All-on-X dental implants give patients with significant tooth loss a permanent, fixed set of teeth in a single procedure. Rather than replacing each tooth individually, the All-on-X technique anchors a full arch of prosthetic teeth onto just four to six strategically placed implants per jaw. The result is a stable, natural-looking smile that lets you eat, speak, and laugh with complete confidence.
If you have been living with loose dentures, failing teeth, or widespread decay, All-on-X may be the most efficient path to a full restoration. At Lotus Dental Associates in Fort Mill, Dr. Phan uses advanced 3D imaging and guided surgical planning to deliver predictable, long-lasting results for full-arch implant patients.
Unlike bridges and dentures that need replacement, dental implants can last a lifetime with proper care. This permanence makes them the most cost-effective long-term solution.
Implants prevent bone loss that occurs with missing teeth. By maintaining your jawbone, they preserve your facial structure and prevent premature aging.
Eat, speak, and smile with complete confidence. Implants restore full chewing power and won't slip or click like dentures, providing comfort and stability.
Your All-on-X journey starts with a detailed consultation where Dr. Phan evaluates your oral health, bone density, and treatment goals. Using our CBCT 3D scanner, we capture a complete picture of your jaw structure to determine the ideal implant placement for maximum stability.
On the day of surgery, four to six titanium implants are placed at precise angles in areas of the jaw with the strongest bone. This angled placement often eliminates the need for bone grafting, even in patients who have experienced bone loss. A temporary set of fixed teeth is attached to the implants that same day, so you leave our office with a full, functional smile.
Over the next several months, the implants fuse with your jawbone through a process called osseointegration. Once healing is complete, your permanent prosthetic arch is fabricated and secured. The final restoration is custom-designed to match your facial features and desired aesthetic, giving you teeth that look and feel completely natural.
