TACOMA, WA — A new chapter in full arch dental restoration has arrived in the Pacific Northwest. Smile Now Tacoma, led by Dr. Tyler Tolbert, is proud to announce that it is now offering the innovative 3 on 6™ dental implant solution—an advanced alternative to traditional dentures and All-on-X treatments.
The 3 on 6™ was originally developed by Dr. Randy Roberts as a modern alternative to traditional full arch treatments. Designed to maximize both function and aesthetics while preserving natural bone and tissue, the procedure has grown into a nationwide movement. Through Smile Systems, Dr. Roberts and his team now teach and certify dentists across the country, ensuring that patients can access this advanced treatment from highly trained providers.
The 3 on 6™ treatment uses six implants to support three individual zirconia bridges, delivering teeth that look, feel, and function like natural dentition. Unlike older methods, which often require removing healthy bone or using bulky prosthetics, this approach preserves the patient’s natural structure while enhancing long-term comfort, strength, and oral health.

“The 3 on 6 modality offers a conservative, functional, and aesthetically pleasing option for patients looking to preserve their natural bone and tissue,” explained Dr. Tolbert. “By segmenting the prostheses, you have enhanced cleansibility and strength relative to other similar full arch modalities. It is the closest thing to their God-given smile.”
Originally from Macon, Georgia, Dr. Tolbert graduated from the Dental College of Georgia, where he focused heavily on implant research and training. He went on to serve as a Clinical Director in a multi-regional full arch group, training over 40 doctors across the country in implantology. Today, he has settled in Washington with his wife and is the proud owner of Smile Now Tacoma, where he combines his passion for advanced implant dentistry with his dedication to patient-centered care.
For younger patients in particular, the 3 on 6™ offers unique advantages. “3 on 6 should be highly considered for young patients concerned about preserving their bone and wanting to ensure that they can have fixed, permanent teeth for the rest of their lives,” said Dr. Tolbert. “It is also an excellent option for those simply looking for the best full mouth replacement option that money can buy.”
By adding the 3 on 6™ to his practice, Dr. Tolbert is furthering his mission of providing patients with the most comprehensive and long-lasting restorative solutions available. “I am excited to offer this modality as a premium service that is the culmination of my many years practicing and training as a comprehensive implantologist,” he said. “3 on 6 is the supreme restorative option for many patients, and will provide long-lasting results for many years to come.”
With the arrival of the 3 on 6™ in Tacoma, patients in Washington now have access to a state-of-the-art solution that restores not only their smile, but also their confidence and quality of life.
