“Implant Immediately After Extraction: When Is It Possible?”

Placing a dental implant immediately after tooth extraction can significantly shorten treatment time and help preserve natural bone and gum contours. However, immediate implant placement is case-dependent.

One of the biggest advantages of digital dentistry is the reduction in treatment time and the number of patient visits. Below is a comparison between the traditional implant workflow and the digital workflow we use in Implant and Surgery House.

Traditional Implant Prosthetic Workflow

Typical number of visits: 5–7 appointments

• Implant surgery
• Healing period (several months)
• Traditional impression appointment
• Laboratory fabrication
• Try-in appointment
• Adjustments
• Final prosthesis delivery

Traditional impressions often require physical materials and shipping to a dental laboratory, which adds additional time to the process.
