At Immediate Smiles Cosmetic & Implant Dentistry, we offer advanced Fixed Full Arch dental implant solutions in League City, TX designed to restore comfort, confidence, and function. These solutions provide stable, permanent teeth that allow you to eat, speak, and smile without the pain or inconvenience often associated with traditional dentures.
Fixed Full Arch Solutions are implant-supported restorations that replace an entire upper arch, lower arch, or both with teeth that are securely fixed in place. Unlike removable dentures, these teeth do not shift, fall out, or require adhesives.
We offer three Fixed Full Arch options, each designed to meet different clinical needs, comfort preferences, and budgets. Your dentist will help determine which option is best for you.
The Most Natural-Looking and Natural-Feeling Option
Many patients assume dentures are the only solution for full tooth replacement—but that’s no longer the case. Permanent Teeth on 6 or 8 is a premium fixed implant solution that closely mimics natural teeth emerging from the gums.
This option involves placing:
8 implants in the upper arch
6 implants in the lower arch
These implants support:
Four 3-unit fixed bridges in the upper arch
Three 4-unit fixed bridges in the lower arch
The result is a smile that looks, feels, and functions like natural teeth.
Advantages of Permanent Teeth on 6 or 8:
Eat almost anything comfortably
Significant improvement in smile aesthetics
Extremely stable—does not shift or fall out
Natural speech without gagging or slurring
Promotes strong, healthy jawbone formation
Remains in place at all times
Feels like natural teeth
Can be brushed and flossed at home
Fixed Teeth, Often the Same Day
The All-on-X (also called Fixed Hybrid) solution is another highly effective option for patients with missing or failing teeth. This approach uses 4 to 6 strategically placed implants in the upper or lower jaw to support a fixed full-arch prosthesis.
In many cases, patients leave with a temporary set of fixed teeth the same day, allowing them to begin enjoying their new smile immediately.
Advantages of All-on-X:
Restores ability to eat effectively
Improves confidence and self-esteem
Enhances smile aesthetics and speech clarity
Highly stable with fewer implants
Restores up to 90% functionality after finalization
Faster results with same-day teeth
No denture adhesives required
A More Affordable, Implant-Supported Option
For patients seeking a more budget-friendly alternative with improved stability over traditional dentures, Snap-On (Implant Overdentures) may be an excellent choice.
This solution involves placing:
3 to 5 implants in the upper arch
2 to 4 implants in the lower arch
The denture securely “snaps” onto the implants using specialized attachments. While removable, it offers far greater stability than conventional dentures.
Advantages of Snap-On Implant Overdentures:
Improved ability to eat a wider range of foods
Increased confidence and comfort
Secure fit compared to traditional dentures
Easier cleaning with snap-on/snap-off design
More affordable than fully fixed options
As with all dental implant treatments, excellent oral hygiene and ongoing care are essential to long-term success. To help protect your investment and maintain implant health, we recommend:
Regular brushing and flossing at home
Professional cleanings every six months
Routine implant maintenance visits
These visits allow our team to thoroughly clean implant components and ensure your implants remain healthy and functional for years to come.
If you’re ready to move beyond failing teeth or unstable dentures, Fixed Full Arch Solutions may offer the permanent, confident smile you deserve.
