In implant treatment, after the implant is placed in the patient's jawbone, the implant is tightly bonded to the jawbone, called the osteointegration process. This process may take 2 months in the lower jaw and 3 months in the upper jaw. Generally, patients do not have implant crowns during this process. Immediate loading is the situation in which the upper structure, that is, the prosthetic part, is applied to the patient on the same day or afterwards, after the implant surgery, without waiting for this process.
Can it be done on every patient?
In order for immediate loading to be performed, the primary part of the implant is placed in the jawbone. Its stability must be very good. In other words, when the superstructure arrives, the physician must believe that it is resistant to the forces to come. There are certain tests used by the doctor for this. And for implants that give that confidence, the top coating can be done on the same day without waiting.
In what cases can it not be done?
If the patient needed support with grafts called bone powder during implant surgery, Sinus lifting and implant loading operations cannot be performed in patients with sagging sinuses if they are performed in the same session and there is no adequate response in the jaw bone resonance test.
People with systemic diseases and patients with parafunctional habits such as bruxism pose a risk for immediate loading.
Will there be eating problems afterwards?
Patients who are socially or functionally concerned about the toothless period after the implant will have a break in their eating by providing immediate dentition after the operation. It can eliminate such a situation as giving. It also provides psychological support to patients who do not want to go toothless.
How many sessions does it take?
Both the implant and the superstructure coating are delivered to the person in a single session. Thus, there will be no long waiting periods. However, since this cannot be done for every patient, it is beneficial to undergo a professional examination and make the right decision.
