Take the photo where you already are — kitchen, car, backyard. Face the camera, decent light, teeth showing if you can. If you would rather not show them, a closed-mouth photo still works.

Smile Design & Trial Smiles in Fremont, CA
See — and wear — your new smile before a single implant is placed
Schedule ConsultationThe Architect Draws Before The Builder Digs
You Approve The Smile First. Then We Build The Foundation Under It.
Here's the question nobody asks until it's too late: how do you know you'll like your new teeth before they're permanently in your head? At most offices, you find out on delivery day — the case was designed in a lab you never met, from a photo, by someone doing their best. If the smile doesn't quite fit your face, that discovery comes after the surgery, not before it.
We run the process in the opposite order. Before any surgery, Dr. Jain designs your new smile in your mouth — adding and reshaping composite on your existing teeth, no extractions, adjusting direction and length tooth by tooth until the result suits your face. About four hours in the chair, and you're looking at your future smile in the mirror. Then you wear it: eat with it, speak with it, show it to the people whose opinions you actually care about — for a day, several days, a week if you need it.
Only after you approve it does the engineering start. The trial smile is scanned digitally and becomes the blueprint: the shape of the building is decided, so now the foundation — implants placed at the exact depths and angles that support those exact teeth — can be laid to match. Design first, surgery second. It's how an architect works, and it's why our results fit the faces they belong to. It starts with a free consultation and 3D scan.
Your perfect smile starts with a First Look
Transformation is in your hands with First Look Smile Preview — upload your photo and get a glimpse of your potential future smile.
Before You Book Anything, See Where This Could Go
First Look is the cheapest possible way to ask the question. Send a photo from your phone and it shows you your own face with the gaps closed — no appointment and no paperwork. When you create it, your name and phone go to our team so they can follow up about the preview and consultation options, only after you agree to calls or texts.
It is a sketch, not a promise. What comes back is a simulation of a possible result, not a guarantee of any particular outcome — the smile you actually receive is designed by hand, in your mouth, and you wear it and approve it long before any surgery. What the preview is genuinely good for is the first question, the one people sit on for years: is this worth a conversation?
Preview
A moment later you are looking at your own face — not a model's — with a complete smile on it. Keep it, sit with it, send it to whoever you would normally ask.

Two Patients, Four Hours Each — And The Moment They Met Their New Smile
The Moment They Met Their New Smile
A recent patient came in with worn, uneven teeth and no idea what would actually look right on his face. No extractions, no surgery — Dr. Jain spent the session adding composite, altering shape and length, checking the result against his expressions. Four hours later the man was wearing his future smile. He kept it on for a day while he made his decision, then came back for surgery already knowing exactly what he was getting. The teeth he chews with today are the teeth he approved in that mirror.
Another patient — a mother who told us, 'I'm done raising my kids; now it's time to take care of myself' — arrived with gum disease pushing her teeth outward, loose and flaring. Same process: in one afternoon Dr. Jain redirected the line of her teeth with composite so they no longer flared, and she saw, for the first time in years, what her face looked like with a healthy smile. She approved it. Surgery followed the approved plan — eight implants per jaw, one jaw per day — and her final teeth were installed on day five. The one-week photo is the kind we build this practice on: bruising nearly gone, smile fully hers.
That's the pattern worth noticing: the emotional decision — do I like this smile? — gets made calmly, in advance, while everything is still reversible. The surgical decision then has a fixed target. Our smile gallery shows the results; this page explains why they look like they belong to the people wearing them.

From Approved Smile To Final Teeth In About 72 Hours
Approved Smile To Finished Teeth
Once the smile is approved, the full-arch rhythm is deliberate — engineered, not rushed. Day one: smile design. Day two: upper jaw surgery. We dedicate a full surgical day to each jaw rather than wrapping both into one afternoon, because implant placement is foundation work — depth, angle, spread, and torque all done meticulously, with IV sedation if you want to sleep through it. Day three: lower jaw. Day four: you rest while our on-site lab mills your teeth from the scanned design. Day five: your final teeth are installed.
No months of temporary acrylic, no twenty visits, no lab round-trips — because the manufacturing happens down the hall, the design you approved on day one is the set you're wearing on day five. And because the foundation carries enough implants for real chewing support, you leave with fixed teeth you eat with — on the soft diet your doctor sets while the implants integrate, advancing when they say so — rather than months of removable acrylic. That is the practical payoff of designing the building before laying its foundation.
If your case is a single tooth or a few teeth rather than a full arch, the same principle scales down: plan the visible result first, then place the implant to serve it. Either way, the process starts the same place — a free consultation with a 3D CBCT scan, where you'll see what's possible for your face before anyone talks about drills.
Three Tests A Smile Has To Survive
A new smile gets judged three times: in the mirror on the first morning, at dinner three years later, and in every ordinary moment in between. Those are different problems, and a smile built for only the first one tends to show it by the third. Here is what we hold each design to.
Built to be yours
- Shape, length, shade and how much tooth shows when you talk — decided with you, against your own face, never picked off a shelf.
- You wear the design and live with it before you approve it, while changing it is still easy.
Built to hold up
- Milled from dense zirconia in our own lab, seated on implants placed to carry real chewing force.
- The surgeon who places the implants is the one who designed the smile, so the foundation and the plan agree.
Built to stay simple
- Consultation, surgery and the lab that mills your teeth are all in one building — no couriers, no outside queue.
- Fixed teeth the day of surgery, and your final milled teeth in days rather than the months an outside lab takes.
Trying On A Smile —What People Ask Before They Do
What exactly is smile design — is it just a computer preview?
Computer simulation is one tool we use, but a simulation is still the computer — a picture of teeth on a screen, not teeth in your face. Real smile design here happens in your mouth: Dr. Jain adds and reshapes dental composite on your existing teeth, adjusting length, direction, and proportion until the smile suits your actual face, expressions, and personality. About four hours later you're looking at your future smile in a mirror, not on a monitor — and no teeth have been removed to get there.
Do you have to grind down or pull teeth to design the smile?
No — the design phase is additive. Composite is layered onto the teeth you already have to test shape, angle, and length, which is how a patient with flared, drifted, or worn teeth can see them corrected the same afternoon. Even teeth that are loose from gum disease can usually be redirected this way for the design. Extractions, if your treatment needs them, happen later — during surgery, after you've already approved exactly what the final result will look like.
How do I know I'll actually like my new smile?
Because you wear it first. After the design session you live with the trial smile — eat with it, speak with it, smile at people you know — for a day, a few days, or even a week or more if your schedule needs it. It's strong enough for normal use. If something feels off, we adjust the design before surgery, when changes are easy. That's the entire point: the one person who has to love this smile approves it while it's still adjustable.
What happens to the design when surgery day comes?
It becomes the blueprint for everything. Once you approve the trial smile, we scan it digitally — and from that moment the whole treatment follows the plan, the way a building follows the architect's drawings. The implants are placed at the depths and angles that support those exact teeth, and the final arch is milled in our own lab to reproduce the design you already wore and approved. Surgery executes the plan; it never improvises one.
Who actually does the smile design work?
Dr. Jain, personally, with his hands in your mouth — not a lab technician working from a photo. At most offices, smile esthetics are delegated: the case ships out, and the lab is told to 'do your best.' Here the surgeon who will place your implants is the same person who sculpts the trial smile, because the design decisions — tooth direction, lip support, how much tooth shows when you talk — are exactly the decisions the surgery has to serve. It takes longer this way. It's also why the results fit the face they belong to.
Does smile design add time or cost to full-arch treatment?
It's built into the plan, not bolted on. For a typical full-arch case the rhythm runs: day one, smile design; day two, upper jaw surgery — we give each jaw its own full day rather than rushing both into one afternoon; day three, lower jaw; day four, your teeth are manufactured in our on-site lab while you rest; day five, your final teeth are installed. The design session is where the whole treatment's decisions get made, which is exactly why it comes first and why we don't skip it.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I cannot say enough wonderful things about the Center for Implant Dentistry! From the moment I walked through the door until the moment I walked out with my beautiful new smile, I felt welcomed, cared for, and confident that I was in the right hands. I had All-on-6 full upper and lower implants. Dr. Jain and Dr. Gupta are incredibly talented at what they do. They didn’t just give me new teeth — they gave me a new lease on life. Seeing my new smile for the first time was emotional, and I honestly couldn’t be happier with the end result. The amount of skill, care, and attention to detail that went into my treatment was incredible. The entire staff was amazing from beginning to end. Everyone was welcoming, patient, kind, and made me feel comfortable throughout the whole process. Having major dental work done can be scary, but they took such great care of me every step of the way. I walked in hoping to get my smile back, and I walked out with more confidence than I could have imagined. I can smile again without trying to hide my teeth, and that means more to me than I can put into words. Thank you, Dr. Jain, Dr. Gupta, and the entire Center for Implant Dentistry team for giving me my smile and my confidence back. You truly changed my life, and I will forever be grateful. If you are considering dental implants and are nervous or unsure about taking that first step, I wholeheartedly recommend Center for Implant Dentistry. My only regret is that I didn’t do this sooner! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A truly life-changing experience.
Samyak Jain
I had been hiding my smile for a long time. Eating was difficult, smiling in photos felt uncomfortable, and little by little it started affecting my confidence in ways I did not even realize. Walking into Center for Implant Dentistry, I was hopeful, but also nervous. This was a big decision for me. Now, when I look in the mirror, I do not just see new teeth. I see my confidence coming back. I can smile freely again, eat comfortably, and feel like myself again. That is something I will always be grateful for. I highly recommend Center for Implant Dentistry to anyone thinking about dental implants. This place did not just change my smile. It changed how I feel about myself. I visited again this Implant Center for checkups and the whole staff is lovely.
