Full-Arch Restoration

A fixed, implant-supported smile — the permanent alternative to dentures.

Full-arch restoration in West Columbia, SC replaces an entire arch of failing or missing teeth with a fixed, implant-supported set that looks and works like your own. It's the permanent alternative to dentures: no slipping, no adhesive, full chewing power. At Todays Dental we handle the whole journey — 3D imaging, extractions, implants, and your final teeth — in one familiar office, with financing that turns a five-figure treatment into a predictable monthly payment.

What Full-Arch (All-on-X) Restoration Is

A full-arch restoration — often called All-on-4 or All-on-X — anchors a complete set of fixed replacement teeth on a small number of dental implants. Unlike a removable denture, it stays in your mouth permanently: you brush it, chew with it, and smile with it like natural teeth.

Who It Helps

  • Long-time denture wearers tired of slipping, adhesives, and covered palates.
  • Patients with many failing teeth facing a mouthful of individual repairs.
  • Anyone with significant bone loss — grafting and implant placement are planned together with 3D imaging.
  • People who want chewing power back: fixed arches restore near-natural bite force.

The Process, Visit by Visit

  • 1. Consult & 3D scan: imaging shows exactly what your bone supports, and you get a written plan and price.
  • 2. Surgery day: implants are placed and a provisional fixed set goes in the same day — you are never without teeth.
  • 3. Healing: implants integrate with the bone over a few months while you wear the provisional arch.
  • 4. Final teeth: your permanent, custom-shaded arch is fitted and adjusted for bite and appearance.

Full-Arch vs Dentures

Traditional dentures and partials remain the budget option, and we make excellent ones. But a fixed arch wins on chewing power, comfort, speech, and bone preservation — implants stimulate the jaw the way roots do, so the bone doesn't shrink the way it does under a denture.

We offer both, so the recommendation you get is honest: if a denture serves you better, that's what we'll say. Independent information on implant-supported teeth is available at the ADA's MouthHealthy implant guide.

Financing options for full arch restoration

Cost and Monthly Financing

Full-arch restoration is a five-figure investment that varies with the implants needed and the materials you choose. Your consult produces one exact written quote — no surprise add-ons mid-treatment.

Monthly payments through Cherry financing, Sunbit, and CareCredit turn that number into something most patients compare to a car payment, and our team handles the application with you in the office.

What does full-arch restoration cost?

It's a five-figure investment that varies with implants needed and materials. Your consult produces an exact quote, and Cherry/Sunbit financing turns it into a monthly payment most patients compare to a car note.

Am I a candidate if I've worn dentures for years?

Often yes. Bone loss changes the plan, not necessarily the answer — 3D imaging tells us, and grafting can rebuild support where needed.

How long does the process take?

Most patients go from consult to final fixed teeth in a few months, and you're never without teeth — a provisional set is placed the day of surgery.

Is it better than dentures?

For chewing power, comfort, and bone preservation, yes. Dentures remain the budget option, and we offer both — so the recommendation you get is honest.

Does Medicaid or Medicare cover full-arch restoration?

Generally no — full-arch treatment is rarely covered by SC Medicaid or standard Medicare, though some Medicare Advantage plans contribute. We verify your benefits and give you the real numbers before you commit.
