If you’re dealing with missing or failing teeth in The Woodlands, TX, you already know how much it affects everyday life — what you eat, how you speak, whether you smile freely in a conversation. All-on-4® dental implants in The Woodlands give you a permanent solution, and at Nuvia, that means a full set of final teeth in just 24 hours.
Our center is located right off I-45 near St. Luke's Health – The Woodlands Hospital, putting us squarely on the border of Conroe and The Woodlands and easy to reach from across both communities, Spring, Tomball, and the surrounding areas of Montgomery County. The team here does full arch dental implants — and only full arch dental implants — every single day.
At Nuvia, your care isn't handled by a single provider juggling every step. Instead, a dedicated team — an oral surgeon, a restorative dentist, and a CRNA — works on your case, each focused on their one role. That means your surgeon is locked in on precise implant placement, your implant dentist is building your permanent smile, and a second licensed anesthesia professional is watching over you the entire time.
Our implant dentists in The Woodlands have taken on complex cases that were turned away elsewhere — significant bone loss, prior failed implants, patients who had been told "no" by other providers. That experience matters when it comes to restoring your smile.
Dr. Justin Cortina is the restorative dentist at Nuvia Dental Implant Center in The Woodlands, TX. He earned his dental degree from the University of Southern California and completed his three-year prosthodontics residency at Texas A&M School of Dentistry. Originally from just outside Los Angeles, he has been based in Texas for the last four years.
Dr. Cortina’s interest in working with his hands started young—remodeling homes with his father and later working on cars—and grew into a fascination with dentistry after his orthodontist took him under his wing during his teenage years. He’s a detail-oriented provider who loves being able to picture the end result of a case and work carefully back from there.
Dr. Cortina joined Nuvia for the chance to focus on full mouth care. He loves rebuilding a patient’s smile, function, and ultimately their confidence—and Nuvia’s model lets him focus on doing exactly that, without splitting his attention across other parts of the practice.
The 24 hour model makes a big difference to him. In the past, patients often left with an acrylic temporary—essentially plastic—that could degrade under normal biting forces and break at inconvenient times. At Nuvia, patients receive a final zirconia set of teeth the very next day. Zirconia is strong, durable, and aesthetic, and Dr. Cortina sees the final-teeth-in-24-hours approach as a real weight off his patients’ shoulders.
Outside of work, Dr. Cortina loves hands-on projects. Growing up, he spent weekends remodeling the family home with his dad, and today that same love of building carries over to his cars—he’s currently working on his 2007 Mustang, most recently replacing the entire rear axle.
Tanya McGowan is the CRNA and anesthesia provider at Nuvia Dental Implant Center in The Woodlands, TX. She earned an MBA and worked at AT&T before pursuing anesthesia, going on to complete a master’s in nurse anesthesia at LSU and a doctorate in nurse anesthesia at Texas Wesleyan. She has been practicing in Texas since 2011 and brings 15 years of experience to the team.
Before Nuvia, Tanya spent years providing anesthesia in complex settings—including a Level I trauma center, ambulatory surgery centers, and freestanding endoscopy centers—across orthopedics, spinal surgery, and more. She’s a self-described perpetual student who is always learning, and she brings that same energy to delivering excellent, safe anesthesia in a team environment.
Tanya chose Nuvia because of what it delivers: a permanent smile in 24 hours that can genuinely transform a patient’s life. She sees Nuvia as one of the premier full arch implant teams in the world and is proud to be part of it. Her role is to work closely with the oral surgeon and restorative doctor as an in-house anesthesia provider—an independent CRNA working alongside a team of professionals committed to doing this well.
For patients who are nervous, Tanya reassures them that it’s completely normal—and that they’ll be cared for by a vigilant, diligent team focused on comfort and safety.
Outside of work, Tanya and her partner David—a geologist—love to travel and explore diverse cultures around the world. They’ve hiked Machu Picchu in Peru, the Annapurna trek in Nepal, and traveled to Tanzania and the Serengeti as well as the Gobi Desert in Mongolia. At home, they share their lives with a full crew of animals: a dog, seven parrots, two turtles, and some frogs.
Dr. Delsaz Sultan is the restorative dentist and prosthodontist at Nuvia Dental Implant Center in The Woodlands, TX. She earned her dental degree from Boston University in 2013 and completed her prosthodontics residency at the University of Pittsburgh in 2016. She brings 10 years of prosthodontics experience to the team.
Dr. Sultan found that dentistry was the perfect blend of two lifelong loves: biology and science on one side, and art on the other. Her passion for prosthodontics deepened when her father received a full arch reconstruction. Watching the restorative doctor’s work firsthand—and seeing the difference it made in her dad’s life—inspired her to pursue this kind of work herself.
Dr. Sultan chose Nuvia for the chance to deliver the final restoration in 24 hours—a service she considers a real game-changer for patients—and for the culture. She describes the team as warm and welcoming, an environment that feels like family and stays truly focused on the patient.
She’s especially passionate about the permanent teeth in 24 hours model. In her 10 years of experience, she has watched patients spend six months in bulky acrylic temporaries that could break at inconvenient times—sometimes forcing emergency visits while she was traveling.
Outside of work, Dr. Sultan is a busy mom of three—two boys, nine and seven, and a one-year-old daughter—and they are the joy of her life. When she’s not playing with the kids or shuttling them to games and activities, she loves Pilates, yoga, and Zumba classes. She’s also an avid traveler, with a particular soft spot for Italy—Venice, Florence, and the Amalfi Coast are at the top of her list, and she can’t wait to go back.
The traditional dental implant process can be outdated, inconvenient and long. Nuvia’s 24hr permanent teeth process is safe, convenient and fast.

*Not all those who come in for a consultation are eligible for this treatment. Results may vary in individual cases.
Which is a better environment for your implants to heal—a flexible “healing” denture that can break, or Nuvia’s permanent teeth that can withstand up to 520+ pounds of force*? We place your permanent teeth the day after surgery so your implants get the stable support they need while your body naturally heals.
Here's exactly what to expect when getting your new smile with permanent teeth in 24 hours at Nuvia in the Woodlands.
Step 1 — Your Consultation
You come in, your team does a full evaluation including imaging of your jaw to check your bone levels, and you find out whether you’re a candidate, what your treatment plan will be, and what your exact investment will be. No pressure, no vague estimates. Just all the information you need to decide if a new smile is right for you.
Step 2 — Smile Design
You then get to work with your restorative dentist to design how your new teeth will look — the size, shape, and shade. Our in-house lab starts on creating the permanent zirconia teeth you design as soon as surgery is complete.
Step 3 — Procedure Day
You arrive, and our CRNA puts you comfortably to sleep. While you’re sleeping, the oral surgeon places your implants. You wake up with the hard part already done. Most patients describe being surprised by how quick and seamless it feels.
Step 4 — Your Permanent Teeth, 24 Hours Later
The next day you come back and receive your final zirconia teeth — not a temporary set, not an acrylic denture to live in for months while you wait. The permanent ones. Traditional All-on-4 providers, including some right here in The Woodlands, send patients home after surgery in a temporary prosthetic and have them wait for what could be up to 10 months or more for their final teeth. At Nuvia, that waiting period doesn’t exist.
Step 5 — Healing and Long-Term Care
You begin a soft-food diet immediately. Follow-up appointments confirm your implants are integrating well. By the 4 month appointment, your provider will likely clear you to eat whatever you’d like.
Patients from The Woodlands, Spring, Conroe, Tomball, Cypress, and Humble have experienced Nuvia’s Permanent Teeth in 24 Hours process, which has a {{success_rate}} success rate — outperforming traditional methods, which studies report at 93.3% to 98%.
Ask anyone who has lived for years with failing or missing teeth and they'll tell you missing teeth isn't just about the smile. It can mean avoiding certain foods, laughing carefully at a work dinner, skipping photos because hiding your teeth has become second nature. Patients who get All-on-4® dental implants don't just describe getting new teeth — they describe getting back to a version of themselves they had no longer thought possible.
And the impact on health is just as real: failing teeth accelerate bone loss in your jaw and are tied to systemic issues including cardiovascular disease and diabetes risk. Fixing the problem permanently isn't just cosmetic, it can be an investment in your overall health.
Dentures may seem like the more affordable option upfront, but the full picture looks different.
Dentures often need to be relined or replaced every five to seven years. They can require adhesives and special cleaning, and don't stop bone loss — meaning your jawbone continues to resorb beneath them, changing your facial structure over time and reducing your chance of being eligible for a permanent solution in the future.
When you add up replacements, relining, adhesives, and eventual bone grafting if you later pursue implants anyway, the cost gap narrows significantly.
Dental implants are a one time cost that halt bone loss, are brushed and flossed like natural teeth, and when cared for properly can last a lifetime. Many patients find they were the more affordable investment all along.



Dental anxiety is real and it keeps a lot of people from getting care they need. At Nuvia The Woodlands, you’re comfortably asleep under general anesthesia for the procedure. A licensed CRNA manages your anesthesia and monitors you throughout. The surgeon focuses on placing your implants. These are separate people with separate jobs, and that separation is what makes the process incredibly safe.
It’s not common for most Woodlands-area providers who offer All-on-4® to have a dedicated CRNA in the room for every procedure. That’s a difference that makes the Nuvia experience unique.

Each patient receives essential post-op supplies, instructions, and emergency contacts for ongoing support

All dental instruments undergo a rigorous multi-step sterilization process, maintaining the utmost hygiene standards.

Our treatment rooms are thoroughly cleaned and sanitized after every patient, creating a pristine environment for your care.

Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetists ensure you are safely asleep and comfortable, while our skilled surgeons focus solely on crafting your perfect smile.

Rest easy, knowing that your breathing is in expert hands throughout your procedure with our secured airway protocol.

Our state-of-the-art 3D scanning technology allows us to meticulously plan implant positions, minimizing risks and ensuring precise results.

With our expert anesthetists at your side, you'll safely and comfortably sleep through the entire procedure.

Our team, comprising seasoned surgeons, attentive assistants, skilled anesthetists, and restorative doctors, are artisans in their fields.

Our patients often express amazement at the minimal discomfort they feel after surgery. Most find that over-the-counter pain relievers suffice for a day or two after surgery

The cost varies based on your specific case — the number of extractions needed, your bone health, and the final restoration design. Rather than giving a number that may not apply to your situation, we’ve built a free Full Mouth Dental Implant Cost and Information Guide that walks through pricing in detail, including what affects cost and how patients typically finance treatment.
Both involve placing four implants to support a full arch of teeth. The difference is what you go home with. Most All-on-4® providers — including several in The Woodlands area — attach a temporary set of healing teeth on surgery day and have you return weeks or months later for your permanent teeth. Nuvia’s in-house lab instead works on your final zirconia teeth overnight, so you receive them the next day. No temporary. No 10-month wait.
Possibly, yes. Bone loss doesn’t automatically disqualify you. In some cases, advanced techniques including zygomatic implants can make treatment possible even when traditional placement isn’t an option. The best way to know is a consultation with imaging — our team regularly sees patients who were turned away elsewhere.
Many people who are missing all or most of their teeth in one or both arches — or who have failing teeth that need to be removed — are candidates. Doctors will review your overall health situation with your primary doctor and check for sufficient jawbone at your consultation, though bone loss doesn’t always rule you out. The 60-second eligibility quiz is a quick way to see if it’s worth scheduling a consultation.
Most insurance plans don’t cover full mouth implants, though some may cover a portion of extractions. Even though insurance isn’t a reliable way to make dental implants affordable, financing options like those that 92% of Nuvia patients use can make a new smile more affordable than most people think.
Most patients are back to daily activity within a few days. You’ll start on a soft-food diet immediately after surgery and follow specific aftercare instructions from your surgeon. The implants typically take three to six months to fully integrate with the jawbone, but that process happens in the background — you’re living normally with your permanent teeth throughout.
