Full Arch Implant Smiles in St. Louis, MO

All on X (also call All on 4 or 6)

All on 4 or All on 6 Implant Smiles are replacement teeth that are held in place by four or six titanium dental implant roots. The same day we place the implants you will leave with a beautiful custom smile that we designed for you that will be anchored in place with your new implants.

Sometimes, these same-day restorations are designed to be the patient’s final smile. However, in many cases, the same-day restorations serve as the patient’s temporary teeth while their bone and gum tissues fully heal around the implants. Complete healing usually takes about four months, at which point our team will craft the patient’s final implant smile to fit with their restored gum tissue. The final restoration is created in zirconia, a beautiful and extremely durable material that can last a lifetime. We’ve partnered with a top technician in the Midwest to craft this final step to ensure the most stunning and natural final product. So whether you’re bringing in an old picture and want us to give you back your youthful smile, or you want a brand new Hollywood Smile or any variation in between; our team can do it all.

Dr. Grayem’s All on X Transitional Smile Option

The benefits of the All on X option with a fixed beautiful smile at a lower upfront cost. We can discuss this option more and if you are a candidate at your consultation.

Snap-In Implant Smiles

These are implant-stabilized dentures. Our team can retrofit the patient’s existing denture, or we can create a new, life-like premium denture to the patient’s specifications. We’ll then secure the denture on top of strategically placed dental implants that extend into the patient’s jawbone tissue that your denture will SNAP into allowing you to eat and talk with a secure denture in place.

Because the connection between the denture and the implant roots is so strong, our dental team is able to remove the acrylic part of the upper denture that normally covers the patient’s palate. This dramatically improves the patient’s experience tasting, eating, drinking, and speaking.

We sometimes call this option a “Transitional Implant Smile” because the patient retains the option to eventually transition from the Snap-In Denture to an All on 4 or All on 6 Implant Smile.

We have other transitional options we can also discuss at your consult appointment.

Mini Dental Implants

Mini dental implants, or immediate-loading implants, are a type of replacement tooth root that are significantly smaller in diameter than traditional implant roots. Mini titanium implants don’t require as much jawbone density or post-treatment recovery time as conventional implants.
