Missing teeth can harm oral health and quality of life. Whether due to injury, decay, or age, missing teeth can make eating, speaking, and jaw alignment difficult. Over time, they can also lead to bone loss, changing facial structure and appearance, and affecting self-confidence.

For those dealing with tooth loss, finding timely solutions is essential to avoid the discomfort and inconvenience of being without teeth that can occur with full mouth reconstruction. “Same-day” or “next day” treatments are especially valuable, allowing individuals to quickly regain the ability to eat, speak, and smile without disruption.

What are Teeth In a Day?

The Teeth in a Day procedure (also known as implant-supported dentures, or All-on-4®, All on X, and Full Arch treatment) offers an excellent solution by providing a full set of secure, natural-looking teeth sometimes in one day. Using advanced dental implants, it supports a fixed prosthesis, restoring the function and look of a complete smile. This efficient approach reduces downtime, minimizes dental visits, and helps prevent bone loss, giving patients an easy, effective way to regain their smile and improve well-being.

How the Procedure Works

The Teeth in a Day procedure starts with a comprehensive evaluation to determine if you’re a good candidate for treatment. On the day of the procedure, dental implants are carefully placed into your jawbone, and a custom-designed temporary prosthetic is attached to the implants. This provides you with immediate functionality and aesthetics while the implants integrate with your bone over time, creating a strong foundation for implant-supported dentures.

The Benefits of Teeth in a Day

Below are key benefits of selecting the Teeth in a Day procedure:

  • No plate covering the roof of the mouth, allowing natural speaking and tasting.
  • Fixed in place with implants, eliminating rocking, movement, and gum irritation.
  • Provides a more natural and comfortable feel compared to conventional dentures.
  • Easy to care for and highly durable.
  • Simulates the look, feel, and function of natural teeth, boosting confidence in speaking, eating, laughing, and smiling.
  • Can often be completed in a single visit and a custom-designed temporary prosthesis can be provided the same day as implant surgery or within 48 hours depending on the technique and prosthesis material chosen.

Are You a Good Candidate?

You may be a good candidate for implant-supported dentures if you have sufficient jawbone density to support dental implants and are in overall good health. Non-smokers, or those willing to stop smoking during the healing process, tend to have better outcomes since smoking can interfere with healing and implant integration. Additionally, having healthy gums and maintaining proper oral hygiene are essential for the long-term success of your implants.

Frequently Asked Questions About Full Mouth Dental Implants

Why should I replace missing teeth?

There are many benefits to replacing missing teeth. It prevents bone loss in the jaw, restores function, and improves your smile. Missing teeth can cause your remaining teeth to shift out of place and impair your bite. Bone loss can also occur in the jaw due to missing teeth and can cause neighboring teeth to become loose and untreatable.

Can I get a full set of replacement teeth in a day?

Teeth in a day is a dental procedure that involves the replacement of all of the teeth in as little as one day. This procedure is also called the All-on-4® treatment concept because it requires the placement of at least 4 dental implants in the jaw with a full denture attached. (All-on-4® is a trademark of Nobel Biocare Services AG.) Depending on your specific jaw size and needs, 6, 7, or 8 implants may be required for optimal long term results.

What is full mouth rehabilitation?

Full mouth rehabilitation is the process of replacing all of the teeth at once. When all or the majority of the teeth are missing or need to be extracted, there are solutions for replacement that can restore your smile as well as your chew and speak properly.

What is the difference between traditional dentures and implant-supported dentures?

Traditional dentures use suction and adhesives to attach to the gums. They often slip out of place when you’re eating and talking and may pinch or chafe your gums. Implant-supported dentures attach to dental implants placed in the jaw. They secure the prosthesis in place for greater comfort and stability.

What are the benefits of implant-supported dentures?

● They stay securely in place when you are eating and talking.
● The dental implants that hold them in place prevent bone loss in the jaw.
● They are more comfortable.
● They give you a more natural smile.
● They last longer than traditional dentures.

Is full mouth rehabilitation a cosmetic procedure?

Tooth replacement teeth is not just cosmetic; it serves an oral health purpose as well. Full mouth rehabilitation involves much more than just improving your smile. It can be a life- changing experience that allows you to enjoy the foods you love and the essential nutrients to thrive and achieve better overall health and wellness.

What type of anesthesia will I need for full mouth rehabilitation?

At the very least you will need local anesthesia for the placement of the dental implants. Some patients prefer sedation to help them relax and to help the time pass more comfortably. We can discuss options with you to help you decide what will make the procedure as comfortable as possible for you.

How long will full mouth rehabilitation take?

If you go with full arch rehabilitation it can take a few hours for each arch of teeth. In the case of traditional implant-supported dentures it can take a few hours for each step in the process over a few months.
