What Is a Same Day Smile?
Same Day Smile refers to a dental implant treatment approach that allows patients to receive a full arch of fixed, natural-looking teeth on the same day as their implant surgery. This technique is often used for those who are missing most or all teeth in the upper or lower jaw.
Using a method such as All-on-4® or similar implant-supported systems, our surgical team in Ashland places 4–6 dental implants and attaches a custom temporary prosthesis—all in a single visit.
This advanced approach is ideal for patients who:
• |
Have multiple missing or failing teeth - Especially in one or both arches.
|
• |
Are frustrated with removable dentures - And want a more stable, natural-feeling solution.
|
• |
Want immediate results - Without waiting months for functional teeth.
|
• |
Have adequate bone or are candidates for grafting - To support implant placement.
|
• |
Prefer a streamlined treatment process - With fewer surgical appointments. |
This treatment offers functional and aesthetic transformation in a single surgical visit, under the care of experienced oral surgeons.

FAQs
Is Same Day Smile really completed in one day?
Yes, the surgery and placement of your temporary prosthetic teeth are completed on the same day. After a healing period, you’ll return for your final permanent restoration, but you’ll leave surgery day with a functional, full smile.
Am I a candidate for Same Day Smile?
You may be a candidate if you are missing most or all of your teeth in an arch, have sufficient jawbone, or are willing to undergo bone grafting if needed. A consultation at Mountain State Oral and Facial Surgery will determine your eligibility.
Does Same Day Smile hurt?
We use sedation and anesthesia to ensure a comfortable experience. Most patients report only mild discomfort after surgery, which is manageable with prescribed medication and home care instructions.
How long do the implants and final teeth last?
With proper care, the implants can last a lifetime. The prosthetic teeth may need maintenance or replacement after many years, but they are built for durability and daily use. |
