All-on-8: Ultimate Full-Arch Restoration for Maximum Stability
Overview
The All-on-8 dental implant technique offers the most comprehensive solution for individuals with extensive tooth loss, providing a full-arch restoration supported by eight dental implants. This procedure ensures the highest level of stability and support for prosthetic teeth, enhancing both function and aesthetics. The All-on-8 technique is ideal for those seeking a durable, long-lasting solution for missing teeth. Our expert dental surgeons in Turkey utilize the latest techniques to ensure optimal results and a high level of patient satisfaction.
Procedure Options
- Standard All-on-8: Involves placing eight dental implants in the upper or lower jaw to support a full arch of fixed prosthetic teeth. This option is suitable for patients with sufficient jawbone density.
- All-on-8 with Bone Grafting: For patients with insufficient jawbone density, bone grafting may be performed to strengthen the jawbone and ensure a stable foundation for the implants.
- Immediate Load All-on-8: Also known as "Teeth in a Day," this approach allows for the placement of temporary prosthetic teeth on the same day as the implants, providing immediate function and aesthetics.
Benefits:
- Full-arch restoration with the highest level of stability using eight implants
- Immediate improvement in function and appearance
- Permanent and stable solution for missing teeth
- Prevents bone loss and preserves jawbone structure
- Enhanced comfort and confidence compared to traditional dentures
- Minimally invasive with quicker recovery times
Risks:

- Discomfort or bite issues if prosthetics are not properly fitted
Our expert dental surgeons in Turkey use advanced techniques to minimize risks and ensure the best possible outcomes for our patients.
Recovery and Aftercare
- Initial Recovery: Most patients can return to normal activities within a few days, although complete healing and osseointegration (fusion of the implants to the bone) may take several months.
- Pain Management: Mild to moderate pain, swelling, and bruising are common after surgery and can be managed with prescribed medications and cold compresses.
- Oral Hygiene: Maintain excellent oral hygiene by brushing and flossing regularly, and avoid habits that can damage your implants, such as chewing on hard objects.
- Follow-Up Care: Attend regular dental check-ups to monitor the condition of your implants and ensure the health of your gums and jawbone. Your dentist will provide specific guidelines for care and maintenance.
