Key Points

  • Permanent teeth in 24 hours does not rush healing—it eliminates the unstable temporary phase where many complications and failures begin.

  • The process works because of advanced planning and coordination, with surgeons, restorative doctors, CRNAs, and an in-house lab working together under one roof.

  • A shorter timeline doesn’t mean higher cost or lower quality—patients heal with their final zirconia teeth from day one, avoiding temporary upgrades, repeat procedures, and surprise fees.abl

Permanent teeth in 24 hours is safe and helps improve the healing process. Technology in dentistry is advancing at an incredible rate and allows dentists to provide safe, high-quality teeth without compromising the health and safety of the patient. Without experience using modern dental technology, some may incorrectly believe that teeth cannot be safely made in 24hrs.

Permanent teeth in 24 hours is achieved through using advanced technology, not shortcuts. The speed reflects optimized workflows, not a reduced standard.

The traditional methods of doing All-on-X with a conversion denture has clinically shown higher complications such as fractures and implant failure. This temporary teeth phase is unsafe, and unaesthetic.

Permanent teeth in 24 hours does not rush healing and, in fact, helps the healing process. It also removes the most unstable phase of treatment — the temporary phase — where many complications begin.

Why “24 Hours” Sounds Risky

It’s extremely rare to find a provider who can offer permanent teeth in 24 hours, which is why people think the shorter timeline is risky and unsafe. 

The “teeth-in-a-day”, also known as “all-on-x”, procedure was first introduced into dentistry over 20 years ago. It involved placing implants and attaching an acrylic denture to those implants immediately after surgery:

Traditional “Teeth-in-a-day” aka “all-on-x” timeline:

  • Surgery - 4 to 6 implants are placed

  • Prosthetic - Temporary acrylic teeth are attached the same day (thus “teeth in a day”)

  • Temporary Phase - Patients wear these temporary teeth up to 6+ months

  • Permanent Teeth – A new set of teeth are made using permanent materials

The traditional “Teeth-in-a-day” technique and methods were innovative and ground-breaking when they were first introduced in the late 1990’s. This technique is still being used, to this day, with very minimal changes to the methods and materials but dentistry has seen a massive acceleration into the digital era during the 21st century. 

Key innovations, such as CAD/CAM technology, digital imaging, and 3D printing, transformed dentistry from manual, invasive procedures into precise, digitally driven, and minimally invasive practices.

Nuvia can safely and efficiently deliver permanent teeth in 24 hours by improving upon the traditional “Teeth-in-a-day” techniques and using the most advanced technology available.

The first step to getting permanent teeth in 24 hours is to see if you may be a candidate with the 60-second quiz.

Planning Is the Key to Success

Permanent teeth in 24 hours is possible because the whole process begins at the consultation appointment. Key pieces of information such as radiographs, photos, measurements, and advanced digital imaging are collected at the consultation. This information is used by the surgical and restorative teams to begin the planning process before your consultation is even complete.

Every Nuvia Dental Implant Center has an in-house lab that coordinates with the clinical team to ensure all the planning and design information is accurate and doctor approved.

Extensive and continuous planning goes into creating permanent teeth in 24hrs. It is a very labor-intensive process that begins at consultation and results in patients being able to heal with their permanent set of teeth right away. 

Respect the Healing Process

The healing process and timeline must be respected - The body sets the pace.



The traditional “teeth-in-a day” method involves a temporary teeth phase that can last 6+ months while the body heals. A well-documented issue with the temporary teeth is that they often fracture, and break during the healing process. This is stressful, embarrassing, and will require multiple clinic visits to repair.

The root of the problem is that the acrylic temporary teeth are made up of multiple different materials that bend and flex when chewing forces are applied. Not only do these micro-movements lead to fractures and breaks, but also, they increase the risk of implant failure.

Advanced technology can improve the healing process by reducing micro-movement. Nuvia’s permanent teeth in 24 hours uses some of the strongest dental materials such as zirconia and titanium. These materials do not flex or bend like plastic, acrylic temporary teeth and, thus, can improve the healing process but the healing timeline remains the same.

Again, let’s be very clear - NO procedure can speed up your body’s natural healing process. 

The healing process must be respected.

Quality and Safety

Quality and safety are fundamentals to patient care. 

Nuvia’s permanent teeth in 24 hours are high quality, high strength teeth that also help create a safer environment for the implants to heal.

Nuvia’s clinical teams are made of experts who have a specific focus in their roles:

  • Oral and maxillofacial surgeons focus solely on surgery

  • Restorative doctors focus on bite, function, and esthetics

  • In-house CRNAs manage anesthesia and patient monitoring

  • In-house lab teams focus exclusively on creating your new arches

A dedicated CRNA managing anesthesia adds a critical layer of safety and allows the oral surgeon to focus on placing the dental implants. 

As a patient, you get to benefit from the comfort and coordination that comes with each of your providers working together in-house and communicating in real time. 

Nuvia’s Outcome Analysis

Full-arch dental implant procedures have a nation-wide failure rate of 2–5%.

Nuvia has a network-wide failure rate under 1% or, more accurately, an incredibly high success rate of {{success_rate}}.

Nuvia utilizes advanced technology to enhance traditional 'teeth-in-a-day' methods, creating high-quality permanent teeth in only 24 hours.

Cost: What You Need To Know

Costs tend to climb when treatment is stretched out—temporary teeth first, permanent teeth later, extra lab work, repeat anesthesia during re-do procedures, and repairs/fixes along the way. That is when fees could become unpredictable.

It is better when everything is handled in one coordinated plan rather than pay for a temporary phase and then pay for an “upgrade” or final prosthetic. This results in fewer moving parts and fewer surprises. 

There are no surprises at Nuvia. Before you even begin treatment, you’ll know exactly what your investment will be. No add on fees, no hidden costs.

Waiting doesn’t make treatment cheaper, but instead, could potentially make the surgery more complex and expensive if the available bone is limited.

Nuvia’s permanent teeth in 24 hours takes extensive planning, advanced technology, and coordination with dental experts.

The next step is simple:
