What is immediate loading?

Immediate loading in dentistry refers to the process where an implant is placed at the same time as the tooth extraction takes place and the patient receives a temporary denture within 48 hours. It is a very common misconception that the patient leaves with a permanent denture immediately the first time. This is not the case, the implant must ossify before the permanent denture is placed.immediate loading of dental implants

Can you immediately load an implant?

Yes. If adequate primary stabilization of the implant can be achieved, the implant can always be placed immediately.

When can you immediately load an implant?

The condition for placing an implant is adequate bone stock. The jawbone must be strong and dense enough to provide immediate stability for the implant. This means that it is firmly fixed and does not move excessively. After removing the lesions resulting from tooth extraction and inflammation, we use various treatments to ensure that adequate and sufficient bone remains. This ensures primary stabilisation of the implant.

Is dental bone grafting necessary for immediate loading?

Yes, dental bone grafting may be necessary. Our dentists assess the extent of existing bone loss in advance and decide individually in each case whether or not bone grafting is necessary. We will inform you about this when providing a quote.

What are the disadvantages of immediate loading?

Some disadvantages to consider:

Minimal risk of failure

Immediate loading puts immediate pressure on the implant, potentially disrupting the crucial process of osseointegration (where the implant fuses with the jawbone). This can in rare cases lead to implant failure.

Not suitable for all patients

Patients with poor bone quality or significant dental bone loss may not be suitable for implants. Certain medical conditions, such as uncontrolled diabetes or autoimmune diseases, can impair healing and increase the risk of complications with immediate loading. Smoking significantly inhibits healing and increases the risk of implant failure, making immediate loading a contraindication. Teeth grinding patients place excessive force on the implants, which can compromise ossification if they are immediately loaded.

Requires precise surgical technique

Immediate loading requires careful planning and precise surgical execution for optimal implant placement and stability. Not all dentists have the necessary expertise. Our doctors are highly qualified dentists with many years of experience.

Possibility of complications

Although rare, there is a slightly higher risk of infection in cases of immediate loading due to the dentures immediate placement. If the inflammatory factors occurring in the bone tissue cannot be completely removed inflammation also occurs around the implant. These cases are associated with the loss of the implant. This is often confused with the body seeing the implant as foreign “My bone did not hold the implant ̋. Separation always requires an inflammatory factor.

What are the indications for immediate implant loading?

The key indications for immediate implant loading:  

Adequate Bone Quality and Quantity

The jawbone must be strong and dense enough to provide primary stability for the implant. This allows it to withstand immediate loading forces. Patients with extensive bone loss might require bone grafting before implants, making them unsuitable for immediate loading.

Good Primary Stability

immediate loading implantsThe implant needs to achieve high stability during placement, measured by insertion torque. This indicates a strong initial connection between the implant and bone. Excessive movement of the implant after placement can hinder osseointegration (bone fusion) and make immediate loading risky.  

Ideal Implant Positio

The implant must be placed at the correct angle and depth to ensure optimal load distribution and prevent complications. In the aesthetic zone (front teeth), careful implant positioning is crucial for a natural-looking restoration.  

Patient Factors

Patients must be committed to maintaining excellent oral hygiene to minimise the risk of infection and ensure successful osseointegration. Smoking significantly impairs healing and can increase the risk of implant failure, making it a contraindication for immediate loading. Patients with uncontrolled diabetes or other systemic conditions that affect healing might not be suitable candidates.  

Prosthetic Considerations

When placing multiple implants, splinting them together can enhance stability and allow for immediate loading. Certain types of prostheses, like fixed bridges or full-arch restorations, are more suitable for immediate loading than single crowns.

What is the protocol for immediate load?

Consultation and Treatment Planning

Our dentist thoroughly examines your oral health, including your jawbone density and gum health, through clinical examination and X-rays (often including 3D imaging like a CT scan). Our dentist discusses your needs, expectations, and determines the appropriate number, size, and type of implants based on your individual needs.

Dental Implant Surgery

Local anesthesia is used to numb the area, and sometimes sedation is offered for patient comfort.  
The necessary tooth and inflammatory tissue are removed and the bone and soft tissues are prepared. The implants are surgically placed into the jawbone, following the treatment plan. More about dental implant surgery 

Immediate Loading

The temporary dentures are attached to the abutments, providing immediate function and aesthetics. Our dentist checks and adjusts your bite to ensure proper function and comfort.  

What is immediate loading all on four?

immediate loading all on fourImmediate loading all-on-four is a revolutionary dental implant technique that allows patients to receive a full set of fixed teeth placed on four implants. It’s a popular option for people who have lost most or all of their teeth and want a fast and effective solution to restore their smile and chewing function.

How successful is immediate implant loading?

According to the literature, there is no difference in the success rate of “traditional” implantation or immediate loading implantation in terms of the number of implants that may be lost. If immediate implantation is not found to be safe, an intervention to help the regeneration of bone tissue should always be performed at the same time as tooth extraction. (Alveolus preservation)

Which is better, immediate or delayed implant placement?

There is no better or worse. If possible, it is always worth implanting immediately or performing an intervention that promotes bone regeneration. It is also possible to implant in the place of a tooth that was extracted a long time ago, but you have to take into account the bone loss that has occurred so far.
