Upper All-on-6
Six implants were placed in the upper jaw after the bone assessment to support the planned upper full-arch restoration.
01. Initial Condition
Eight Years with a Removable Denture
The patient travelled from Germany after using a removable denture for approximately eight years. His main goals were to move away from a removable solution, improve eating comfort and support a better quality of life with fixed teeth.
The pre-treatment panoramic radiograph documents complete tooth loss in the upper and lower jaws. Before treatment began, a detailed bone assessment was completed to evaluate implant positions, anatomical limitations and the planned full-arch restorations.
02. Treatment Goal
Replacing a Long-Term Removable Denture with Fixed Teeth
- Move from a Removable Denture to Fixed Teeth
- Improve Comfort While Eating
- Create Implant Support in Both Jaws
- Provide Fixed Temporary Teeth During Healing
- Coordinate the Upper and Lower Bite
- Complete the Case with Titanium Bar-Supported Zirconia Bridges
03. Treatment Strategy
Detailed Bone Assessment Followed by Upper and Lower All-on-6
After detailed assessment of the available bone, six implants were placed in the upper jaw and six implants in the lower jaw. The implant distribution was selected to support the planned full-arch restorations and to coordinate both jaws within one treatment concept.
Lower All-on-6
Six implants were placed in the lower jaw, bringing the total number of implants in the first stage to twelve.
Fixed Temporary Teeth
Within a few days of implant placement, fixed temporary teeth were fitted so the patient could complete the healing phase with a fixed and presentable solution.
04. Radiographic Timeline
From the Initial Assessment to the Completed Fixed Restorations
The panoramic images document the complete tooth-loss condition, placement of six implants in each jaw and the completed full-arch restorations. The fixed temporary teeth used during healing are described in the treatment record but are not shown as a separate panoramic stage here.
05. Documented Treatment
Two Treatment Stages with Fixed Temporary Teeth
During the first visit, a total of twelve implants were placed across the upper and lower jaws. Fixed temporary teeth were fitted within a few days, allowing the patient to complete the healing period with a fixed solution. Approximately three months later, he returned to Klinik7 for digital impressions, trial stages and completion of the final restorations.
- Detailed Bone Assessment
- Six Upper-Jaw Implants
- Six Lower-Jaw Implants
- Fixed Temporary Teeth Within a Few Days
- Second Visit After Approximately Three Months
- Titanium Bar-Supported Zirconia Bridges
06. Visible Result
Titanium Bar-Supported Zirconia Bridges
At the second treatment stage, digital impressions were taken and the trial stages were completed. The patient participated in selecting the colour and form of the teeth. The treatment was then completed with titanium bar-supported zirconia bridges in the upper and lower jaws.
- Fixed Upper and Lower Full-Arch Bridges
- Titanium Bar Support
- Zirconia Final Restorations
- Colour and Form Selected with the Patient
- Completed After Digital Impressions and Trial Stages
07. Treatment at Klinik7
Coordinating Implant Surgery, Temporary Teeth and Final Bridges
This case required coordination between bone assessment, placement of twelve implants, fixed temporary teeth, a healing period, digital impressions, trial appointments and the final titanium bar-supported zirconia bridges.
08. Treating Dentist
For this patient, the first-stage implant surgery, fixed temporary teeth and final titanium bar-supported zirconia bridges were coordinated as one two-stage full-mouth rehabilitation.
Dt. Barbaros Baran planned and carried out this documented upper and lower All-on-6 case at Klinik7. The treatment included detailed assessment, placement of twelve implants, fixed temporary teeth during healing and completion with titanium bar-supported zirconia bridges after the second-stage digital and clinical trial process.

10. Suitability
Could a Similar Two-Stage All-on-6 Treatment Be Suitable for You?
A similar plan may be considered for a patient who has complete or near-complete tooth loss and wants to replace a removable denture with fixed full-arch restorations.
The implant number, possibility of fixed temporary teeth, healing period and final bridge material must be decided after individual bone, medical, bite and prosthetic assessment.
11. Frequently Asked Questions
Questions About This Full-Mouth All-on-6 Case
Why Did the Patient Seek All-on-6 Treatment?
The patient had used a removable denture for approximately eight years and wanted fixed teeth to improve eating comfort and quality of life.
What Assessment Was Completed Before Treatment?
A detailed bone assessment was completed before implant placement to evaluate the available bone, anatomy and planned implant positions.
How Many Implants Were Placed?
Six implants were placed in the upper jaw and six implants in the lower jaw, for a total of twelve implants.
Were Fixed Temporary Teeth Provided?
Yes. Fixed temporary teeth were fitted within a few days of implant placement so the patient could complete the healing phase with a fixed solution.
When Did the Patient Return for the Second Stage?
The patient returned to Klinik7 approximately three months later for the second treatment stage.
What Happened During the Second Stage?
Digital impressions were taken, trial stages were completed and the colour and form of the teeth were selected together with the patient.
What Material Was Used for the Final Bridges?
The definitive upper and lower full-arch restorations were titanium bar-supported zirconia bridges.
Does This Case Guarantee the Same Result for Another Patient?
No. Implant suitability, temporary loading, healing time, bridge design and final outcomes differ according to the patient's anatomy, health and individual treatment plan.
Personal Assessment
Would You Like to Know Whether Fixed Full-Arch Teeth May Be Suitable for You?
Send current dental photographs and available panoramic or CBCT records for an initial review by the Klinik7 team. The definitive implant number, temporary-teeth plan, healing period and final restoration design are confirmed after clinical and radiographic assessment.
