Rushing a “final” full-arch in a day sounds dreamy... until it isn’t. In this candid episode, Dr. Dan and Lillia unpack why 24-hour finals often fall short: taste and aesthetics are personal (think ordering a burger “your way”), bites captured right after surgery are rarely perfect, and grinding finished zirconia can introduce long-term problems. They trace how the technology evolved–from face scans and photogrammetry to today’s faster mills and prettier zirconia–and explain why capability doesn't always equal wisdom. You’ll hear the hidden pitfalls (factory-style schedules, calibration slip-ups, even the industry’s prefab “shoebox” shortcuts) and the patient psychology that gets steamrolled when everything’s crammed into two visits. Then they contrast Done In One’s one-week, micro-appointment workflow: iterative try-ins, patient-driven tweaks, calmer recovery windows, and built-in quality checks that pinpoint where any inaccuracy creeps in. The takeaway is simple, transparent, and empathetic: yes, they can deliver in 24 hours, as many other clinics can, but the best results come from a few extra days of collaboration.Slow is smooth.

Ep. 14 - Full-Arch Prosthetics: The Behind the Scenes of Designing Confidence
In this episode of Beyond the Arches, Dr. Daniel Noorthoek is joined by restorative dentist Dr. Sarah Laks for an in-depth, behind-the-scenes look at what it takes to design and deliver a full-arch prosthetic smile. Together, they explore how function, aesthetics, and patient personality come together in the smile design process—and why clear communication is just as important as clinical skill. Dr. Laks shares how she balances “book-smart” rules with artistic instincts, navigates the emotional ups and downs patients experience after surgery, and collaborates closely with Done In One's in-house dental lab to fine-tune every detail from bite alignment to tooth shape. The conversation sheds light on the realities of multiple prototype fittings, why the “perfect smile” isn’t always perfectly symmetrical, and how the ultimate compliment is when no one can tell the teeth aren’t natural. For anyone curious about how artistry, technology, and human connection combine to create life-changing smiles, this episode offers a rare peek into the craft of modern prosthetic dentistry.🎧 Listen now and go beyond the arches with us!💻 Visit the DIO website for more information: https://getdoneinone.com📩 Email questions or comments: smile@getdoneinone.com☎️ Speak to a Patient Care Coordinator: (561) 468-8812📲 FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL MEDIA AS WE BUILD OUR COMMUNITY!
