full mouth fixed teeth in 4-7 days. Most patients prefer this "all in one go" approach.

All-on-4 is the ideal upgrade from dentures. We extract any remaining teeth (if any), remove your dentures permanently, and place the 4 implants on the same day as the surgery. You leave the clinic with fixed, non-removable teeth that will not click, slip, or require adhesive. Most denture wearers describe it as a life-changing transformation.

Equally safe in experienced hands. All-on-4 has lower morbidity (less surgery, less bone grafting) but requires more skill in implant angulation. WeCare surgeons have 1000+ All-on-4 cases each. For patients with very heavy bites or specific anatomical considerations, we may recommend All-on-6 — discussed during planning.

No mandatory follow-up trips. We provide free panoramic X-ray and clinical exam at year 1, 3, and 5 if you visit Antalya — but these are voluntary. Day-to-day maintenance (cleaning, professional hygiene) can be done at any local dentist worldwide. WeCare provides a written aftercare manual in your language.
