Immediate Implants & Tooth fixing after tooth Removal

Normally implant is placed few weeks or months after the extraction of non treatable tooth. Bone is allowed to heal around the implant for 3-4 months and then the tooth is fixed. Hence there is a long waiting period for the patient to get the implant tooth with this method.

With the advanced technology in the implant design and improved skills, implant can be placed immediately after the tooth removal and the tooth can also be fixed to the implant within minutes in many cases.

Advantages

• The lost tooth root and tooth is replaced immediately within minutes in the form of implants.
• No waiting period for implant placement and tooth fixing
• Immediate implant placement help to preserve the anatomy of surrounding bone and soft tissues as it reduces resorption of the supporting bone.
• Avoids psychological stress of missing tooth for long time.
