Spanish It takes about 365.25 days for the Earth to make a full orbit around the Sun. To form a new habit, it takes an average of 66 days. But how long does it take to place dental implants? At Brent Bradford, DDS, Dr. Bradford needs only one day to restore your smile! Using innovative mini dental implants, he places the implant and secures a temporary restoration in just one appointment. However, to get same-day implants, you must have enough jawbone to support their titanium structure. Fortunately, mini implants feature a unique design that stabilizes even in minimal bone! Book a free implant consultation today at Brent Bradford, DDS, in Syracuse, NY, to discover if you’re eligible for same-day dental implants to replace your missing teeth.
How Do Same-Day Teeth Dental Implants Work?
Dental implants are titanium screws that Dr. Bradford anchors into jawbones to replace missing teeth. Due to their titanium structure, these implants are bio-compatible, meaning they interact well with living bone. Once in your jaw, dental implants will integrate with your bone over time, forming a remarkably strong connection that rivals the strength of your natural teeth!
However, conventional dental implants are relatively large and require a substantial amount of bone structure for support. This leaves many patients ineligible for implant treatment, as they lack the necessary jawbone mass and volume.
Fortunately, mini dental implants are much smaller and can stabilize even in minimal bone! These slim titanium posts are nearly half the size of conventional implants, yet they achieve a similar success rate. Rather than requiring additional procedures to rebuild lost bone material, mini implants typically allow patients to restore their smile without the hassle.
Additionally, conventional implants typically require multiple placement appointments between periods of healing. This long and arduous process is due to their multi-piece design, which requires separate appointments for each component. In contrast, mini implants feature a unique one-piece design that allows Dr. Bradford to place them in a single visit!
With fewer appointments, fewer components, and fewer additional procedures necessary, mini dental implants save patients like you both time and money.
The Same-Day Implant Process To Replace Missing Teeth
At Brent Bradford, DDS, Dr. Bradford begins implant procedures with a free consultation.
During this appointment, he will perform a thorough examination of your smile and take 3D digital X-rays to assess the quality of your jawbone. If you have enough bone to support a mini dental implant (which most patients do), you may be eligible for same-day teeth replacement! Before leaving your consultation, Dr. Bradford will create a custom treatment plan tailored to your specific needs and schedule your placement appointment.
At your procedure visit, Dr. Bradford will use a local anesthetic to keep you comfortable. Once you’re numb, he’ll create a small pilot hole in your gums and jawbone to create a tiny opening for the implant. Then, after gently screwing the titanium post into your jaw, he can secure your temporary restoration to help maintain the aesthetics of your smile.
In most cases, these small titanium posts will need around 21 days to become stable enough to support a final crown or dental bridge. However, for implant dentures, Dr. Bradford waits until your restoration arrives before he places your implants. Then, with your mini implants in place, he secures your final denture the same day!
Same-day implant placement to replace your missing teeth provides numerous benefits for patients to enjoy.
Without the need for multiple appointments and surgeries, patients save a lot of time and generally require less healing. Additionally, same-day dental implants are typically less expensive, offering cost-effective benefits that conventional dental implants can’t provide.
