Can I Receive Teeth In A Day?

If you’ve lost most or all of your teeth, then you need new ones in order to eat and speak without difficulty. While dental implants or implant-supported dentures are a preferred option, many people worry about the time between implant placement and prosthetic completion, in which the jaw needs to heal. However, for some we can offer an alternative: teeth in a day. Can you receive teeth in a day?

Frequently Asked Questions About Teeth in a Day

Question: How are they placed?

Answer: Much like traditional dental implants, a series of posts made from biocompatible titanium are placed into the jawbone. A prosthetic is then created and attached to the posts.

Question: Can anyone receive them?

Answer: Not everyone is a viable candidate for this procedure. We will need to examine your smile, assessing the state of your teeth and the strength of your jawbone. We can then decide if teeth in a day is possible for your smile. If not, we can still discuss offer implant options to help restore your lost teeth.

Question: How long will my new smile last?

Answer: Dental implants actually bond with your jawbone, much like a natural tooth root. As a result, your teeth have the possibility of lasting a lifetime. However, you will need to take steps to improve your oral health in order to ensure your new teeth last for many years to come. We will discuss ways you can improve your oral health and care for your smile from home.

Question: How do they differ from traditional implants?

Answer: Traditionally, an implant-supported denture is held in place with between six and eight posts. With teeth in a day, we typically only place four. In addition, traditional implants require a waiting period of weeks to months for the area to heal before placing a restoration or prosthetic. However, we can now place the prosthetic in the same visit for qualifying patients, offering a complete smile in a single day.
