Having Your Cake and Eating It Too
In traditional dentistry, if you need a dental implant, you are usually forced to choose between two paths. Path A is “Fast but Blind,” where a dentist places the implant freehand, relying on their eyesight. Path B is “Precise but Slow,” where a surgical guide is ordered from an outside lab, taking weeks to arrive.
At DayOne, we have created Path C: The Same-Day Guided Rescue.
By bringing the entire surgical laboratory in-house with the SprintRay Pro 2 3D printing system, we can design and print a custom surgical guide within hours and place a guided implant the same day. You get the mathematical precision of a computer-planned surgery with the immediate speed of an emergency visit.
Why wait weeks for a lab when we can map, print, and place your implant today?
The “Tissue Punch” Revolution
Most patients’ fear of dental implants stems from the “flap” surgery—where the gums are cut and peeled back, followed by painful stitches. Because we use a 3D-guided system, we know exactly where the implant belongs before we ever touch your mouth.
This allows us to utilize the Tissue Punch Technique:
- No Incisions: We don’t need to “open up” your gums to see the bone. The computer already knows where it is.
- No Stitches: We simply create a small, circular entry point the exact size of the implant.
- Reduced Recovery Time: Without flaps and sutures, post-operative pain and swelling are reduced by up to 70%.
- Precision Depth: The guide ensures the implant is placed at the perfect depth and angle to protect your nerves and sinuses.
“Need a new tooth? Precise guided tech. No flaps or stitches. Same-day treatment available.”
25+ Years of Surgical Mastery
Guided surgery is a tool, but mastery comes from experience. Dr. Bergquist brings over 25 years of high-complexity surgical experience to Orlando. While 90% of general dentists are still placing implants freehand, Dr. Bergquist has invested in the digital workflow to ensure every patient receives a best-in-class process in a fraction of the time.
DayOne is a Surgical Sanctuary. We are fully staffed 7 days a week because tooth loss doesn’t respect the work week. Our 24/7 live response team ensures that if you lose a tooth at 2:00 AM, your rescue plan is already in motion by 7:00 AM.
Case Study: The Social Rescue
The “Wedding Guest” Crisis
A patient from Apopka lost a front tooth on a Friday afternoon—just 24 hours before they were scheduled to attend a family wedding.
The DayOne Rescue: We saw the patient at 10:00 AM. We performed a 3D scan, designed the surgical guide, and printed it on the SprintRay Pro 2. By 6:00 PM, the implant was placed using the Tissue Punch method. Because it was guided and stable, we were able to attach a temporary tooth the same evening. The patient went to the wedding with a fixed tooth and zero stitches. One visit. Zero delay.
The Standard of Urgent Care
We believe that “convenience” is a clinical requirement for modern patients.

Guided Implant FAQ
Does the Tissue Punch really mean no stitches?
Yes. Because the guide directs the implant with sub-millimeter precision, we only need to remove a tiny 4mm circle of tissue. This small area heals on its own within days, without the need for suturing.
What if I lost my tooth months ago?
Guided technology is perfect for existing tooth loss as well. We scan your current bone structure and plan the implant to maximize the bone you have left, often avoiding the need for expensive bone grafts.
Is a same-day implant permanent?
The titanium implant itself is permanent. Depending on your bone density, we may place a temporary crown or the final abutment the same day. Our goal is to have you walking out with a smile on visit number one.

The Minimal Surgical Approach
1. Clinical Overview: The Minimal Surgical Paradigm
The antiquated tradition of “exploratory” dental surgery—where a massive, traumatic incision (a full mucoperiosteal flap) is aggressively made simply to visually inspect the underlying alveolar bone—no longer represents the standard of care in our modern practice. Our clinic exclusively utilizes a highly calculated minimal surgical approach.
2. The Procedure Protocol
Our streamlined, data-driven workflow remarkably reduces the traumatic surgical phase to less than 10 minutes per implant through two distinct, high-precision operational steps.
We securely merge your 3D bone scan (DICOM data from the CBCT) with a high-res digital surface scan (STL file) of your teeth and soft tissue using our Shinny 3D ELF. This powerful software integration allows us to successfully “operate” in a 3D virtual environment days before your appointment, identifying the exact micron of space where the bone density (Hounsfield units) is highest, while keeping the drill safely away from the inferior alveolar nerve or maxillary sinus cavities.
During the actual physical procedure, a custom-milled surgical guide snaps rigidly over your existing teeth like a high-tech template. We utilize a precise, circular tissue punch—surgically removing only the tiny 4mm circle of keratinized gum exactly where the implant will reside—and confidently place the titanium fixture directly through the guide’s metal cylinder. Because the trajectory, depth, and angulation are pre-determined, there is absolute zero clinical guesswork, no large incisions, and zero need for painful stitches.
3. Candidacy & Diagnostics: 3D Bone Mapping
While minimally invasive flapless surgery is universally recognized as the “Gold Standard” for patient comfort, it strictly requires ultra-high-quality diagnostic data to ensure predictable, long-term success.
Patients possessing adequate cortical and cancellous bone volume, coupled with a healthy, thick band of attached keratinized gingival tissue. Because we aren’t physically “opening” the gums to visually inspect the bone, our CBCT scan acts as our infallible eyes, mathematically ensuring the implant will be completely encapsulated by robust, supportive bone.
If the 3D scan reveals a dangerously narrow “knife-edge” ridge, a fenestration risk, or a severe lack of bone density, we pivot and adjust the protocol. Guided Bone Regeneration (GBR) may be required. The ultimate goal is a “Perfect Fit” every single time, backed by infallible hard data before we ever begin the procedure.
4. Recovery: The “No-Stitch” Advantage
The clinical “nerd” secret as to why our patients feel so exceptionally well post-operatively is the strict physiological adherence to Biological Width Preservation.
Traditional “flap” surgery violently interrupts the micro-vascular blood flow to the underlying bone, which intrinsically triggers a small but permanent amount of crestal bone loss (resorption) during healing. By utilizing a clean, 4mm tissue punch, we leave the surrounding tissue entirely undisturbed, locking in the bone height.
The vast majority of post-operative nociception (pain) in implant dentistry originates from the severing of the periosteum and the high-tension pulling of the gums via suturing. Since we completely eliminate the scalpel and sutures, patients routinely report 80% less discomfort than traditional methods. The overwhelming majority of our patients return to work the exact same afternoon, requiring nothing more than over-the-counter NSAIDs (Ibuprofen).
5. Tech Specs: Digital Impressioning
After the titanium implant has successfully undergone osseointegration (the biological fusing of living bone to the titanium oxide surface over 3-4 months), we transition into the restorative phase utilizing a flawless, 100% digital prosthetic workflow.
Instead of subjecting you to “goopy” PVS impression trays that predictably shrink and geometrically distort, we precisely torque a specialized titanium or PEEK “Scan Body” directly into the implant connection. This highly engineered post acts as a flawless 3D GPS marker for the CAD design software.
We rapidly sweep the Shinny 3d ELF intraoral optical scanner over the arch to capture the exact spatial coordinates of the implant, the opposing bite, and the surrounding adjacent teeth. This robust data is transmitted instantly to the milling lab, ensuring the final ceramic crown is designed with perfect occlusal contacts (how your teeth physically bite together) and a natural emergence profile (how the artificial tooth beautifully transitions as it grows out of the gum tissue).
6. The Science of Stability
Why Screw-Retained is Uncompromisingly Superior
The overwhelming most common cause of late-stage failure in old-school, analog implants is “Cement Sepsis” (iatrogenic peri-implantitis)—a disastrous condition where excess dental glue is accidentally squeezed deep under the gum line, triggering massive chronic infection and bone loss. We permanently solve this fatal flaw by exclusively engineering Screw-Retained Restorations.
We strictly utilize a calibrated torque wrench to tighten the restoration to exactly 35 N/cm (Newton-centimeters). This highly specific preload tension guarantees the abutment screw is elongated tightly enough to never wiggle loose under the immense sheer force of daily chewing, yet remains within the safe metallurgical tolerances of the internal titanium implant threads.
Because the monolithic ceramic crown is mechanically held by an internal screw rather than permanent glue, we can easily and safely retrieve the crown for routine hygiene maintenance, tightening, or aesthetic adjustments in the future without ever having to destroy or drill off the expensive restoration.
Once the screw is definitively torqued to specification, we carefully pack PTFE tape over the screw head and meticulously fill the occlusal access channel with a high-strength, shade-matched composite resin. The result is a seamless, functionally beautiful tooth that is mechanically locked into the jaw, entirely avoiding the insidious inflammatory risks associated with subgingival dental cements.
