Nuvia’s Chief Clinical Officer Speaks at TEDxParkland

---

Dr. Preston Hansen, oral surgeon and Chief Clinical Officer at Nuvia Dental Implant Center, was invited to the TEDxParkland stage to spread the word about a new dental implant approach that’s transforming lives across the country—permanent dental implants delivered in just 24 hours.

In his TEDx talk, Hansen challenged traditional dental implant methods, which often leave patients waiting months for permanent teeth. Drawing from both clinical expertise and patient stories, he revealed how Nuvia’s innovative approach has eliminated the fragile “temporary teeth” phase, replacing it with permanent zirconia teeth just one day after surgery.

Dr. Hansen shared the story of Randee, a dental implant patient who hadn’t left the house in two years because of his teeth. He explained, “The shame was so overwhelming, the discomfort so overwhelming that he felt trapped right in his own home.” Unfortunately, Randee’s story is not unique.

With more than 36 million Americans missing all of their teeth, Hansen emphasized how dental health is closely tied to mental, social, and physical well-being. Studies show missing teeth have the potential to lead to isolation, lower self-esteem, and even increased risks of early death and dementia.

Backed by decades of research, digital design tools, and an expert team of oral surgeons and restorative dentists, Nuvia’s approach to dental implants is setting a new standard in dental care—making a beautiful, healthy smile accessible faster than some ever thought possible.
