FAQs

Most ForeverSmile procedures are completed in a single day.
The entire process — from removing failing teeth (if needed) to placing implants and securing your new set of fixed teeth — typically takes 4 to 6 hours per arch. You leave our office with a fully functional, beautiful smile in 24 hours.

Patient comfort is our top priority.
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, sedation, or general anesthesia depending on your comfort level. Most patients describe feeling pressure but not pain during treatment. Afterward, you may experience mild soreness for a few days, which is easily managed with medication prescribed by your doctor. Medications are provided to manage the pain.

You may be a great candidate if you:

• Have several missing, loose, or failing teeth
• Wear dentures but want a fixed, permanent solution
• Have sufficient jawbone to support implants (or are willing to explore bone grafting if needed)
• Desire a confident, natural smile without removable teeth

A 3D scan and evaluation at Ridgetop Dental will confirm your eligibility.

ForeverSmile implants are designed to last a lifetime with proper care.

Regular dental visits and good oral hygiene ensure your smile stays strong and beautiful for decades A good health and good oral care is an important factor for longevity of the fixed teeth.

ForeverSmile is truly a second chance at natural teeth.

Typically, 6+ implants per arch (upper or lower jaw) are placed. On occasion patient mouth may dictate the numbers of implants needed. Our doctors will explain this in detail during your visit.The exact number depends on your bone structure, bite, and aesthetic goals. Your dentist will use digital imaging to plan implant positions for maximum strength and support.

Most patients return to normal activities within 3-4 days.
Mild swelling or tenderness is expected, but discomfort is minimal compared to traditional implant surgeries. We provide detailed aftercare instructions to make your recovery smooth and comfortable.

In many cases, no bone grafting is needed.
ForeverSmile uses specially angled implants that maximize your existing bone structure, often avoiding the need for grafting. However, if bone loss is significant, minor grafting can be performed to ensure long-term success.

Your final All -On- 6 bridge is crafted from premium, long-lasting materials such as zirconia or nano-ceramic hybrids. These materials are biocompatible, stain-resistant, and beautifully mimic natural enamel for a lifelike smile.

The cost varies based on the number of implants and materials chosen, but patients often find ForeverSmile a one-time investment that replaces years of costly dental work.
We provide personalized estimates after your consultation and offer flexible financing options to make treatment affordable for every patient.

Most insurance does not cover the Fixed teeth in a Day. Some portions — like extractions or certain diagnostic steps — may be covered by dental insurance.
We’ll help you understand your coverage and maximize your benefits. Additionally, we offer affordable payment plans and third-party financing to make your new smile accessible.

Your new smile is easy to maintain!
Brush and floss daily (with special floss or water flosser), attend regular hygiene visits, and follow your dentist’s maintenance plan. These steps help protect your implants and ensure your smile stays bright and healthy. Our maintanance protocol will be provided in detail post treatment.

You’re not alone — and we understand.
We offer gentle sedation options, a calming environment, and a caring team that’s with you every step of the way. Most patients tell us afterward, “I wish I had done this sooner.”
