Prosthodontic Insights Newsletter

TEETH IN A DAY^TM provides an implant supported prosthodontic reconstruction for patients who have an extreme aversion to the use of removable prosthesis. Other patients may want their newly placed implant-supported teeth to be available for use immediately because of personal commitments or because of the nature of their business. This procedure can be performed under local or general anesthesia. Optimal esthetics are an extremely important aspect in achieving patient satisfaction; and special attention must be made to reestablish the occlusal vertical dimension for form and function.

In the maxillary TEETH IN A DAY^TM case presented, all of the implants appeared to be well osseointegrated and functioning under load since the time of implant placement. Six months later the patient reported that her dentition felt "healthy and strong and more beautiful than ever".
