Same-day dental implant placement

In Zabalegui dental and facial medicine, we place dental implants dental implants the same day of the extraction of the original tooth. Until a few years ago, the success of dental implant treatment was subject to one indisputable condition: a rest period of 4 to 6 months from implant placement to prosthesis placement.

However, more than 15 years ago, professional papers began to be published in which a fixed prosthesis was placed on the implants on the same day they were inserted. This technique allows our patients to enjoy fixed teeth in 24 hours and is called immediate loading.

Requirements for immediate placement

For immediate loading of teeth to have a good prognosis, it is essential that a series of conditions are met.

  • Adequate bone quality: the quality and quantity of bone must be sufficient to ensure adequate implant stability.
  • In cases of complete arch (upper or lower), there are two fundamental variables: being able to accommodate a sufficient number of implants and being able to distribute them appropriately.

Under these conditions, our dentists specialising in dental implants can manipulate the implants to achieve a good fit for the prosthesis, at least during the first week after insertion.

Requirements for immediate placement

In addition, the development of 3D diagnostic tools and the application of virtual treatment software virtual treatment software together with a refined traditional dental technique has increased the indications and treatment possibilities with this modality.
