Same Day Dental Implants in Irvine, CA
For certain qualified patients, dental implant treatment can be accelerated through immediate implant placement and provisional tooth replacement.
At Irvine Smile Design, advanced imaging and treatment planning allow our team to determine whether a patient may be a candidate for same-day dental implant treatment.
Depending on the clinical situation, an implant may be placed following tooth removal and a provisional restoration may be provided during the same phase of treatment. The implant must still heal and integrate with the surrounding bone before treatment is considered complete.
Not every patient is a candidate for immediate treatment, which is why a comprehensive implant evaluation is essential.
