Teeth in a day is a full-arch implant procedure where extractions, six implants, and a fixed provisional arch are all completed in a single morning surgery. At 5D Smiles, UCLA-trained Dr. Henry Qiu performs every step himself — cases start at $20,000 per arch with IV sedation and zirconia final bridge included.
Why teeth in a day
Why choose teeth in a day?
Four reasons patients drive from across LA County for same-day full arch surgery.
One visit. Fixed teeth.
Extractions, implants, and same-day arch happen in a single morning. You leave with teeth that are screwed to the implants — not glued, not floating dentures.
8 AM to 5 PM. Done.
You arrive at 8, are under IV sedation by 9, surgery is complete by 1, same-day arch screwed in by 3, you're home by 5. Dinner that night — soft, but real food.
Zirconia, not acrylic
Most teeth-in-a-day clinics finish in acrylic that yellows and chips. We deliver a monolithic zirconia final arch — covered under our 10-year biological warranty (crown fractures too).
Vampire Implant biology
Every implant is placed using the Vampire Protocol — your own platelet-rich plasma drives 30–40% faster integration and dramatically less post-op inflammation.
Surgery day
How does teeth-in-a-day surgery work?
- 01
8:00 AM — Arrive, final CBCT, IV sedation
A final 3D scan verifies the plan we mapped at consult. IV sedation is started by a licensed anesthesia provider. Most patients sleep through everything that follows.
- 02
9:30 AM — Extractions and bone shaping
Any failing teeth are removed atraumatically — meaning we preserve as much bone as humanly possible. Dr. Qiu shapes the ridge for ideal implant positioning. This is the step that determines how well the arch heals.
- 03
11:30 AM — Four to six implants placed
Implants are placed at the exact angles modeled during your CBCT. Each is bathed in your platelet-rich plasma before insertion. This is biology working with hardware, not against it.
- 04
1:30 PM — Same-day arch fitted and screwed in
Your same-day arch is attached to the implants. The bite is verified, adjusted, and locked. You wake up with teeth — and a smile that's already photo-ready.
- 05
3:30 PM — Discharge with caregiver
You go home with a post-op kit, prescription pain control, and 24/7 access to Dr. Qiu's cell. Most patients eat a soft dinner that night. Back to work within 3–5 days.
What 'a day' actually means
The surgery is in a day. The smile lasts decades.
'Teeth in a day' is the marketing name for the surgical day. The implants need 3–4 months to fully integrate with bone, after which we deliver your permanent zirconia arch. The same-day arch you leave in is functional and beautiful — it's just not the forever arch.

Done by one doctor
Surgery and restoration. Same hands.
At most teeth-in-a-day clinics, a surgeon places the implants and hands you off to a different doctor for the restoration. Dr. Qiu trained at UCLA in both — he places the implants, designs the arch, and verifies the bite. One person responsible. No handoffs.

Frequently asked
Common questions about teeth in a day
- No — and you should be skeptical of any clinic that says otherwise. The teeth you leave with are a beautifully crafted same-day arch in PMMA or temporary zirconia. Your final monolithic zirconia arch is delivered 3–4 months later after the implants fully integrate. Same shape, same smile — different material.
