In conventional dental implant treatments, a 2-4 month healing period is required after tooth extraction. Same-Day Implant (Immediate Implant) revolutionizes this process: tooth extraction and implant placement are performed in the same session. This method allows the implant to be placed on the same day the tooth is extracted, shortening the healing time and minimizing aesthetic losses.

What Is a Same-Day Implant?

At our clinic in Maltepe, we routinely perform this technique. Our patients can arrive in the morning without a tooth and go home in the evening with a temporary tooth.

Expert Opinion: In our experience spanning over 10 years, our success rate for same-day implants in suitable cases exceeds 97%. However, it should be noted that this procedure is not appropriate for every case.


How Is a Same-Day Implant Performed?

Step-by-Step Treatment Process

  1. Detailed Examination and Planning

    • Jaw analysis with 3D tomography
    • Evaluation of the tooth and surrounding tissues
    • Infection control
  2. Tooth Extraction

    • Painless extraction under local anesthesia
    • Preservation of the extraction socket
    • Evaluation of bone quality
  3. Implant Placement

    • Precise placement of the implant into the extraction socket
    • Primary stability check
    • Bone graft application if necessary
  4. Temporary Tooth Placement

    • Same-day temporary tooth in aesthetic zones
    • Preservation of chewing function

Note: With the sutureless implant technique, we can make the healing process more comfortable.


Advantages of Same-Day Implants

Benefits for the Patient

  • Single surgical procedure for both extraction and implant
  • No aesthetic loss - especially critical for front teeth
  • Psychological comfort - no trauma from being toothless
  • Time savings - total treatment time shortened by 3-4 months
  • Bone resorption prevention - the extraction socket is immediately filled

Clinical Advantages

  • Less swelling and pain - due to a single intervention
  • Faster healing - better bone-implant integration
  • Cost-effectiveness - one session instead of two separate procedures

Who Can Get a Same-Day Implant?

Suitable Candidates

  • Patients with adequate jawbone quality
  • Infection-free tooth extraction cases
  • Individuals with healthy gum tissue
  • Non-smokers or those willing to quit
  • Patients with well-controlled diabetes

Considerations

  • Those with bruxism (teeth grinding)
  • Patients with low bone quality
  • Teeth with severe infection
  • Those with temporomandibular joint disorders

Assessment: We can definitively determine your suitability with a 3D dental tomography.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answered by our specialist

Can a same-day implant be done for every tooth?
No, in cases of deep infection, cysts, or inadequate bone quality, healing must be awaited first. Suitability is determined through examination.
Will I feel pain during the procedure?
It is a completely painless procedure under local anesthesia. Mild post-operative pain is normal and is managed with pain medication.
What can I eat with the tooth placed the same day?
Soft foods are recommended for the first 2-3 weeks. Soups, yogurt, smoothies, etc. Avoid hard and difficult-to-chew foods.
Is a same-day implant more expensive?
The price difference compared to a conventional implant is minimal. However, temporary tooth costs may be additional. Check our pricing guide for details.
How long until I am fully healed?
Soft tissue healing takes 1-2 weeks, and bone-implant integration takes 2-3 months. After this period, the permanent tooth can be made.
I smoke. Can I get a same-day implant?
Smoking reduces the success rate. We recommend quitting at least 2 weeks beforehand. Read about the relationship between smoking and dental implants in detail.
