Why Would I Need All-on-6 Implants?

What Is the Procedure for Getting All-on-6 Implants?

The first step in the all-on-6 implant process is to have a consultation with your dentist or oral surgeon. During this visit, your doctor will examine your mouth and take X-rays to determine if you are a candidate for this treatment. If you are, the next step is to have the implants placed. This surgery is usually performed under general anesthesia, which means you will be asleep during the procedure. Your dentist will make incisions in your gums and place the implants into your jawbone. Once the implants are in place, your gums will be stitched up and you will be taken to a recovery area.

How Long Do All-on-6 Implants Take?

All-on-6 implants take multiple appointments over the course of several months. The first appointment is for the consultation, which will include a thorough examination of your mouth. If you are determined to be a good candidate for all-on-6 implants, the next appointment will be for surgery. This surgery usually takes about two hours, but it can vary depending on the individual case. Once the implants are placed, you will need to wait for them to heal and integrate with the jawbone. This process can take up to six months. After the implants have healed, you will come back for a final appointment to have your replacement teeth placed.
