If you undergo extraction, you might be concerned about the length of time you’ll have to spend with a missing tooth before your dental implant can be placed. While some cases of tooth extraction require a healing period or another dental procedure before implants can be placed, some patients can undergo immediate placement with no complications.

Criteria for Immediate Implant Placement

Two factors must be considered before you are deemed a candidate for immediate implant placement after extraction.

Infection – The extraction site should be free of inflammation, gum disease, or other infection. If any of these conditions are present, they will need to be treated before implant can be placed.

Bone density – Dental implants cannot be placed unless a sufficient amount of bone is present to support them. If bone deterioration has occurred, or if the implant cannot be placed and stabilized, you will need to undergo a period of healing and may be even bone grafting procedure before getting dental implants.

Advantages of Immediate Dental Implant Placement

Immediate implant placement reduces the amount of time you’ll have to spend in the dental chair, and it allows a quicker treatment period.  Often, a tooth can be removed, the implant placed, and a temporary crown can be placed in the same day.

Immediate Loading After Implant Placement: 

Traditionally, dental implant treatment has been performed in two steps. The first involves carefully installing the implant, which is then left for three to six months to heal and integrate with the jawbone. During the healing period, the patient is provided with a temporary prosthesis until the permanent crown(s) can be attached to the implant(s).

Today, there is an alternative to the two-step method that allows you to have the implant installed in single session. This new method has significantly simplified the procedures, making the experience more pleasant and less complicated for patients. You can have your implant and crown placed onto the implant within a day. The result of this treatment protocol is instant aesthetics and function. Whether or not you are a suitable candidate for immediate loading depends on several factors, such as your general dental health, the number of missing teeth and which teeth are being replaced. These factors will also determine the total number of visits to the dentist throughout the treatment period. Immediate loading can apply to a single missing tooth as well as patients with no teeth wearing full dentures.
