Potential Complications
While these implants are an attractive option for those seeking a quick solution for missing teeth, they also come with certain complications that patients should be aware of. In this article, we’ll explore the potential complications associated with same-day dental implant procedures.
- Infection
Like any surgical procedure, there is a risk of infection with same-day dental implants. While your dentist will take every precaution to minimize this risk, it is essential to follow post-operative care instructions to keep the implant site clean and free from bacteria.
- Implant Failure
Same-day dental implants have a slightly higher risk of failure compared to traditional dental implants. This is primarily due to the fact that the implant is immediately loaded with a permanent tooth, which can cause additional stress on the implant and surrounding bone. This stress may lead to a lack of proper osseointegration or even implant failure.
- Insufficient Bone Density
For a dental implant to be successful, a patient must have enough bone density to support the implant. In some cases, same-day dental implants may be placed without adequate bone support, leading to complications such as implant failure or shifting of the implant.
- Nerve Damage
Nerve damage can occur during any dental implant procedure, but the risk may be slightly higher with same-day implants. This is because the implant placement and tooth restoration are completed in a single session, which can increase the chances of accidentally damaging nerves in the jaw.
- Overloading
One of the main concerns with same-day dental implants is the potential for overloading the implant. This occurs when too much force is applied to the implant too soon, which can lead to implant failure. Patients should avoid chewing hard foods and follow their dentist’s recommendations to prevent overloading.
- Aesthetic Issues
Since the prosthetic tooth is placed on the same day as the implant, there may be less time to fine-tune the aesthetics of the new tooth. As a result, the final appearance may not be as natural-looking as with traditional dental implants.
