Teeth In A Day

Teeth In A Day is a full-arch implant treatment. Instead of replacing one tooth at a time, we place a set of dental implants into the jawbone and attach a full arch of fixed teeth to them during the same appointment. The implants act as anchors, so the new teeth are held in place rather than resting on the gums. Patients often know this approach by related names — All-on-4 dental implants, full arch dental implants, or implant-supported bridges — and we offer those options alongside implant-supported and snap-in dentures when a removable design is the better fit.

The people this helps most are those facing the loss of an entire arch, or already living without one. That includes patients with advanced gum disease that has loosened multiple teeth, people with extensive decay or old restorations that keep failing, and longtime denture wearers who are tired of adhesive, sore spots, and a plate covering the roof of the mouth. We also see patients who have simply avoided dentistry for years and are ready to start over with a plan that handles everything at once instead of stretching treatment across endless appointments.

A thorough evaluation comes first, because this is a surgical and restorative procedure and the planning matters more than the speed. We look at bone volume and quality, gum health, bite, and how the arches relate to one another. Bone is the most common question: if there isn't enough to support implants in a given area, we offer bone grafting and sinus lift surgery to build a stable foundation. Sometimes that means a staged plan rather than a single-day result, and we'd rather say that upfront than promise something the anatomy won't support.

Active gum disease is addressed as part of the plan as well, through scaling and root planing, gum disease treatment, or periodontal surgery when needed. We handle extractions here — simple and surgical — so the teeth being removed and the implants being placed are managed by the same team on the same day. For patients who feel anxious about any of this, we offer nitrous oxide sedation and oral sedation dentistry, and we talk through comfort options before the day arrives rather than at the last minute.

One detail that genuinely shapes how we deliver this treatment is our on-site dental lab. Having the lab in the building means fabrication, adjustments, and repairs happen under our roof instead of being shipped out and waited on. It's the same capability that lets us do same-day crowns, dentures, and denture repairs, and it gives us real control over fit and appearance during full-arch cases.

Cost, Insurance, and Getting Started

We accept all major PPO insurance plans and file claims as a general practice, and we welcome self-pay and cash patients. Full-arch treatment is a significant investment, so we offer flexible payment plans and go over the numbers in writing before anything begins.

We've cared for families in Ocala for over 30 years, and we see patients from Belleview, Summerfield, The Villages, Dunnellon, Silver Springs, Lady Lake, and the surrounding Marion County communities. No referral is needed. Call us to schedule a consultation with Dr. Salifu or Dr. Geris, and let's find out whether Teeth In A Day is the right path for you.
