Hybrid All-on-4 procedures in Turkey typically require two visits over 3–6 months. The first trip lasts 5–9 days for implant placement and temporary teeth. Patients return after 3–6 months for a second week-long visit to fit the final, permanent hybrid bridge.
- First visit: Lasts 5–9 days for consultations, computer-guided surgery, and fitting temporary teeth.
- Healing period: Requires 3–6 months at home for implants to fuse with the bone.
- Second visit: Usually takes 7 days for precision fitting of the permanent hybrid prosthesis.
- Buffer days: Booking extra time is recommended for post-operative checks and scans.
Bookimed Expert Insight: Clinics with on-site laboratories, like YEG Clinic or Catwalk Nisantasi, can sometimes reduce prosthetic turnaround times. However, the 3-month biological healing gap is non-negotiable for implant stability. Many top Turkish surgeons, including those trained at Australia's RMIT University, insist on this staged approach for long-term success.
Patient Consensus: Planning at least one week for the first stage is vital. Patients found that temporary dentures allowed them to eat comfortably while waiting months for the final permanent bridge to be completed in Turkey.
