Teeth-in-an-Hour™

TEETH-IN-AN-HOUR™ is a revolutionary concept providing patients with fully functioning teeth on dental implants in one single procedure that lasts about an hour. The Teeth in an hour concept, allows for collaboration between both the restorative prosthodontist and the implantologist surgeon.

 

Advantages Teeth-in-an-hour:

  • increased safety due to computerized CT Scans and markings
  • enables fabrication of a final prosthesis prior to the surgery
  • possibility for flapless surgery enabling less post operative discomfort, less swelling and less bruising
  • Patients can resume their normal activities the next day

The process starts when a CAT scan is taken that allows the generation of a 3-D model of the jawbone, which can then be used in virtual reality software to plan the implant placement.

3. Computerized Planning & CT Scan

Upon delivery of the CT Scan results, an radiographic aligner guide with index markings is done. The CT Scan is repeated and the results inclusive with the jaw marketing are ready. Computer planning programme such as Simplant are used to plan the dental implant placement surgery.

4. Fabricate Surgical Template and Final Prosthetics

The final marked information is sent to dental laboratory based in the USA for the surgical template and final prosthetics to be made.

5. Dental Implant Placement and Fit Prosthetics

Upon delivery of the surgical template and final prosthetics, the titanium implant post are placed in jaw using the template. The final prosthetics is then fitted onto the dental implant enabling a teet-in-an-hour concept.
