Can Full Mouth Implants Be Done in One Day?
From Dr. Eastwood at Summerbrook Dental & Implants – Fort Worth, TX
Many patients ask, “Can full mouth implants be done in one day?” The short answer is yes—in many cases, you can have your implants placed and leave the same day with a set of teeth. At Summerbrook Dental & Implants, Dr. Eastwood offers advanced treatment options, such as All-on-4 and All-on-X, that make same-day full mouth implants possible for the right patients.
In a one-day full mouth implant procedure, the damaged or remaining teeth are removed (if needed), the implants are placed, and a temporary set of teeth is attached to them. This means you don’t have to go without teeth during the healing process. Your final, permanent teeth are placed later, once the implants have fully healed and fused to the jawbone—a process called osseointegration.
Not every patient is a candidate for same-day implants. Factors like bone quality, gum health, bite alignment, and overall health must be considered. In some cases, bone grafting or other preparation may be needed before implants can be placed. Dr. Eastwood uses 3D imaging and careful planning to determine if this approach is right for you.
The biggest advantages of same-day full mouth implants are speed, convenience, and the ability to walk out with a functioning smile. However, the temporary teeth are not as strong as your final set, so you’ll need to follow eating and care instructions closely.
At Summerbrook Dental, we are a no-judgment office. Whether you’ve been without teeth for years or are replacing failing ones, our goal is to help you restore your smile with comfort and confidence.
