Jaw In A Day
A coordinated, same-day approach to jaw reconstruction and immediate teeth replacement — digitally planned and prosthetically guided for comfort and predictability.
At Tampa Advanced Dental Solutions, our team offer advanced treatment options inspired by the Jaw-In-A-Day™ approach, a coordinated procedure where jaw reconstruction, dental implant placement, and delivery of temporary teeth occur in a single, planned visit. Our team provides a restorative-driven, digitally guided process designed to support your comfort, function, and confidence from day one, working alongside your reconstructive surgical team.
What Is Jaw-In-A-Day?
Jaw-In-A-Day is a coordinated surgery where:
- Damaged or diseased jaw segments are removed
- The jaw is reconstructed (often using a patient’s own bone, such as a fibula graft)
- Dental implants are placed
- A new set of temporary fixed teeth is delivered
Traditionally, this process required multiple surgeries and could take six to 12 months before receiving teeth. Current research shows that the modern Jaw-In-A-Day approach can reduce this timeline dramatically while maintaining high success rates and patient satisfaction.
Our Role in Your Care
Jaw reconstruction requires a multi-specialty team. Your reconstructive surgeon performs the jaw resection, free-flap reconstruction, bone shaping, and preparation during surgery, and at times, implant placement.
Our Team Handles:
- Digital planning of the new smile and implant positions
- Designing and fabricating the temporary teeth
- Intraoperative guidance for implant alignment
- Implant placement
- Placement of multi-unit abutments
- Delivery and adjustment of the immediate fixed prosthesis
- Healing follow-up and design of the long-term prosthesis
Together, we create a seamless and coordinated experience while keeping your comfort, aesthetics, and long-term function at the center of the plan.
Our Workflow
- Referral and coordination with your reconstructive surgeon
- Comprehensive prosthodontic evaluation
- Digital planning and smile design
- Surgery day: Reconstruction, implants, and temporary teeth
- Healing and follow-up
- Final prosthesis and long-term maintenance
The Benefits to this Approach
A Faster Return to Normal Life
Immediate temporary teeth restore confidence, appearance and day-to-day function right away, helping patients speak, smile, and engage socially without a prolonged toothless period. Studies consistently highlight dramatic improvements in psychological well-being and early quality of life.
Eat, Speak, and Smile Sooner
Most patients resume routine chewing within approximately three months. This accelerated functional recovery is a major advantage over delayed or multi-stage protocols and contributes directly to patient comfort and satisfaction.
Immediate Teeth That Support Esthetics
Temporary teeth placed at surgery help maintain facial contours, lip support, and speech, allowing patients to feel “more like themselves” immediately after treatment. Patients overwhelmingly report feeling reassured and more confident with immediate restoration.
Fewer Surgeries, Less Downtime
Instead of multiple procedures spaced across six to 12 months, reconstruction, implant placement, and provisionalization happen in one coordinated plan.
Why Choose Tampa Advanced Dental Solutions
Specialists Leading Your Smile Design
Our team prioritizes the design of the final teeth, including aesthetics, bite, and long-term function from the very beginning.
Digital Precision at Every Step
Using 3D imaging, virtual surgical planning, and custom surgical and prosthetic guides, we plan the new smile before surgery day. This improves accuracy, safety, and aesthetic predictability.
In-House Lab for Immediate Customization
Our on-site lab allows us to design and fabricate temporary teeth tailored specifically to your reconstruction. This creates a smoother experience on surgery day and ensures your immediate teeth feel and look as natural as possible.
Seamless Collaboration With Your Surgical Team
We work closely with your ENT, head and neck, microvascular, or oral surgical team to unify the entire reconstruction and implant plan. You receive a coordinated approach where every specialist knows exactly what the others are doing.
Experience With Complex, Multidisciplinary Care
Because we routinely manage oncology, trauma, and congenital reconstruction cases, we understand how to guide patients through medically complex situations with clarity, compassion, and predictable outcomes.
A Supportive, Patient-Centered Experience
Jaw reconstruction can feel overwhelming. We make sure you understand each phase, feel supported by our team, and have a clear roadmap from your first visit through your final smile.
The Ideal Candidate
You may be a candidate if you:
- Require jaw reconstruction for benign tumors, trauma, osteonecrosis, or congenital conditions
- Are medically appropriate for a single coordinated surgery
- Have adequate donor bone for reconstruction
- Prefer a fixed solution rather than removable prostheses
- Are motivated for follow-up care and long-term maintenance
