All-on-6 Dental Implants in Lima, Peru | Fixed Teeth

If you have lost most or all of your teeth, All-on-6 dental implants may offer a fixed solution for restoring an entire upper or lower arch.

This treatment uses six dental implants to support a customized full-arch prosthesis, helping restore chewing function, appearance, and everyday comfort.

At SurgeryInPeru.com, we help patients arrange specialist evaluations in Lima, Peru, where 3D imaging and digital planning are used to assess suitable full-mouth rehabilitation options.

Not everyone needs six implants. The appropriate number and position depend on bone availability, bite forces, oral health, and the proposed restoration.

First things first: We’ll take a 3D scan of the entire mouth. Integrated software allows us to check bone density and plan the position of each dental implant. 


What is the all on 6 dental implants procedure?

A dental implant is a titanium screw that is totally bio-compatible with the body. It replaces the root of a missing tooth. This treatment normally includes placing six dental implants in one arch, which is where we get the term ‘full mouth dental implants’ from.

These implants support a full bridge of teeth or a custom made, fixed hybrid denture.

This is great because it means that you can bite apples, chew steak, and smile as you used to. It also means living a completely normal life again with fixed, permanent teeth.

How much time does it take?

To proceed with the all on 6 dental implants treatment, your first trip to Lima should be for seven to ten days. Once the diagnosis is complete, you can begin treatment on the same day.

This involves the surgical stage and placing the six dental implants. They are placed while you are sedated which keeps you comfortable and sleepy during the treatment.

You can expect this to take around 2 – 3 hours in total.

Healing, called osseointegration, normally takes 3 or 4 months. This means that the bone integrates with the implants and makes them strong enough to withstand biting pressures.

Later, and on your second trip to Lima, the implants are restored and teeth placed. This needs to be for a minimum period of two weeks to allow for the fabrication of your new teeth.

All on 4 dental implants is another excellent option in case the bone isn’t optimal for six implants.


Possible Costs for all on 6 dental implants

Full mouth dental implants treatment is much more accessible in Lima than in North America or Canada. You can expect to pay around half the cost of what you would pay at a quality dental clinic at home.

All-on-4 vs. All-on-6: What’s the Difference?

Both treatments use dental implants to support a fixed full-arch restoration.

All-on-4 typically uses four implants per arch, while All-on-6 uses six. Additional implants may provide more support in suitable cases, but six implants are not automatically necessary or preferable for every patient.

The specialist will evaluate bone anatomy, bite, implant distribution, and the planned prosthesis before recommending an approach.


Will I Receive Fixed Teeth Immediately?

Some patients may be suitable for a fixed temporary restoration soon after implant placement, depending on implant stability and other clinical factors.

Others may need a different temporary solution during healing.

The definitive prosthesis is generally planned after the dental implants have integrated sufficiently with the bone.


What Does All-on-6 Treatment Include?

A treatment plan may involve:

  • Clinical examination and 3D imaging
  • Extractions or bone grafting, if required
  • Placement of six dental implants
  • A temporary restoration, when appropriate
  • Healing and follow-up appointments
  • Design and placement of the final full-arch prosthesis

❓FAQs about Dental Implants in Lima

FAQs

❓ What are All-on-6 dental implants?
All-on-6 is a full-arch restoration supported by 6 dental implants. These implants hold a fixed bridge that replaces all teeth in the upper jaw, lower jaw, or both.

❓ Who is a good candidate for All-on-6 implants?
People with many missing teeth, teeth with a poor prognosis, or those wearing removable dentures who want fixed teeth may be good candidates. This is confirmed with a clinical exam and a 3D CT scan.

❓ Is All-on-6 better than All-on-4?

Not necessarily. Both are established approaches to full-arch rehabilitation. The choice depends on the patient’s bone structure, bite, treatment goals, and the specialist’s assessment.

❓ Can All-on-6 implants be used for both upper and lower teeth?

Yes, full-arch implant-supported restorations can be planned for either arch or both, provided the patient is a suitable candidate. A full mouth rehabilitation may include a number of other treatments too.

❓ How long does All-on-6 treatment take?

The surgical stage and final restoration are often separated by a healing period of three to six months. Timing depends on implant stability, bone healing, and whether additional procedures are needed.

❓ All-on-6 vs All-on-4: what’s the difference?
All-on-6 uses two more implants than All-on-4. In some cases, this can improve support and load distribution. The best option depends on bone volume, bite, and the specialist’s treatment plan.

❓ Is bone grafting always needed for All-on-6?
Not always. Many patients do not need grafting because implants can be planned in favorable areas. However, if bone is insufficient in key zones, grafting or additional techniques may be recommended.

❓ Can you get teeth the same day with All-on-6?
Often, yes. Depending on the case, a fixed temporary prosthesis may be placed the same day or within a few days. The final prosthesis is placed after healing.

❓ How long is recovery after All-on-6 implants?
In the first few days, swelling and discomfort are common. Implant integration and healing usually take a few months before the final prosthesis is placed, depending on the case and whether extractions were done.

❓ How long does the full All-on-6 treatment take?
It varies. Some patients complete surgery in one phase and wear a temporary prosthesis during healing. The final prosthesis is usually placed after several months, once stability is confirmed.

❓ Does the All-on-6 procedure hurt?
It is done with anesthesia. Most patients describe pressure and post-op soreness rather than severe pain. With medication and proper care, it is usually manageable.

❓ What materials are used for the final All-on-6 prosthesis?
Common options include zirconia and hybrid structures (titanium with resin/acrylic). The best choice depends on your bite, available space, aesthetic goals, and maintenance needs.

❓ How do you clean All-on-6 implants?
Daily hygiene is essential. Typically recommended tools include a soft toothbrush, a water flosser, and interdental brushes or special floss to clean under the bridge. Professional cleanings and checkups are also important.

❓ How long do All-on-6 implants last?
With good hygiene, regular follow-ups, and a well-adjusted bite, implants can last many years and often decades. The prosthesis may need maintenance or replacement over time due to wear.

❓ What are the risks or complications of All-on-6?
Possible risks include infection, implant failure, temporary changes in sensation, bite issues, or prosthesis chipping/fracture. Careful 3D planning and ongoing controls help reduce these risks.
