About All-on-6 in Rijeka, Croatia

Seen as a permanent alternative to dentures, this two-stage treatment uses six implants per jaw to support a whole row of replacement teeth.

This row (or arch), normally comprised of 14 porcelain or ceramic crowns, is cemented to the framework of a fixed bridge that’s custom-made for each patient.

Prices here in Croatia are significantly lower than in the UK, with our clients saving an average of between 50% and 70% (please see detailed cost comparisons below).

Am I A Suitable Candidate for an All-on-Six Treatment?

Although most candidates for full mouth restorations tend to be older, good general health— rather than age—is a key determinant for this treatment. Conditions or illnesses such as cancer, heart disease and diabetes, may disqualify a patient from this treatment, as well as heavy smoking (which reduces the body’s capacity to heal.

Even with bone loss you may be a suitable candidate for this particular method. This is because thinner, more durable implants are placed at approximately 45-degree angles, positioned in such a way as to create greater stability.

A local dentist should be able to provide a preliminary assessment as to whether you are a good candidate for this procedure if in doubt, or you (or the Dental Departures Customer Service team) can send x-rays to your chosen dentist in Rijeka.

How Long Will I Need to Stay in Rijeka, Croatia?

The two stages required to complete a full-arch restoration will normally involve two trips to Croatia, approximately six months apart:

• Stage 1:

• Presurgical appointment (planning, evaluations and impressions)

• Surgery (extractions, placement of the implants and immediate loading of a temporary denture) = approximately 3-5 days stay in Rijeka.

• Stage 2:

• Final restoration (attachment of the permanent fixed bridge after the implants have properly fused with the jawbone) = approx. 3-5 days stay.
