Teeth-in-a-Day (All-on-4 Dental Implants) in Houston, TX
What Is Teeth-in-a-Day?
Teeth-in-a-Day is an advanced full-mouth restoration technique that allows patients to receive a complete set of new teeth in a single day. Using a proven method such as All-on-4 dental implants, this treatment provides a permanent, fixed solution for patients with extensive tooth loss or failing dentition. Unlike traditional implant methods that require months of healing before placing a final prosthesis, Teeth-in-a-Day offers immediate function and aesthetics.
At North Houston Periodontics & Dental Implants, our team specializes in full-arch fixed implant teeth using modern planning tools and implant systems. We combine surgical expertise with cutting-edge digital workflows to help patients walk out with a brand-new smile—often in just one visit.

Who Is a Candidate for Teeth-in-a-Day?
Teeth-in-a-Day is ideal for patients who:
- Have lost most or all teeth in the upper or lower arch
- Are currently wearing uncomfortable or loose dentures
- Have failing teeth due to decay, gum disease, or trauma
- Want a long-term, non-removable alternative to traditional dentures
- Seek a faster timeline to restore chewing, speaking, and smiling confidence
Before recommending treatment, we complete a thorough evaluation using 3D cone beam CT scans and diagnostic imaging to determine bone volume, implant position, and the best restoration strategy.
How All-on-4 Dental Implants Work
The All-on-4 dental implant technique uses four strategically placed dental implants—two in the front and two angled in the back—to anchor a full arch of prosthetic teeth. This approach maximizes available bone and eliminates the need for extensive grafting in many cases.
The process typically includes:
- Treatment Planning
We use digital imaging to assess jawbone quality, simulate implant placement, and design a fixed prosthesis. - Surgical Placement of Implants
Implants are placed into the jawbone, often using flapless, minimally invasive techniques. - Immediate Prosthesis Delivery
A temporary set of implant-supported teeth is securely attached the same day, giving patients a fully functional and natural-looking smile. - Final Prosthesis
After a few months of healing and integration, the final full-arch restoration is placed for long-term durability and aesthetics.
Patients who undergo this treatment often combine it with other services such as tooth extraction or socket bone grafting if necessary.

FAQs About Teeth-in-a-Day
Is Teeth-in-a-Day really completed in one day?
Yes. On the day of your procedure, implants are placed and a fixed temporary prosthesis is attached. However, planning and follow-up are still required before and after that day to ensure long-term success.
How long do All-on-4 dental implants last?
With proper care, the implants can last decades. The prosthetic teeth may need replacement after 10–15 years due to wear, but the implant foundation is built to be permanent.
Is bone grafting needed before the procedure?
In many cases, no. The angled implant technique used in All-on-4 often avoids the need for jaw bone grafting, even in patients with some bone loss.
Can both arches be treated at once?
Yes. Patients needing upper and lower restoration can have both arches treated in the same visit, depending on their health and treatment goals.
Will I be sedated during the procedure?
Sedation is available and commonly used to ensure your comfort. Learn more about our sedation and sleep dentistry options for surgical appointments.
