Can You Really Get New Teeth in One Day?

If you’re missing all or most of your teeth, the idea of walking into a clinic and leaving the same day with a brand-new smile sounds like a dream — but at Vitality, it's a reality for many of our patients.


Thanks to our advanced technology and expert surgical planning, we offer a Same-Day Full-Mouth Implant solution that allows qualified patients to receive implants and a full set of fixed teeth in just one visit.


Here’s what you can expect from the “Teeth in a Day” process — and what makes it different at Vitality.


What Are Same-Day Full-Mouth Dental Implants?

“Same-day” or “teeth-in-a-day” refers to a specialized implant treatment where:

  • Your implants are placed surgically.

  • And temporary teeth are attached on the same day.

This approach eliminates the need for multiple surgeries or extended waiting periods without teeth.


However, not everyone qualifies for same-day implants. At Vitality, we carefully evaluate each patient using 3D imaging, digital planning, and comprehensive medical screening to determine candidacy.


What Happens on Surgery Day?

Your journey begins well before the day of surgery — with virtual planning and CT-guided mapping of your jawbone, nerve pathways, and ideal implant positions.

On the day of the procedure:


Vitality’s same-day surgery steps: planning, sedation, implant placement, and new teeth.
Surgery Day Process

  • You’ll receive “twilight” sedation — a safe, calming method that allows you to stay relaxed and pain-free.

  • Our oral & maxillofacial surgeon will place your implants based on the precise virtual plan.

  • Your custom temporary teeth will be attached immediately after surgery — giving you a full set of functional, aesthetic teeth before you leave.

  • Most patients have no memory of the surgery, and recover comfortably at home within hours.


Surgery takes approximately 3–4 hours per jaw, with 30–60 minutes of recovery time before discharge.


Benefits of Same-Day Dental Implants


  • Immediate function – Eat soft foods and speak with confidence right away

  • No time without teeth – You never go home toothless

  • Faster emotional recovery – Restore self-esteem and appearance instantly

  • Efficient use of time – Especially valuable for out-of-town patients


What Happens After Surgery?

It’s important to understand that your same-day teeth are temporary.

  • They are made from high-performance acrylic and are designed to be worn during healing (typically 3–6 months)

  • After your bone and gums have fully healed, you’ll return for your final zirconia or porcelain bridge

  • This second phase uses digital impressions and advanced CAD/CAM technology to deliver your permanent, lifelike teeth


Proper oral hygiene, a soft diet, and follow-up visits are essential during the healing period.


Why Choose Vitality for Same-Day Implants?

At Vitality, we combine:

  • A nationally recognized oral surgeon

  • An expert implant prosthodontist

  • An in-house lab with digital CAD/CAM technology

  • Pre-surgical virtual planning and CT mapping

  • A supportive team trained in longevity medicine and whole-patient care


Only qualified patients are approved for same-day treatment — and we’re transparent about expectations, outcomes, and timelines.
