If your circumstances are right, same day dental implants can allow you to spend only a brief time in the dentist’s chair and leave with beautiful, functional teeth you’ll love. When you select same day dental implants from a San Diego Dentist Association member, it really is possible.
Remarkable same day dental implants restore a whole upper or lower arch – not just a single missing tooth – and are a fixed, nonremovable prosthesis mounted on only 4, 5 or 6 implants. They’re the right choice when it’s time to step up from a removable denture or you’re having extractions done and aren’t sure which restoration option is the best idea.
Following an assessment and consultation appointment, you can visit your chosen SDDA dentist for a single treatment session and leave the office with both your permanent implants and your temporary dentures to beautifully replace your upper or lower natural teeth.
Same day dental implants are popular today because they save money, hassles and time while providing astonishing results. The success rate is high, the amount of pain is minimal, and this one-day procedure can restore a complete arch quickly and efficiently.
How Same Day Dental Implants Work
The first step in getting same day, full arch replacement dental implants at a San Diego dental office is usually taking x-rays and CT scans. These scans generate a 3D model and provide most of the details needed to plan your procedure. In addition to creating a surgical guide for our team, these scans also provide the details necessary for the fixed provisional prosthesis to be made for attachment the same day as the implant surgery.
These things are done in advance of your surgical day:
- Preparations for extracting your remaining teeth on the arch to be replaced
- Planning for the length, size, location and number of dental implants to be done
- Creation and review of the complete surgical guide based on the 3D model made from the scans
- Creation of temporary teeth to be inserted immediately after the implant surgery
- Preparation of anesthesia so that it’s ready when you arrive
- And more.
Using the materials prepared in advance, your SDDA dentist places your same day dental implants precisely. In most cases, you will be fully awake when your new teeth are placed on the implants installed during the surgery. Please understand that the procedure takes several hours from your arrival at the dental office until your departure, but the process is completed in one day. Follow-up visits are necessary, of course, to see that your mouth is healing and that everything fits and works as it should. Adjustments can be made if necessary.
