Same-Day Immediate Dental Implants in Riverside, CA
Same-day immediate dental implants allow qualified patients to have a failing tooth removed, an implant placed, and a temporary tooth attached all in one visit. Instead of waiting months with a gap in your smile, you leave Riverside Tooth Co. with a natural-looking tooth the same day. Dr. Sandhu offers immediate implants for patients in Riverside, CA who want a faster path to a complete, confident smile.
Request an AppointmentHow Same-Day Implants Work
After a thorough exam and imaging, Dr. Sandhu confirms that you have enough healthy bone to support an implant right away. On the day of treatment, any damaged tooth is gently removed with an extraction, and the implant is placed into the socket. A temporary crown, bridge, or denture is attached so you can smile and speak normally while the implant heals. After several months, once the implant has fused with the bone, your permanent restoration is placed.
Benefits of Same-Day Implants
- Leave with a tooth the same day, with no visible gap
- Fewer surgical visits and a shorter overall treatment time
- Helps preserve bone and gum tissue at the extraction site
- Faster return to normal eating and speaking
- Can be used for single teeth or full arches
Who Is a Candidate?
Immediate implants work best for patients with healthy gums, enough bone density at the implant site, and no active infection. Patients with advanced gum disease, significant bone loss, or certain health conditions may need treatment such as scaling and root planing or bone grafting first. If immediate placement is not right for you, traditional single or multiple dental implants still provide excellent results.
Full-Arch Same-Day Implants
For patients missing most or all of their teeth, a full arch of replacement teeth can be supported by several implants placed in a single visit. A temporary arch is attached the same day, allowing you to smile and eat soft foods right away while your implants heal. Learn more on our dental implants and dentures pages.
Request an AppointmentSame-Day Implant FAQs
Can I really get a tooth the same day?
Yes, if you are a good candidate. You will leave with a temporary tooth attached to the implant, followed by a permanent restoration after healing.
Are same-day implants as strong as traditional implants?
When placed in healthy bone, immediate implants have success rates comparable to traditional implants. You will need to follow a soft diet during healing.
What if my tooth has an infection?
An active infection may need to be treated before an implant can be placed. Dr. Sandhu will recommend the safest timeline for you.
Can same-day implants replace a full arch?
Yes. Full-arch immediate implants can support a temporary set of teeth on the same day, with a permanent arch placed after healing.
Is the procedure comfortable?
The procedure is performed under local anesthetic, and sedation dentistry is available for added comfort.
How long until I get my permanent tooth?
Most patients receive their permanent restoration three to six months after implant placement.
