A badly broken molar that had to be extracted worried the patient about the waiting time before restoration. Learning about immediate implant placement opened up an option to shorten treatment time.
Assessing Suitability for Immediate Placement
After checking the bone and gum tissue around the site of the tooth to be removed, the doctor confirmed the conditions were suitable to place the implant fixture in the same extraction appointment.
A Significantly Shorter Wait
Compared with the traditional approach of waiting for the bone to fully heal before placement, the patient saved considerable time while still ensuring the safety and long-term success of the implant.
