Assoc. Prof. Dr. Elif Öncü explains the details of the same-day implant and temporary prosthesis application, which puts an end to the fear of being toothless for days after tooth extraction.
Same-Day Implant is Possible in the Right Patient
Yes, in suitable cases, implants can be placed in the same session as tooth extraction. Thanks to advanced implant designs and advanced digital planning technologies, temporary fixed prosthesis application can also be done on the same day without the need to wait after the operation.
What are the Advantages of This Method for the Patient?
- Comfort of Not Being Toothless: The patient never remains toothless during the treatment process and continues their social life uninterrupted.
- Short Treatment Time: Since the process progresses in an integrated manner, the total treatment time is significantly shortened.
- Aesthetics and Function: Both aesthetic concerns are eliminated and the quality of daily life is preserved.
Criteria for Treatment
Since each patient’s jaw structure and bone quality are different, this approach achieves great success in the right cases and the right patient. A doctor’s examination is essential to create the most suitable treatment plan for you.
