Can I Get An Extraction and an Implant at the Same Time?

In this video, Dr. Rose Magno explains how same-day implants after extractions save time and reduce procedures. Visit our Emeryville office to learn if this streamlined approach is right for you.

In cases where infections are present, placing an implant can be more challenging because the bone may be too soft to support it. The success of the implant depends on the strength and quality of the bone. During the evaluation, we carefully determine the optimal placement for the implant to ensure it engages healthy, strong bone.

If you are having a tooth extracted and the bone is suitable, we can often place the implant immediately after removing the tooth. This process involves placing a bone graft if needed to enhance the site and provide additional support for the implant. Using the appropriate type of bone graft is critical to ensuring stability and promoting proper healing. When the conditions are right, the implant can be placed the same day, streamlining the process and minimizing the time needed for restoration.

This approach allows for a more efficient procedure and quicker recovery, ensuring that your dental restoration is both functional and durable.
