Understanding Immediate Implants
Extraction and implant in the same appointment
With a traditional implant, the tooth is extracted, you wait 3 to 6 months for the site to heal, and then a second surgery places the implant. Immediate implants skip the waiting period entirely.
The failing tooth is removed and the implant is placed directly into the fresh socket during the same visit. A temporary crown is fitted on top so you never walk out with a gap. The implant heals and integrates with your jawbone while you go about your normal life.
Fewer surgeries, less total healing time, and you keep your smile intact from day one.
Key facts
Are You a Candidate?
Not every extraction qualifies, but many do
The 3D scan at your free consultation tells us whether immediate placement is possible for your specific tooth. If it is not, we will explain the traditional route and why it gives you a better result.
Immediate implants may be right if
- You have a tooth that needs extraction and want to avoid months with a gap
- You have adequate bone volume at the extraction site (confirmed by 3D scan)
- The tooth being removed is not surrounded by active infection
- You are in good general health and your gums are healthy
- You want to minimize the number of surgeries and total recovery time
A traditional approach may be better if
- The extraction site has significant infection that needs to heal first
- There is substantial bone loss requiring grafting before implant placement
- Multiple adjacent teeth need extraction and complex reconstruction
- You have uncontrolled gum disease that needs treatment first
- The bone quality or shape does not support immediate placement
Why Choose Immediate Implants
Six reasons to place the implant the same day
One surgery instead of two
The extraction and the implant placement happen in the same appointment, so you recover once instead of twice.
No gap in your smile
A temporary crown is placed the same day, so you walk out of the office with a complete smile. No one has to know.
Preserves bone immediately
Placing the implant into the fresh socket stimulates the bone right away, preventing the shrinkage that starts as soon as a tooth is removed.
Less total healing time
Because the bone never has to heal from a bare extraction first, the overall timeline from start to final crown is significantly shorter.
Fewer office visits
With the extraction and placement combined, you need fewer appointments overall, saving you time away from work and your daily routine.
Same lifetime results
Immediate implants achieve the same long-term success rates as traditional implants when placed in appropriate candidates. The result is equally permanent.
Immediate vs. Alternatives
How immediate implants compare
A traditional implant is the proven two-stage route and remains the right choice when conditions require it. A bridge avoids surgery entirely but sacrifices healthy teeth. When the extraction site is suitable, an immediate implant gives you the best of both: a permanent result with no gap and less total healing.
The Process
From failing tooth to permanent implant
Here is exactly what happens when you choose an immediate implant at Peterborough Family Dental.
Consultation and 3D Planning
We take a 3D CBCT scan to assess the tooth, the bone, and the surrounding structures. If immediate placement is possible, we plan the exact implant position digitally before you are in the chair. You leave with a clear plan and an itemized quote.

Cost & Insurance
One procedure can mean lower overall costs
Because an immediate implant combines the extraction and placement into a single surgery, the total cost is often less than having two separate procedures. You also save on time off work and additional appointments.
Many dental insurance plans cover both the extraction and a portion of the implant. We verify your benefits before your appointment and give you a fully itemized quote so there are no surprises.
