Teeth in a Day™
Discover Same-Day Dental Solutions With Dental Implants
It’s natural for your teeth to age as you do. As other parts of you get weaker, your teeth may begin to decay and breakdown, requiring they be removed or if left untreated, they may even break apart in your mouth, leaving ugly gaps that can ruin your smiles and cause your jaw to change shape.
Dental implants can be used to fill these spaces with natural looking teeth that require no additional care beyond standard oral hygiene practices, and function like real teeth. However, when missing many teeth on your jaw, replacing each tooth individually can be costly and complex, with multiple surgeries and a lengthy treatment time. While many turn to removable dentures to replace all the teeth in their jaw, a fixed dental prosthesis, seated on dental implants can be a much more reasonable option, and even has the advantage of being a procedure that can be completed in a single day. These “Teeth in a Day” options can get you into the dental chair with your broken and missing teeth, and out with a full jaw of new, attractive teeth.
Teeth in a Day™ are permanently attached to your mouth, so you can avoid the inconvenience and dietary limitations of normal removable dentures. This implant dramatically improves quality of life for patients by allowing for proper speaking and chewing, increasing self-confidence and comfort, and reducing the resorption of bone. They are designed to look, feel and act like healthy set of teeth, and can be used to replace either the entire upper or lower set of teeth, or both if necessary.
What to Know About Teeth in a Day™
Teeth in a Day™ replaces a full arch of missing or failing teeth using dental implants, often with a temporary set of teeth placed the same day as surgery. Here are the basics at a glance:
- Replaces an entire upper or lower arch of teeth, not just one tooth at a time.
- Fixed to dental implants, so there is nothing to take out at night like a removable denture.
- Temporary teeth are usually fitted within about 24 hours of implant placement.
- Because implants replace the tooth root, they help reduce the jawbone loss that often follows tooth loss.
- Supports proper chewing and clear speech, which can improve comfort and confidence.
- Cared for with normal brushing and flossing once your dentist clears you to do so.

Are Teeth in a Day™ the Right Choice For Me?
Patients with severe tooth decay or loss in most or all of the teeth in a jaw, have removable dentures that are loose or uncomfortable, or those who would require a bone graft to be eligible for individual dental implants may be good candidates for Teeth in a Day™. Speak to Dr. Ceyhan about your options today.
Should I Try to Save My Real Teeth?
Speak to your cosmetic dentist in Peoria, AZ about whether your teeth are salvageable and what other treatment options may be available to you. If your teeth cannot be saved, a North Phoenix Teeth in a Day™ prosthodontic procedure may be less costly than trying to keep badly damaged teeth.
After my Teeth are Extracted, Do I Have to Wait to Get My New Teeth?
Teeth in a Day™ procedures are designed to allow you to keep your natural teeth until your new set is ready. You’ll have one or two visits with your cosmetic dentist to gather impressions, x-rays, and other information to create your treatment plan, then you will return for a visit that will extract any remaining teeth, place the dental implants, and within 24 hours, your new temporary teeth are fitted and adjusted. After the gums have fully healed and the implants have fused to your jaw bone, usually about 6 months, new impressions will be taken and your final, permanent set of teeth is adjusted to your mouth to ensure the best support, appearance, function, and longevity of the prosthetic.
FAQs About Teeth in a Day™ in Glendale, AZ
What Does Teeth in a Day Actually Mean?
Teeth in a Day refers to placing dental implants and fitting a full set of temporary teeth in a single visit, usually within about 24 hours. This is often called an immediate-load approach because the temporary teeth go on the same day rather than waiting months first. The temporary set lets you leave with a full arch of teeth while the implants heal. After the gums heal and the implants fuse to the jawbone, your final, permanent set is made and fitted.
Am I a Good Candidate for Teeth in a Day?
Patients with severe tooth decay or loss across most or all of a jaw, loose or uncomfortable dentures, or those who would need a bone graft to qualify for individual implants may be good candidates. In general, implant candidacy depends on having adequate jawbone density and healthy gums, and factors like smoking, uncontrolled diabetes, and certain medications can affect healing. The best way to know is an exam with Dr. Ceyhan, who can review your health history and imaging.
How Long Until My Permanent Teeth Are Ready?
You wear the temporary set while the implants fuse to the bone, a process called osseointegration. This healing commonly takes about 3 to 4 months in the lower jaw and around 6 to 8 months in the upper jaw before the permanent teeth are placed. Once the gums have healed and the implants are stable, new impressions are taken and your final teeth are adjusted for fit, function, and appearance. Your dentist will give you a timeline based on your own case.
What Affects the Cost of Teeth in a Day?
Cost depends on factors like the number of implants, whether extractions are needed, the type of prosthesis, and any preparatory treatment. Full-arch cases are planned individually, so an accurate estimate comes from an in-person consultation rather than a set price. Insurance coverage varies by plan, and our team is glad to review your options with you. Ask Dr. Ceyhan about a plan that fits your needs.
How Do I Care for Teeth in a Day, and How Long Do They Last?
Everyday care is similar to natural teeth: normal brushing and flossing once your dentist clears you, plus regular checkups. In the days after surgery a soft-food diet is typical, and it helps to avoid smoking while you heal. Long-term success depends heavily on ongoing oral hygiene and routine dental visits. Research shows dental implants have a very high long-term survival rate, though results vary by patient health, bone quality, and the implant site, so treat that as general guidance and not a guarantee.
What Our Patients Say
“I’m not one to write many reviews, but my recent experience calls for one. I had been searching for a dentist to get an array of work done and came across Aesthetic Dentistry. Every review I read was positive and spoke to the expertise and professionalism that Dr. Ceyhan and his staff show their patients. Their website was also a great resource of information. I decided to make the call and scheduled an appointment and I’m so glad that I did. Dr. Ceyhan is amazing! He listened to my questions and provided detailed responses that allowed me to make an informed decision on my treatment plan. From the first visit it was clear that Dr. Ceyhan’s expertise was extensive and that he truly cared for his patients.

After several visits with Dr. Ceyhan and his team, I now have completed my treatment plan which included deep cleaning, crown replacement, filling replacement, and an implant for a missing tooth.
