For many patients, the idea of restoring their smile with dental implants often comes with concerns about long treatment timelines, multiple surgeries, and long healing periods. But what if it were possible to receive your new smile in just one day?
Thanks to advancements in dental technology and surgical protocols, One-Day Implants — also known as immediate-load implants — are transforming lives with speed, precision, and reliability.
What Are One-Day Dental Implants?
Traditionally, dental implant treatment involves a multi-step process that can take several months. With one-day implant protocols, however, patients can undergo tooth extraction, implant placement, and receive a provisional prosthetic — all in a single visit.
This is possible through precise digital planning, 3D imaging, and the use of biocompatible implants that integrate quickly with the bone.
Who Is a Candidate?
Not everyone qualifies for same-day implants. Ideal candidates are:
- In good general and oral health
- Non-smokers or willing to quit
- Free from uncontrolled periodontal disease
- Have sufficient bone structure or are eligible for guided bone regeneration
A thorough evaluation using digital smile design (DSD) and 3D scans is critical to determine eligibility.

✔️ Immediate results: Walk out with a full smile the same day
✔️ Minimized downtime: Fewer appointments, less disruption
