Immediate Loading Implants

Same-Day Dental Implants

Go from missing teeth to a fully functional, beautiful smile in just one visit. Learn about immediate-load dental implants and see if you are a candidate through the OIC network.

What Are Same-Day Dental Implants?

Traditional dental implants require a waiting period of several months between placing the implant post and attaching the visible tooth (crown). Same-day dental implants (also known as immediate-load implants) allow a certified specialist to place the implant and attach a temporary, fully functional tooth during a single visit.

This means you can walk into the clinic with failing or missing teeth and walk out the very same day with a complete, confident smile. No gap in your teeth, and no need to wear a removable temporary denture.

Benefits of Same-Day Implants

  • Instant Aesthetics: Never leave the clinic with a gap in your smile.
  • Fewer Visits: Streamlined process reduces the total number of appointments.
  • Faster Healing: The temporary crown helps protect and shape the gum tissue as it heals.
  • High Satisfaction: Immediate return of chewing function and confidence.

Are You a Candidate?

While same-day implants are highly convenient, they are not suitable for everyone. A certified specialist must perform a thorough 3D scan to evaluate your eligibility. In general, candidates must meet the following criteria:

Ideal Candidates

  • Have strong, healthy jawbone density
  • Are non-smokers or willing to pause smoking
  • Have good overall health and oral hygiene
  • Do not grind their teeth (bruxism)

May Require Traditional Approach

  • Have severe bone loss requiring major grafting
  • Have uncontrolled medical conditions (like diabetes)
  • Have active periodontal (gum) disease
  • Take certain bone-density medications

The Same-Day Implant Journey

1

Comprehensive Scan

A high-resolution 3D CBCT scan is taken to plan the surgery digitally, ensuring exact placement and maximum implant stability.

2

Placement & Loading

The implant post is surgically placed. In the same appointment, a custom-made temporary crown or bridge is secured on top.

3

Final Crown

Once the implant has fully fused with your jawbone (usually 3 to 6 months), you will return to have your permanent, durable crown placed.
