How Teeth in a Day Works
The secret to Teeth in a Day lies in strategic implant placement. Using 3D CT scans and computer-guided surgery, Dr. Ilyabayev identifies the areas of your jaw with the highest bone density before any implants are placed. Once the implants are placed, a temporary, high-strength bridge is attached the same day, stabilizing the implants during healing while giving you immediate aesthetic and functional results. For patients with complex bone profiles, Subperiosteal or Zygomatic anchors can often be integrated to ensure the stability needed on day one.
Are You a Candidate?
Not every patient qualifies for same-day loading. Eligibility depends on having sufficient bone density and quality to support an implant immediately, healthy gum tissue free of active infection, and overall health that supports a good surgical outcome. Dr. Ilyabayev evaluates each of these during your consultation and imaging.
- Sufficient bone density. Enough bone to support an implant immediately
- Healthy gum tissue. Free of active infection or disease
- Good overall health. Supports predictable healing after surgery
If You Are Not an Immediate-Load Candidate
Delayed placement typically means waiting three to six months after an extraction, either for the socket to heal naturally or for a bone graft to take hold. During that window, several temporary options can close the gap so you are not without a functional, natural-looking tooth.
Common temporary options
A bonded false tooth attached to a neighboring tooth, an Essex retainer with a replacement tooth built in, a removable partial denture, or a removable flipper can all bridge the gap while your jawbone prepares for the implant. Dr. Ilyabayev will recommend whichever option fits your situation and timeline.
Teeth in a Day vs. Traditional Implants
Both approaches place the same titanium implants. The difference comes down to timing, and each has real tradeoffs worth understanding.
| Feature | Teeth in a Day | Traditional Implants |
|---|---|---|
| Appointments for placement | 1 to 2 visits | 3 to 5 or more visits over several months |
| Time without teeth | None, temporary bridge attached same day | Weeks to months while healing, sometimes with a removable option in the meantime |
| Jawbone healing | Implant placed immediately, helping preserve bone | Waiting period can allow some bone loss before placement |
| Eligibility | Requires sufficient bone density and gum health upfront | Works for a wider range of patients, including those who need bone grafting first |
If you are not an eligible candidate for immediate loading, Dr. Ilyabayev may recommend delayed placement instead, waiting for healing or a bone graft before the implant goes in.

Recovering After Teeth in a Day
Because implants and a temporary bridge are placed in the same visit, the first few days matter more than they would with a traditional, staged approach. Mild swelling and soreness are normal in the first 48 to 72 hours, managed with the medication Dr. Ilyabayev prescribes and a soft-food diet while the surgical sites begin to heal. Protecting the temporary bridge during this early window, avoiding hard or sticky foods and any pressure on the new implants, gives the bone the best chance to fuse properly. Osseointegration, the process where the implant fuses with the jawbone, typically takes three to six months before your permanent restoration is fitted.
Living With Your Temporary Bridge
Your temporary bridge is built to function like real teeth while your implants fuse with the jawbone, but a few adjustments help protect it during the months-long healing period. Stick to softer foods and avoid biting directly into hard items like apples or corn on the cob, cutting food into smaller pieces instead. Most patients also notice a brief adjustment period with speech, since the bridge changes the shape of the roof of the mouth slightly, though this typically resolves within a couple of weeks as your tongue adapts.
Once osseointegration is complete, usually three to six months after placement, Dr. Ilyabayev takes final impressions and fabricates your permanent restoration, replacing the temporary bridge with a result designed to look and function like your natural teeth long-term.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Teeth in a Day Safe?
Yes, for the right candidates. A systematic review of 34 studies covering more than 5,300 immediately loaded implants, with a mean follow-up of about six years, found a mean survival rate of 97.4 percent (NIH/PMC).
Will I Really Leave With Teeth the Same Day?
Yes, for eligible patients. A temporary, high-strength bridge is attached the same day your implants are placed, so you are never without teeth during healing.
What Happens if I Am Not a Candidate for Same-Day Implants?
Dr. Ilyabayev will recommend delayed placement instead, typically three to six months after extraction, and can fit you with a temporary option like a bonded false tooth, an Essex retainer, or a removable partial denture in the meantime.
Is Teeth in a Day Only for Full-Arch Cases?
It is most commonly used for full-arch restorations, especially for patients tired of removable dentures, though the same-day approach can apply to other situations depending on your anatomy.
Does Insurance Cover Teeth in a Day?
Coverage varies by plan. Because this is a larger treatment plan, Bayside Dental Arts offers a free consultation, along with PPO insurance and financing through CareCredit, Cherry, Alphaeon, and LendingClub.
