The question of whether an implant can be placed on the same day is one of the topics frequently searched by people seeking information about the treatment. However, in oral and dental health, the same symptom or expectation does not necessarily require the same treatment for every patient. In this article, we explain the key points of the topic and what is considered during the examination.
The term “same-day implant” can be used to describe either the placement of an implant during the same session as a tooth extraction or the placement of a temporary tooth on the day the implant is placed. These two procedures are different from one another.
In what situations is it evaluated?
Early procedures may be considered when the condition of the extraction site, the presence of infection, bone volume, and the initial stability of the implant are appropriate.
How does the treatment or evaluation process proceed?
Anatomical conditions are assessed through examination and 3D imaging. If necessary, extraction, implantation, and temporary restoration are addressed as part of the same treatment plan.
What should be paid attention to?
The placement of a temporary tooth on the same day does not mean that the permanent prosthesis is complete. Same-day implant placement or loading is not safe for every patient.
Frequently asked questions
Is the same method suitable for everyone?
No. The current condition of the teeth, surrounding tissues, general health and the person's expectations are evaluated together. General times or results shared on the internet are not a substitute for an individual examination.
What should be done before treatment?
It is useful to apply for a dentist examination by informing about your current complaints, medications you use and previous treatments. If necessary, radiographic examination and opinions from relevant fields of expertise may be requested.
