Can Dental Implants Be Fitted on Same Day My Tooth Is Extracted?

    In some cases, dental implants can be fitted immediately after your tooth is removed, but many factors must be taken into consideration before the procedure is performed for the sake of your safety. Namely, our dentists need to assess the number of implants you require and the health of your jaw bone.

    If we can fit the implants on the same day as your tooth is removed, it’s important that you take care to keep them in good condition to prevent complications from arising. We highly recommend sticking to soft food for the first few months to avoid causing damage to your dental implant in Thailand. If you choose us to perform the procedure, we’ll carry out a risk evaluation before administering the treatment.

The entire process can be completed within minutes, and before long, you won’t even notice that you have dental implants.
