How same-day implants work
When you have enough healthy bone and the implant achieves strong initial stability, Dr. Kadivar can attach a temporary restoration immediately after placement. The implant continues to heal beneath it, and a permanent crown or bridge is fitted once integration is complete.
Who is a candidate?
Same-day implants are not right for everyone. Good candidates have adequate bone density and healthy gums, and do not smoke heavily. A 3D CBCT scan during your consultation confirms whether immediate loading is safe for you.
Frequently asked questions
Will the same-day tooth be my final tooth?
No. The same-day restoration is a temporary that protects the implant while it heals. Your final, permanent crown or bridge is placed after the implant has fully fused with the bone.
Is everyone a candidate for same-day implants?
Not always. Sufficient bone, healthy gums and strong implant stability are required. Dr. Kadivar uses a 3D scan to determine whether you qualify.
