Immediate Load Dental Implants

Why Wait Months for a New Tooth When You Can Get One the Same Day?

Traditionally patients had to wait months after the implant is placed to get their implant supported crown. The implant dentists led by Dr. Rahmani can do the final restoration the same day as the implant is inserted. Our dental office uses only the latest and most advanced dental technologies and products available on the market in the USA, to get our patients teeth faster.

Dr. Navid Rahmani, is an internationally recognized, Board Certified Periodontist and one of the best dental implant specialists in NYC has been providing immediate load implants in Midtown East, Upper East side, and throughout the five boroughs for over a decade.

How are Immediately loaded implants different from Conventional implants?

Conventional single tooth implant treatment requires the dental implants to be left without a tooth to heal or osseointegrate with the natural bone surrounding them.

During the integration process, new bone cells grow on and around the implant surface which are specially treated to encourage this growth. This takes between three and six months for the implants to be considered stable enough to support a new crown or bridge.

Immediate Loading Dental Implants

Immediately loading implants means that a crown (or bridge) is place onto the implant(s) the same day that it is placed. It is becoming increasingly more common to immediately load the dental implant.

The advantage of immediately loading a dental implant is obvious as patients can enjoy having a new tooth without having to wait months.

Is Immediately Loading an Implant as Successful as Conventional Implant?

The technique for immediately loading dental implants is precise. It has tested extensively, and long-term studies show they are comparable to conventional dental implant treatment.

Just like with the conventional technique, immediately loaded implants must still heal and integrate with the surrounding bone. Special considerations are taken into account when planning and fabricating the immediate prosthesis directly placed after implant surgery. Also special implants that are designed to have greater stability at the time of implant placement are used to ensure that the implant can successfully integrate while the crown is on the implant.

The new dental implant crown or bridge is often a temporary prosthesis. The construction of the temporary tooth or teeth is slightly out of occlusion, meaning it will not bite or connect with the opposing teeth, in order to minimize the forces on the healing implant.

Once osseointegration has successfully occurred and the implant is fully secured within the bone, the temporary crown (or bridge) will be replaced with the final crown (or bridge), at which time the prosthesis will be in full function like all the rest of the teeth.

Where a dental implant bridge is used, it is constructed so the dental implants are virtually locked together and cannot move, ensuring that osseointegration can still take place.

Can Everyone Get Immediately Loaded Implants?

Unfortunately not everyone is a suitable candidate, which is why Dr. Rahmani carefully assesses each and every patient wishing to have dental implant treatment. He always recommends the option he feels provides the best and most long-lasting results.

Even if he can’t immediately load dental implants, conventional dental implant surgery will only take a few months longer, which is worth the wait considering dental implants could last for life, when properly cared for.
