Teeth in a Day Dental Implants

Unlike traditional methods that require multiple appointments and long waiting periods, this procedure allows you to leave the dental office with secure, natural-looking teeth—all in one day. At Oral Surgery Specialists of Austin, our advanced approach to same day dental implants can restore your smile with confidence and comfort.



What Is "Teeth in a Day"?



Teeth in a Day is a revolutionary dental implant procedure that replaces an entire arch of teeth in just one visit. It uses 4 to 6 strategically placed implants to support a fixed prosthetic, giving patients a full set of secure, functional teeth on the same day as surgery.

Also known as same day dental implants or All-on-4 dental implants , this approach eliminates the need for removable dentures and allows patients to walk out of the office with a permanent-feeling solution. Unlike conventional implants, which can take months before a crown is placed, one day dental implants combine efficiency with long-term reliability.



Who Is a Candidate for Same Day Implants?



If you’ve experienced significant tooth loss, struggle with loose or uncomfortable dentures, or have failing teeth due to gum disease or decay, you may be an excellent candidate for permanent teeth in one day.

•  Extensive Tooth Loss - Suitable for patients missing most or all of their teeth.

•  Frustration with Dentures - Ideal for those tired of slipping, clicking, or messy adhesives.

•  Gum Disease or Failing Bridges - Common reasons patients seek out same-day solutions.

•  Good General Health - Non-smokers and patients in stable health typically heal best.

•  Bone Loss Not Always a Barrier - Modern techniques often eliminate the need for bone grafting.

During your consultation at Oral Surgery Specialists of Austin, our dental team will evaluate your oral health and discuss your suitability for this transformative procedure.



How the Teeth in a Day Procedure Works



The Teeth in a Day procedure is streamlined to deliver immediate results without compromising quality.

1.  Your journey begins with a comprehensive consultation, including 3D imaging and treatment planning.

2.  On surgery day, any remaining teeth are gently removed.

3.  4–6 dental implants are placed per arch to support a fixed prosthesis.

4.  A custom temporary set of teeth is secured to the implants—giving you a complete smile that day.

5.  After several months of healing, your permanent prosthesis is placed for lasting results.

Sedation or anesthesia ensures your comfort throughout the process. Most patients experience minimal downtime and can resume normal activities within a few days.



Benefits of Teeth in a Day vs Traditional Implants or Dentures



Compared to conventional tooth replacement options, same day dental implants offer multiple advantages that make them a preferred solution for many patients.

•  Immediate Results - Walk out with a complete smile the same day.

•  Improved Aesthetics - Natural-looking, custom-designed prosthetic teeth.

•  Faster Recovery - Fewer procedures and quicker healing compared to traditional implants.

•  No Removable Dentures - Fixed in place, no slipping or daily removal required.

•  Bone Preservation - Implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing deterioration.

•  Better Quality of Life - Enhanced ability to eat, speak, and smile confidently.

You’ll enjoy greater comfort, fewer appointments, and long-term oral health benefits that removable dentures simply can’t match.



How Long Does It Really Take?



Many people ask: how can you really get teeth in a day?

The answer lies in streamlined planning and innovative techniques. While the surgical procedure, including extractions and implant placement, is completed in one day, the full process takes a bit longer.

1.  Initial consultation and diagnostics.

2.  Surgical appointment where implants and temporary teeth are placed.

3.  Healing period of 3–6 months (known as osseointegration).

4.  Final prosthesis placement after the implants fully integrate with your jaw.

So yes—you’ll leave surgery day with teeth. But your final, permanent smile will come after the healing phase is complete.



What Do Teeth in a Day Look and Feel Like?



A common concern is whether same day teeth will look and feel real. The answer is yes.

Teeth in a Day prosthetics are custom-designed to match your facial structure, smile line, and bite. They’re crafted to look remarkably lifelike, with attention to detail in color, shape, and translucency.

•  No Slipping or Clicking - Fixed to your jaw with implants, not removable.

•  Immediate Functionality - Eat soft foods the same day and transition to a full diet after healing.

•  Natural Feel - Patients often say they feel more secure than their original teeth.

•  High Aesthetic Value - Most people won’t know they’re implants.

Patients commonly express surprise at how real—and how much better—their new smile looks compared to their original teeth.



Cost Considerations & Insurance



It’s true that Teeth in a Day is a financial investment. However, it’s also a long-term solution that can be more economical than piecemeal treatments or ongoing denture replacements.

•  Fewer Procedures, More Value - Combining extractions, implants, and prosthetics in one procedure reduces costs.

•  Long-Term Savings - Avoids the cycle of replacing bridges, crowns, or dentures.

•  Financing Options - Payment plans may be available.

•  Insurance Varies - Some plans offer partial coverage. Contact our team for assistance verifying benefits.

Think of it as an investment in your confidence, health, and daily quality of life.



What to Expect After the Procedure



After your Teeth in a Day procedure, a short recovery period is expected. Most patients feel well enough to resume light activity within a few days.

•  Mild Discomfort - Swelling and tenderness may occur but can be managed with prescribed or over-the-counter medications.

•  Soft Food Diet - Stick to soft foods for the first few weeks before transitioning to a full diet.

•  Hygiene Matters - You’ll receive instructions on how to clean around your implants.

•  Follow-Up Visits - Regular appointments ensure proper healing and monitor implant integration.

•  Longevity - With proper care, implants can last decades.

Our team will guide you through each phase of healing and provide all the tools you need for lasting success.



FAQs



How are Teeth in a Day different from traditional implants?


Teeth in a Day delivers a full arch of teeth supported by implants in a single visit, while traditional implants often require multiple surgeries and several months before placing permanent teeth.


Will I really walk out with teeth the same day?


Yes. You’ll receive a secure, natural-looking temporary set of teeth the same day your implants are placed. Final teeth are delivered after the healing process is complete.


How long do the implants last?


Dental implants are designed to last for decades with proper care. The prosthetic teeth may need replacement over time, but the implants themselves are permanent.


Is the procedure painful?


Most patients report only mild discomfort. Sedation and local anesthesia keep you comfortable during the procedure, and recovery is typically manageable with minimal downtime.


What if I’ve already been told I don’t have enough bone?


Modern techniques such as angled implant placement (used in All-on-4) often eliminate the need for bone grafting. Our team will assess your bone structure during your consultation.


How soon can I eat after the procedure?


You can usually eat soft foods the same day. Your diet will gradually return to normal as healing progresses and your final teeth are placed.
