Immediate Implants

Precision, aesthetics, and continuity without the wait.

Traditionally, replacing a single missing tooth with a dental implant is a staged process. After a tooth is removed, we usually wait 3 to 4 months for healing before placing the implant, followed by further healing before a crown is attached.

In carefully selected cases, an immediate anterior implant allows us to remove the tooth, place the implant, and provide a fixed provisional tooth attached to the implant on the same day. This approach preserves aesthetics and confidence while maintaining continuity throughout treatment.

This option is not suitable for everyone and requires advanced planning, precision, and experience. When performed correctly, it offers an elegant solution for patients who value both appearance and efficiency without compromising long term outcomes.

What Makes Immediate Anterior Implants Different

An immediate anterior implant combines multiple procedures into one coordinated treatment, including:
Tooth extraction

Placement of bone substitutes or grafting where required
Implant placement
A custom provisional implant crown

Because these steps are combined into a single procedure, the treatment is more technical than a standard single implant. However, for the right patient, the benefits can be significant.

Benefits of Immediate Implants

1. No Time Without a Tooth

You leave with a fixed, natural looking temporary tooth on the same day. There is no visible gap and no removable appliance.

2. Improved Aesthetic Preservation

Immediate placement helps maintain gum contours and bone architecture, which is especially important in the front of the mouth.

3. Avoid Removable Temporary Teeth

Without this approach, patients often require a temporary denture or an Essix retainer with a false tooth. These can feel bulky, inconvenient, and are something many patients dislike removing and reinserting.

4. Streamlined Treatment Timeline

Multiple stages are combined into one carefully planned procedure, reducing overall treatment time and disruption.

5. Confidence During Healing

The provisional tooth allows you to smile, speak, and interact normally while healing occurs beneath the surface.

6. Highly Technical and Specialist Treatment

Immediate anterior implants require a high level of training and experience. This is not a routine procedure and should only be performed by clinicians with advanced expertise in implant and aesthetic dentistry.

The Immediate Implant Process

Following consultation and 3D digital planning, the tooth is gently removed and the implant placed immediately into the socket, with bone grafting material added where needed. A temporary crown is fitted the same day for appearance only — no chewing on it during the 3–4 month healing phase.

Once healed, accurate scans are sent to ceramic artisans to design the final crown. A try-in appointment allows review of shape, shade, and fit before any refinements are made. The final crown is then secured, and six-monthly reviews recommended for long-term maintenance.

What others are saying about us

I have just completed first stage of an implant, having my tooth extracted. Dr Namm was excellent and explained the whole process to me. There was absolutely no pain involved in extracting the tooth. It was just so good...I was really impressed as I have had extensive dental work in the past and it has always been extremely painful. The after-care is second to none. I honestly can't recommend Altura Dental highly enough.

Michelle Porter
From my initial consultation through to the completion of my treatment I have been so thankful I chose to come to SD Dental Clinic Cleveland. Melissa is such an amazing Dentist. She’s a perfectionist and listens to every little detail. The team are so lovely, friendly and caring. I absolutely LOVE my finished results. Thank you all so much.

Donna Smith
Everyone at SD dental are so lovely. You are always met with a smile at reception that makes your day. I had Christina whiten my teeth. She is very professional, and friendly. She makes sure your comfortable and does an amazing job.

Charlie Summers
I recently had major dental surgery at Altura Cleveland and can't praise, and thank, them enough for their amazing work, care and professionalism. Dr Shaiel, from the first meeting to the final fitting (about 8 visits over a few months) explained everything in layman's terms as to what each treatment would entail, the costs associated with each option and the best options for my final outcome, and the care and time taken to reach that goal was exceptional. I would highly recommend Dr Shaiel and his team.

Gary Napier
Altura is worth checking out for your dental needs. I came across their well-reviewed and recommended ad and decided to investigate. Dr Bryan is lovely and will work with you individually on achieving the results you’re after and genuinely wants success for you and your smile. Receptionists are friendly and make you feel very welcome too. At the start of my journey but I have been so happy with their service so far.

Nagua Soliman
This experience has been truly transformative. My dentist was exceptionally supportive, always available to address concerns, answer questions, make necessary adjustments, and provide reassurance that everything was progressing as expected. He ensured that my new teeth were perfectly suited for me.

Immediate Implants FAQ’s

Immediate anterior implants involve placing the implant on the same day as the tooth extraction, combined with bone grafting if needed and a natural-looking temporary crown — all in one appointment. The temporary crown is for appearance only; no biting or chewing on it for 3–4 months while the implant integrates.

Not everyone is suitable — bone quality, gum health, and bite forces are all assessed. When performed by an experienced clinician in the right case, success rates match standard implants. Without immediate placement, patients typically wait several months wearing a removable temporary appliance.
