Why UK patients trust Taki Dent
The five questions UK patients ask us first about All-on-6 — answered plainly.
The Basics
All-on-6 is a fixed dental implant technique that replaces an entire arch of teeth — upper, lower, or both — using six titanium implants anchored into the jawbone. Unlike removable dentures, the resulting prosthesis is permanently fixed: you cannot take it in or out. It functions, feels, and looks like natural teeth.
What It Replaces
A full arch of missing, damaged or failing teeth. All-on-6 is typically recommended when multiple teeth are lost or when remaining teeth cannot be saved and must be extracted.
How It Works
Six titanium implants are surgically placed into the jawbone. A temporary full-arch bridge is usually fitted the same day. After osseointegration (3–6 months), a permanent prosthesis is attached.
Who It's For
Adults with multiple missing teeth, full edentulism, or failing teeth who want a permanent fixed solution rather than removable dentures. A CT scan assessment determines individual suitability.
The one thing most quote pages won't tell you
Six implants are not automatically better than four.
The right number depends on your jaw — bone height and density, the position of nerves and your sinus, your bite, and how the final teeth are designed. All-on-6 spreads the load across two more anchor points, which suits patients with adequate bone; All-on-4 angles two implants to make the most of limited bone and often avoids grafting. A clinic that quotes you a number before seeing a CBCT scan is selling, not diagnosing.
At Taki Dent, Specialist Prosthodontist Dr. Sadık Taki reviews your scan before recommending a configuration — so the plan fits your anatomy, not a price list.
Select a part to see what it does. Understanding the five layers makes any quote easier to read — and easier to question.
What you see
The final fixed teeth — a full arch of 10–14 teeth in zirconia or acrylic, screwed onto the framework. This is what you see, smile with and chew on. It does not come out.
Understanding Costs
The cost of All-on-6 varies significantly depending on where you have it done, which implant brand is used, and what the quote actually includes. In the UK, private All-on-6 treatment typically costs between £12,000 and £22,000 per arch — sometimes more, depending on whether bone grafting or extractions are needed beforehand.
NHS provision is almost non-existent for this type of treatment, as it is classified as elective rather than clinically necessary in most cases.
Many UK adults are exploring treatment in Turkey or Hungary, where the same procedure — using identical internationally recognised implant systems from brands like Nobel Biocare and Straumann — can cost 60–75% less. The saving on a full-mouth (both arches) case can exceed £20,000.
However, cost is only one part of the picture. Treatment abroad requires two trips, a reliable aftercare plan once home, and confidence that the clinic you select has the clinical standards and communication quality to support you properly throughout. Our quote service connects you with Taki Dent — privately — so you can compare options without committing to anything.

Treatment Comparison
Both All-on-4 and All-on-6 use implants to support a full-arch fixed prosthesis. The key difference is the number of implants: four in All-on-4, six in All-on-6.
All-on-6 provides a wider distribution of loading across the arch, which may suit patients with more available bone or those wanting additional stability in the posterior (back) areas. All-on-4 uses angled implants to maximise bone contact in patients with reduced bone volume, making it suitable for cases where bone grafting would otherwise be needed.
Neither is universally "better" — the right choice depends on your bone volume, jaw anatomy, and what your dentist finds during a CT scan assessment.

Antalya, Turkey
Antalya's Hadrian's Gate has stood for nearly 2,000 years. The city's modern dental clinics, by contrast, are equipped with the latest CBCT imaging, digital implant planning, and premium Nobel Biocare and Straumann implant systems — all at 60–75% less than UK private rates.
Direct flights from most UK airports, English-speaking patient coordinators, and a warm Mediterranean climate make Antalya the most popular destination for UK adults travelling for All-on-6 treatment.

All-on-6 is a well-established treatment, but it is still oral surgery. Any clinic that implies it is risk-free is not being straight with you. Here are the real risks and the concrete steps that lower them.
A small percentage of implants fail to integrate, and gum infection around implants (peri-implantitis) can develop years later. Lowered by a proper CBCT-planned placement, recognised implant brands, not smoking, and keeping up cleaning and reviews.
The biggest risk in dental tourism is picking the cheapest quote. Lowered by verifying authorisation on the official .gov.tr register, confirming the exact implant brand in writing, and checking who the treating specialist is.
Complications can appear after you return to the UK. Lowered by agreeing an aftercare pathway before you travel and lining up a UK dentist to monitor healing and manage any issues.
Osseointegration takes 3–6 months and needs checking before the final teeth go on. Lowered by planning both trips properly and not rushing the permanent prosthesis.
Taki Dent holds the Turkish Ministry of Health International Health Tourism Authorisation (ST-6335), uses Nobel Biocare and Straumann implants, and provides a written guarantee — but you should still verify every claim independently before you travel.
