From missing teeth to fixed smile - in a single appointment
There was a time when getting dental implants meant months of appointments, temporary dentures, and waiting between stages. For some cases, that's still the right approach. But for the right patient, with the right planning, we can do it all in a single day - place the implants, fit a beautiful set of fixed teeth, and send you home with your smile restored before bedtime.
That's what teeth in a day means: not just implants placed in a day, but functioning, fixed teeth you can smile with the same evening. It's one of the most rewarding treatments we deliver, and one of the few that genuinely changes lives within hours.
Trusted by our patients
It didn't feel like I was at a dentist's - more like a 5 star hotel. The premises and facilities are amazing and you feel like you're checking in for a holiday. The staff are extremely friendly and welcoming and Dr Raja puts you at ease straight away with his charm and brilliant sense of humour. The treatment is second to none. They really know their stuff! I had spent years believing my receding gums were due to brushing too hard on the advice of my previous dentist but Dr Raja identified the true cause in the first 5 mins. I now have healthy gums and a great smile. I couldn't fault a single thing and would not hesitate to recommend them. Thank you Dr Raja and Team.
100% would recommend. I had a fear of the dentist. But the staff was wonderful and put me at ease. I can't believe my new teeth. I'm so happy.
I can't personally recommend this dental practice enough. I wish I had joined many years ago, the service is second to none! Anubha is always so professional, very reassuring and understanding when it comes to my care and treatment. The reception staff are also really friendly and helpful too when it comes to sorting out appointments etc.
Nothing but good things to say about the practice!! Had my initial consultation with Kizzy who sat down with me, took note of everything I wanted to change and talked me through my options. I opted for composite bonding and fillings done with Dr Bal - I am absolutely over the moon with my new smile. The whole process was smooth sailing from start to finish and I really appreciated the transparency throughout. All options were thoroughly discussed and I never felt pressured into making any decisions. Dr Bal's work is amazing and I cannot recommend her enough. Amy behind reception is always so lovely and welcoming - great staff all around.
I just wanted to take a moment to share my thoughts on Natural Smiles in Leicester and Corby, which I truly believe are the best of the best when it comes to dental practices. My family and I have been loyal patients for the past 20 years, and we couldn't be happier with the care we've received. Dr Bhavnish and the entire team at Natural Smiles are simply awesome. Their dedication, professionalism, and warmth make every visit a pleasant experience. If you're looking for exceptional dental care, I highly recommend giving Natural Smiles a try.
Dr Bhav treated me, can honestly say was the best dental experience I've ever had. Instantly relieved pain and extremely professional and kind. Thank you for the brilliant service! Highly recommended and fully worth it.
I have had the best experience at natural smiles, Dr Waghela is incredible and has given me the best smile I could have wished for! Amy and Kizzy on reception are so lovely the whole practice is just a lovely environment. Could not recommend more!
Left the dentist very very happy having done my composite bonding by dr Anmol. She was very helpful and asked me if I was comfortable with every step of the way and would be happy to make any changes that I wanted to be made so overall very very satisfied.
Real stories from patients who wanted to feel like themselves again
What is teeth in a day?
Teeth in a day is a same-day implant treatment that combines tooth removal (if needed), implant placement, and the fitting of a fixed temporary bridge in a single appointment. It's most commonly used for full arch replacement - the same approach as All-on-4 - but can also apply to smaller groups of teeth depending on the case.
The key word is "fixed." Your new teeth are screwed onto the implants, not held in by suction or adhesive. They don't come out. They don't move. You eat with them, sleep with them, and smile with them - all from the same day they're placed.
Who is teeth in a day for?
Not every patient is suitable for same-day treatment. The ideal candidates typically include:

Why "in a day" matters so much to our patients
Beyond the obvious convenience, same-day treatment offers real clinical and emotional advantages.
No months in temporary dentures - which can be uncomfortable and embarrassing
One major procedure instead of several - simpler recovery, less time off work
Immediate transformation - you see and feel the difference straight away
Easier emotional adjustment - no extended limbo period
Highly efficient use of your time - particularly valuable for patients travelling from further afield
Modern protocols give excellent long-term success when done by an experienced clinician
Treatment day, step by step
This is the day everything happens. Here's a realistic view of how it usually unfolds.
Arrival and final preparation
You'll be greeted, made comfortable, and walked through the day's plan one final time.
Anaesthetic
Local anaesthetic is administered, with IV sedation as an option for patients who'd prefer to be deeply relaxed throughout.
Tooth removal (if needed)
Any remaining teeth that need to come out are removed gently. Sockets are cleaned and prepared.
Implant placement
Using a digitally planned guide built from your CBCT scan, your implants are placed with millimetre precision in the optimal positions.
Healing time and rest
A break for you to relax and recover, while your fixed temporary bridge is prepared in our onsite mini dental lab.
Fitting your new teeth
Your fixed bridge is secured onto the implants and adjusted for a comfortable bite.
Aftercare and discharge
Detailed instructions, contact details, and our promise to be reachable for anything you need over the coming days.
What about the final teeth?
The set of teeth you leave with on treatment day is your fixed temporary bridge - functional, beautiful and designed to look like a final result. After 3-6 months, once your implants have fully integrated with your bone, we replace it with your permanent restoration - usually built from higher-strength materials and refined to perfectly match the bite and aesthetics we've optimised during the temporary phase.
Why experience matters more than any technology
Teeth in a day is one of the most demanding treatments in modern implantology. Every successful case relies on the surgeon's ability to read each patient's anatomy, place implants with absolute precision, and execute the entire workflow seamlessly under tight time pressure.
Dr Bhavnish Waghela has placed over 6,000 implants with a documented 98% success rate
20+ years of focused implant practice
Accepts referrals from other dentists for complex same-day cases
In-house CBCT scanner for advanced diagnostic and surgical planning
Onsite mini dental lab with 3D printing - the reason we can deliver same-day results
Personally provides IV sedation for patients who need it
Treatment coordinator acting as your concierge throughout the day
How long do same-day teeth last?
The implants themselves are designed for the long term - with good care, decades, often a lifetime. The temporary bridge fitted on treatment day is built for around 6-12 months of use while everything heals. Your final permanent bridge, once fitted, can last 10-15 years or more before needing refurbishment or replacement, depending on materials and how heavily it's used.
The financial picture - what you need to know
Same-day implant treatment is a significant investment - one of the largest most patients will ever make in their health. We're upfront about pricing because we believe transparency is the only way to make a decision this important.
Finance through V12 makes this more accessible: 0% interest over 12 months with no deposit, longer plans up to five years at 9.9% APR, and staged treatment and payments for more complex cases. We'll go through every option with you.

Caring for your new teeth
The first few weeks are the most important. We'll go through everything in detail at discharge, but here's the broad picture.
Stick to soft food for the first 2 weeks while everything heals
Avoid hot food and drinks for the first 24 hours
Take any prescribed medications and antibiotics as directed
Sleep with an extra pillow for the first few nights to reduce swelling
Don't smoke - it's the biggest single risk factor for implant complications
Use the soft brush and interdental tools we provide
Come in for your scheduled check-ups so we can monitor healing

Frequently asked questions
Can absolutely everyone have teeth in a day?
No. Same-day treatment requires good general health, adequate bone (or the right anatomy for angled placement), and a commitment to the recovery and aftercare process. For some patients, a staged approach over a few months gives a better long-term result. We'll be completely honest at your consultation about which approach suits your case best.
Is treatment uncomfortable?
Local anaesthetic means you won't feel pain during treatment itself. Some discomfort, swelling and bruising in the days afterwards is normal - and easily managed with prescribed painkillers. Most patients say the procedure was significantly easier than they'd feared, and that the discomfort was nothing compared to years of dealing with bad teeth or dentures.
Will my new teeth look natural?
Yes. Your temporary bridge is designed for excellent appearance from day one. Your final bridge takes this further, refined to match your facial features, lip line and personality. Most patients tell us they end up with a smile that looks better than their natural teeth ever did.
How soon can I eat normally?
You'll start with soft food for 2 weeks while the implants begin integrating with your bone. After that, you'll gradually return to normal eating - though we'd typically suggest avoiding very hard or chewy foods (like raw carrots or tough steak) until your final bridge is fitted.
Can I have IV sedation for treatment day?
Yes - this is exactly the kind of treatment IV sedation is well suited to. Many patients find it makes a long, complex appointment feel like it passed in minutes. Dr Bhavnish Waghela personally provides the sedation, with full monitoring throughout.
What if something goes wrong after I get home?
You'll have our direct contact number for anything that doesn't feel right. We'd much rather hear from you about something small than have you worry overnight. Follow-up appointments are scheduled at the right intervals to catch anything early.
Will I need any other dental work first?
Possibly - it depends on your overall dental health. If you have any other issues that could affect the long-term success of your implants (gum disease, infection, structural problems), we'll usually address those first. Your consultation and assessment will make this clear.
