Severe edentulism: All-on-4 and All-on-6 implants

Full-arch rehabilitation: 10-year success, prices and the two-trip plan.

Total tooth loss is not only cosmetic: it compromises nutrition, speech and the maxillofacial bone structure, which resorbs progressively once functional stimulus disappears. The longer you wait, the more complex and expensive treatment becomes.

Full implant rehabilitation with All-on-4 or All-on-6 systems anchors a full-arch prosthesis on four or six strategically angled titanium implants, using the available residual bone and often avoiding major grafting. Biomechanical success rates exceed 95% at ten years.

The usual plan involves two trips: implants and a temporary prosthesis first, then the definitive prosthesis after osseointegration three to six months later. Each stay is around seven days. Possible complications include peri-implantitis and failed osseointegration, and the procedure is contraindicated with extreme bone resorption where grafting is not viable. Active smoking and poorly controlled diabetes worsen the prognosis.

Mexico, with border hubs such as Los Algodones, is the priority destination for North American patients thanks to proximity and experience. Hungary remains Europe's dental capital, with strict EU standards at highly competitive prices. Turkey delivers complex immediate-load rehabilitation in holiday settings such as Antalya. The usual range is EUR 4,000 to 10,000 per arch.
