Immediate Implants
Smile Again in Just One Visit with Immediate Implants in Garner, NC
Imagine a chipped tooth or a gap in your smile causing social anxiety and difficulty eating. Traditional dental implants require waiting months for the jawbone to heal after tooth extraction before implant placement. But what if you could restore your smile and regain full functionality in just one day? All Star Implants offers a revolutionary dental technique called immediate implants in Garner, NC.
What Are Immediate Implants?
Immediate implants are a dental procedure in which a dental implant, typically a titanium post, is placed into the jawbone immediately after a tooth extraction. This technique allows placing a prosthetic tooth shortly after the extraction, reducing the waiting period usually associated with traditional implant procedures.
The difference with immediate implants is that the dentist fits them immediately after extraction. Implants take three months to heal before any final restoration is made or attached. After osseointegration, you will have the implant crown (the final part of the restoration) permanently fixed. However, immediate implants can be placed on the same day as the tooth extraction.
Benefits of Immediate Implants
Immediate implant is a dental procedure where a dental implant is positioned immediately after a tooth or teeth removal. This technique offers several advantages:
- Shorter Treatment Time: Immediate implant streamlines the entire treatment process, allowing patients to complete it in just one visit. Instead of waiting several months, patients can have a new tooth or teeth in hours.
- Preservation of Bone: Following tooth extraction, the jawbone in that area tends to resorb or shrink. Immediate implant placement helps maintain bone integrity by filling the empty socket with the implant as a substitute for the tooth root.
- Improved Aesthetics: With immediate implants, patients can enjoy new teeth that closely resemble natural ones in appearance and feel. This enhancement can significantly boost their overall appearance and self-confidence.
- Enhanced Functionality: Implants are designed to function like natural teeth, allowing patients to eat, speak, and engage in daily activities without concern about their teeth shifting or becoming loose.
- Reduced Risk of Complications: Compared to traditional implant placement methods, immediate implant placement can lower the risk of complications such as infection or implant failure. This is because the implant is secured promptly after tooth extraction, reducing the chances of issues arising during the healing process.
- Cost-Effectiveness: Immediate implant is a cost-effective option for patients. It reduces the number of office visits and overall treatment time, making it a more economical choice in the long run.
The Immediate Implant Process
Our experienced dentists will perform immediate implant placement, leveraging years of practice and specialized knowledge of implant shapes.
The process begins with thoroughly examining the dentition and X-rays of the teeth and jawbone. The immediate implant is placed in a single session at the dental office, and tooth extraction is performed seamlessly. Patients receive local or general anesthesia for comfort during the procedure.
Following tooth extraction, they will discuss the implant type with the patient. Unlike traditional implants that require months of healing before loading, immediate implants can bear the load on the same day as the operation. This is made possible by a unique implant design that eliminates the need for bone ingrowth.
Immediate implants offer versatility, serving as standalone replacements or supporting dentures or bridges. Patients can enjoy restored functionality and aesthetics without delay with immediate loading capability.

How Immediate Implants Work?
