When you see the incredible results that they can produce and what they can do for your smile, it\u2019s easy to start thinking about how your life would be different with a brand new tooth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s why, if you have a tooth extraction coming up, you might find yourself wondering how quickly afterward you could expect to get your dental implant. The answer may depend; here\u2019s what you should know.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When Can I Get my Dental Implant?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The amount of time that you\u2019ll need to wait before you can get your dental implant depends from person to person, with the main determining factor being the state of your oral health. If your teeth, gums, and jaw are in poor condition it may be necessary to complete some preliminary procedures before you get your implants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Typically, there are three approaches your dentist might take: immediate, early, and delayed implant placement. Here\u2019s what you should know about each of these options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Immediate Implant Placement<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Patients with absolutely sterling oral health may be able to get their dental implants immediately after having their tooth extracted. This allows you to get your dental implant quickly and to avoid any unnecessary bone loss. However, this is typically only possible if you lost or broke a tooth due to a sudden accident.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Early Implant Placement<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cEarly\u201d implant placement generally takes place two to three months after having your tooth extracted. This is usually done if you have damage to your gum line or an outstanding infection that needs to heal before the implants can be placed. However, the longer that you\u2019re missing a tooth the more likely it is that your bone reabsorbs and shrinks. For that reason, most dentists will try to complete the placement of the dental implants before the three month mark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Delayed Implant Placement<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019ve been missing a tooth for a while, or if you are suffering from severe gum disease, it may be that your jaw isn\u2019t sufficiently strong to hold an implant. In that case, you\u2019ll ned a bone graft before you get your implant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You will typically need to wait three to six months after this procedure is complete to heal completely before you get your implant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About Our Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At Baltimore Dental Arts, we understand that every single patients that we see is completely different.
