Nuvia Named 2024 Dental Implant Restoration Company
The Healthcare Business Review names Nuvia it’s 2024 Dental Implant Restoration Company for the innovative permanent teeth in 24 hour process.
You may have heard that dental implants, though life-changing, can be a lengthy, drawn out, and even frustrating process. You do not have to wait for what could be 10+ months before enjoying a new set of permanent zirconia teeth – You can get them in 24 hours.
Nuvia’s unique dental implant process, called 24-Z, lets patients skip the hassle and inconveniences of traditional methods of getting dental implants. Rather than filling your calendar with various follow up visits and dealing with cracks, breaks, and chips on temporary teeth, you can enjoy the convenience of getting dental implants and new zirconia teeth in a 24 hour period.
Many Nuvia providers have extensive experience doing dental implants the traditional way and the 24-Z way. Here is what they have to say about the process.

What Are Zirconia Teeth?
So what exactly are zirconia teeth and how do they compare to other materials traditional providers would use? We’re glad you asked. Zirconia is an incredibly durable and strong ceramic material that is much less susceptible to cracks, chips, breaks, stains and other damage that other materials used for fake teeth are.
Zirconia Teeth in 24 Hours vs Traditional Implants
24-Z, or zirconia teeth in 24 hours vastly differs from traditional dental implant treatments in a few ways. Yes, you can get your permanent teeth without waiting up to 10+ months but there are more benefits to getting 24-Z dental implants instead of traditional implants.
Materials
Traditional dental implants typically utilize materials like titanium for the implant posts and various acrylic plastics or porcelains for the fake teeth. The shift to zirconia teeth for 24-Z implants not only enhances durability but also gives patients a very strong and durable set of teeth 24 hours after dental implants are placed.
Your Dental Implant Team
As part of the 24-Z process, you can enjoy a dedicated team approach to your care. As Dr. Paola Annoni Patel, a restorative dentist at the Tampa Nuvia location, puts it, “The traditional work flow for this All-On-4® procedure involves the surgeon managing all of the anesthesia as well as a major surgery. At Nuvia we have the advantage of having a very talented CRNA on staff that helps in managing the whole sedation process. So our oral surgeon can focus directly on doing the surgery and providing [dedicated patient care] without having to split their brain into multiple different corners.”
This approach of giving each patient a dedicated team of professionals ensures that the surgical and restorative phases are seamlessly coordinated, offering a high level of patient care so patients don’t have an experience from traditional methods where "too many cooks in the kitchen" can complicate the process.
At Nuvia, you’ll get a team that only does dental implants, day in and day out. You won’t have the same experience anywhere else.

The Benefits of Full Mouth Zirconia Arches
Zirconia Teeth vs Acrylic
While zirconia teeth offer many great benefits for dental implant patients, other providers frequently use acrylic plastics to create temporary teeth for their patients. Here is how the two compare:
Durability
Zirconia offers exceptional durability compared to acrylic plastics and other dental materials. Its resistance to wear and tear is one of its most notable advantages. Dr. Albert Park emphasized that zirconia teeth are far less likely to fracture or need repairs, unlike acrylic, which can be prone to breakage and falling apart over time. This durability translates into fewer dental visits for repairs and adjustments, significantly enhancing long-term oral health and reducing overall costs.
Natural Feel
Another thing patients love about zirconia teeth is how natural they feel. Unlike acrylic, which can sometimes feel bulky or less like natural teeth, zirconia's density and weight are closer to that of natural tooth enamel, offering a more familiar sensation and function. Those who have been missing teeth for a long time may take a little more practice to get used to them.
Appearance
Zirconia teeth are known for closely resembling natural teeth, avoiding the opaque and sometimes unnatural look of acrylic false teeth.
How Much Do Zirconia Teeth and 24-Z Cost?
Every case is different. Some patients require different types of dental implants such as zygomatic implants due to bone loss, or may not need dental implants on both the top and bottom of their mouth. However, you can get information on dental implant cost, financing options, and insurance questions in the FREE dental implant cost guide.

Frequently Asked Questions About Zirconia Teeth:
Do Zirconia Teeth Look Good?
Nuvia patients love their zirconia teeth. Before getting their dental implants, each patient participates in a smile design, which may be done the same day as their initial consultation. This is where they can choose the shape of their new teeth and what they’d like their smile to look like. However, you can be the judge of whether or not zirconia teeth look good. See patients with their new smiles here.
How long do zirconia teeth last?
Zirconia teeth and Nuvia dental implants are designed to last a lifetime with proper care. For more on how to care for your dental implants, read this article about dental implant aftercare.
Are zirconia teeth expensive?
Zirconia is a high quality material that is much more durable than cheaper acrylics. This will play a role in the cost of zirconia teeth. However, it’s important to consider the maintenance of dental implants and how a higher-quality material may be less prone to breaking, cracks, and costly repairs.
