Teeth In An Hour®

It is now possible to have dental implants and new, fully functioning teeth in just one session. Traditionally, the implant procedure required at least two steps. The first step involves placing the implant, which was left from three to six months to heal and integrate with the jawbone. During the healing period, the patient was given a temporary prosthesis until the permanent crown could be placed.

But now, because of advances in modern dentistry, it is possible to have the implant placed in one whole piece in one single session. This new method simplifies the procedure significantly for patients. The key is computer-assisted precise placement of the implants. When the dental implant fits the surgical site precisely, there is no need to wait for bone to grow in to fill the discrepancies.

After a thorough examination using advanced radiographic studies, Dr. Chal will be directing Nobel's laboratory technicians in Sweden to prepare their patented NobelGuide®, which will be used in the fabrication of your Teeth in an Hour restoration. They will also create a framework for your new teeth.

Prior to the surgery, Dr. Chal and his master dental implant technician will make your teeth. Then, when you come in for your next appointment, your Teeth in an Hour will be ready to be inserted in the same appointment that your surgery takes place. You can try out your new teeth with a light meal in the evening.
