Who Can Have One-Day Implants?

How Is One-Day Implant Treatment Performed?
Detailed Examination
Before the treatment, a detailed examination is performed by your dentist. The condition of your jawbone is evaluated with intraoral X-rays and tomography.
Planning
A treatment plan is created according to the examination results. The points where the implants will be placed and the type of prosthesis to be used are determined.
Surgery
Implants are placed in the jawbone under local anesthesia. Temporary or permanent prosthetic teeth are placed on them on the same day.
Healing Process
A certain amount of time is needed for the implants to fuse with the bone. Your dentist will explain to you what to look out for during this process.
