fixed teeth

I'd prefer a less technical version and I think that 'fest' means that it is not about a replaceable denture.

Fixed teeth in one day.
For many people losing their teeth is the stuff of nightmares. It conjures up images of loose dentures that move when you talk, eat or even smile. The prospect of having to cut up your food into tiny pieces, of not tasting that food and of taking your teeth out to soak them overnight, is not a pleasant one. Trying to prolong the life of failing teeth can do irreparable damage to the underlying bone. It is best to be decisive and act sooner rather than later. But what choices do you have?

Until recently, the only alternative to dentures was traditional implant surgery which can take many months to complete and involves wearing dentures during the process. An important breakthrough in implant treatment now allows us to replace your failing teeth with new fixed teeth in just one day.

or permanent fixed teeth


Though bridges and dentures can serve us satisfactorily, Implants provide better support and usually results in more comfortable and stable replacement teeth. It provides better chewing efficiency and allows us to have permanent fixed teeth without trimming our own natural teeth for support, or having to remove the teeth every day.
