Teeth to Stay – All in 1 Day!©: Am I a candidate?

In the past, people who were missing all of their teeth were resigned to struggling with uncomfortable dentures that often slipped out of place. Now, the Teeth to Stay—All in 1 Day!© technique offers dental implant patients in Vancouver an option to replace their missing teeth with permanent arch of artificial teeth that is anchored to the underlying bone with four titanium dental implants.

With the assistance of specialized computer software, the implant dentist is able to plan all of the surgery’s details, such as the location of the implant placement and the design of the artificial dental arch, in advance of the procedure. The minimally invasive implant surgery then can be completed in a single office visit, and the recovery time is drastically reduced in comparison to traditional implant placement.

Sometimes denture wearers are told they don’t qualify for implants or that they will need a bone graft because of significant bone loss. The Teeth to Stay—All in 1 Day! involves just four dental implants, which can be angled underneath the gum to fit into the available bone.

The implants typically are placed toward the front of the jaw where bone remains intact, so most patients do not need to undergo the bone graft procedure in advance of the implant placement. Except in cases of extremely advanced bone loss, nearly all denture wearers are candidates for Teeth to Stay—All in 1 Day!. However, some medical conditions may prevent a patient from being an immediate candidate for the procedure. It is best to check with your implant dentist to see if you qualify for Teeth to Stay—All in 1 Day!
