Missing teeth can be incredibly disruptive, making it difficult to eat, smile, or talk confidently with others. It’s easy to seek out immediate temporary solutions to partially restore your smile but what if there was a way to get permanent teeth implants just as quickly?

You can get dental implants with permanent teeth in 24 hours at Nuvia that give you back your freedom to eat, smile with teeth you love, and enjoy restored oral health.

Dental implants are the permanent solution to missing teeth that you can get just as quickly as temporary options. 

Don’t waste your time or money with a temporary solution that won’t meet your needs the same way permanent teeth implants will.

See if you may be eligible for permanent teeth in 24 hours with this 60-second quiz.

Change Your Life in 24 Hours

If you’re looking for a solution to missing teeth, chances are you’ve waited far too long to get the life and smile you deserve. 

All too often, patients who get their dental implants wonder why they waited so long.

Traditional methods of getting dental implants can take up to 10+ months to have the final, permanent teeth created after the dental implant procedure. 

In the video above, these patients are seeing their permanent teeth for the first time, 24 hours after they get their dental implants. In just 24 hours, their lives are completely changed. 

If this kind of transformation is possible, why do so many people still try temporary options? Let’s discuss

Temporary Teeth

There are numerous temporary options for replacing missing teeth - here are some of the most popular ones:

  • Dentures - Despite how some people rely on dentures each and every day, they are a temporary option to replace missing teeth. Dentures require relining, or refitting over time as the jawbone changes due to there being no teeth to keep it strong.

For many, dentures can also be uncomfortable, triggering the gag reflex or giving them sores.

Some people feel that dentures are a more cost effective option than permanent teeth implants. There are many factors that play into the cost of both of these solutions but dentures will require constant maintenance, refittings, and repairs over a lifetime where zirconia dental implants are designed to last a lifetime with proper care. That may be something to consider before deciding dentures are more cost effective.

  • Partial Dentures and Flippers - For those missing some teeth but not all, a partial denture or flipper may initially make sense. However, these too are only temporary solutions. 

These fixtures are removable, can be uncomfortable, and aren’t able to function to the same extent as healthy, natural teeth can. 

On the other hand, full mouth dental implants allow patients to eat whatever their heart desires, are non-removable, and are designed to last.

  • Teeth in a Day - Teeth-in-a-day refers to a process of placing dental implants and giving patients a temporary set of teeth to use over the course of what could be up to 10+ months until they can get their permanent teeth. 

The end result is eventually permanent teeth implants with a set of permanent teeth but it takes much longer to achieve the final product than “teeth-in-a-day” may lead you to believe. 

It’s teeth in a day, but not permanent teeth.

However, permanent teeth in 24 hours is what it sounds like. 24 hours after your dental implant procedure, you’ll have your permanent, zirconia teeth. No waiting up to 10+ months and no temporary teeth.

How Permanent Teeth Implants Work

So how is it possible to get permanent teeth in 24 hours? 

Once you’ve taken the 60-second quiz to see if you may be a candidate for dental implants, you’ll come in for a consultation.

At your consultation, the Nuvia team will ensure that you have enough bone for permanent teeth implants and you’ll get to custom design what you’d like your new smile to look like.

On the day of the procedure, you’ll have your dental implants placed. Your smile will then be created overnight at Nuvia’s lab.

The next day, you’ll return and your permanent, zirconia teeth will be placed. Find out more about the dental implant procedure here.

Permanent Teeth Implants Are Made to Look and Act Like Natural Teeth

One difference between permanent teeth and temporary teeth is the material they’re made out of. While both types of solutions are made to look like natural teeth, they don’t measure up the same when it comes to functionality.

For example, dentures, partial dentures, and flippers are often made from an acrylic plastic, similar to what’s used for acrylic fingernails. If you’ve ever witnessed one of these nails breaking, you can likely expect the same level of durability from temporary acrylic teeth.

At Nuvia, you get permanent teeth made from zirconia. This is a ceramic material that’s strength is comparable to metal. It’s incredibly durable and allows patients to eat whatever foods they’d like with more peace of mind and less worry of breaking their new teeth.
