Restore Your Smile with All-on-X at Lake Forest Smiles
When missing teeth have affected your confidence, your comfort, or even your ability to enjoy a good meal, the All-on-X restoration may be the life-changing solution you’ve been waiting for. At Lake Forest Smiles, we specialize in creating beautiful, functional smiles through advanced restorative dentistry, including full-arch solutions like All-on-X.
We proudly restore dental implants placed by a trusted local oral surgery group right across the street. Working hand-in-hand, we ensure your treatment is seamless, comfortable, and beautifully customized to you.
What is the All-on-X Treatment?
All-on-X is a modern, efficient way to replace an entire upper or lower arch of missing teeth using a few as four to six implants (that’s where the “X” comes from). Instead of replacing each tooth individually, this approach strategically places implants at specific angles to support a full arch of prosthetic teeth.
The result? A complete smile that looks and feels natural, without the need for removable dentures or adhesives.
At Lake Forest Smiles, we restore these cases, meaning that once your implants are placed by our surgical partners, we design, mill, and deliver your custom All-on-X prosthesis right here in our office.
Why Patients Love All-on-X Restorations
All-on-X is one of the most efficient and transformative restorative treatments available today. Patients choose this solution because it offers:
- Immediate, Dramatic Results: regain your smile and function in a matter of hours or days, not months.
- Permanent Stability: Your new smile is securely anchored to implants, so there’s no slipping or discomfort like traditional dentures.
- Natural Aesthetics: Custom-made prosthetics match the look and feel of natural teeth.
- Preserved Bone Structure: Implants help maintain healthy bone density and facial contours.
- Simplified Care: Fewer implants mean fewer surgeries and faster recovery.
Your Partner in Seamless Care
At Lake Forest Smiles, your comfort and confidence come first. We work closely with our trusted oral surgeon partners right across the street, ensuring a coordinated experience from start to finish.
Once your implants are placed, our team handles every aspect of the restoration process. We use the CEREC same-day technology and Emax ceramics to create lifelike, durable results.
You’ll never feel like you’re being “sent around town” to different providers. We believe in communication, collaboration, and consistency, so every stage of your care feels effortless.
Advanced Technology for Exceptional Results
Our office uses CEREC CAD/CAM technology, which is a digital system that allows us to design, mill, and customize your restorations in-house. With this technology, we can provide:
- Restorations with a custom fit designed for comfort.
- Precision digital impressions (no messy trays!).
- Same-day restorations for crowns and temporary prosthetics.
- Durable, beautiful Emax materials for natural translucency and strength.
The All-on-X Restoration Process
1. Consultation & Evaluation

Once you’re ready to move forward, we coordinate your care with our oral surgery partners. They’ll place the dental implants precisely where they’ll provide the best support.
3. Restoration with Lake Forest Smiles
After your implants are placed, you’ll return to our office for your custom restoration. Using our CEREC mill, we design and fabricate your prosthesis for an exceptional fit and appearance.
2. Implant Placement by Our Surgical Partners
Your new smile will look natural, feel comfortable, and function beautifully. This allows you to speak, eat, and laugh with confidence again.
Life After All-on-X
Patients often say their All-on-X restoration gave them their lives back. You’ll be able to enjoy your favorite foods, smile freely, and maintain your teeth with easy brushing and flossing.
We’ll also schedule regular visits to ensure your implants and restoration remain in top condition for years to come.

Frequently Asked Questions About All-on-X
How long does the All-on-X process take?
The overall process depends on your individual case. Some patients can receive temporary restorations shortly after implant placement, while final restorations are typically completed once healing is finished. Since we use the CEREC same-day technology, the restorative phase is much faster and more comfortable than traditional methods.
Will my new teeth look natural?
Absolutely. At Lake Forest Smiles, we use Emax ceramic materials known for their strength and lifelike translucency. Each restoration is custom-designed to complement your features and mimic natural enamel. You will leave with a natural-looking smile.
What is the difference between All-on-X and traditional dentures?
Traditional dentures rest on the gums and can slip or shift. All-on-X restorations are securely anchored to dental implants, providing unmatched stability and comfort. You can eat, speak, and smile with complete confidence.
Do I need to see an oral surgeon first?
No need to worry about scheduling around town; we help coordinate your entire treatment. Our trusted oral surgery group across the street places your implants, and then you’ll return to us for your restoration. It’s one streamlined process.
