Quick Summary

An Immediate Dental Implant is placed directly into the socket on the same day a tooth is extracted. Performed by periodontist Dr. Dilip Khambete MDS in Satara, this advanced technique saves 3 to 4 months of waiting time, eliminates a second surgical procedure, and preserves natural gum contours around front teeth.

Combining Extraction and Implant Placement

In traditional implant dentistry, a failing tooth is extracted, followed by 3 to 4 months of socket healing before an implant post is surgically placed. During those waiting months, the surrounding bone ridge loses width and height, and natural gum papillae collapse.

With Immediate Post-Extraction Placement, gentle atraumatic tooth removal is immediately followed by inserting a micro-textured titanium implant into the socket space. Any small gap between the socket wall and implant is backfilled with bio-compatible bone graft mineral.

Why Choose Immediate Implants?

  • Single Surgery: Extraction and implant placement done under a single local anesthetic.
  • Saves 3-4 Months: Bone healing and osseointegration occur simultaneously.
  • Preserves Gum Scallops: Ideal for front teeth where natural gum tissue shape is critical.

Frequently Asked Questions

An immediate dental implant is placed into the extraction socket immediately following gentle removal of a damaged or non-restorable tooth during the exact same appointment.

It requires only one surgical session instead of two, cuts overall treatment time by 3 to 4 months, prevents socket bone collapse, and preserves the natural pink gum scallops surrounding front teeth.

Eligibility requires adequate apical bone beyond the socket to anchor the implant firmly and the absence of severe acute active infection around the extracted tooth root.
