The implant is placed in the fresh wound immediately after removal of a tooth. This is referred to as immediate implant placement (not to be confused with immediateloading of implants).
What exactly does immediate loading“ mean and does it apply to me?
The usual plan for implant-borne teeth includes an healing phase with no loading on the implants after they have been inserted. In this procedure the gap is temporarily closed with a classical temporary denture, which is
normally attached to the neighboring teeth. However, in immediate loading new implant systems and methods are used that under specifi c conditions allow the denture or the temporary denture to be attached to the implants
immediately. Patients receive their implant and have fi xed, naturallooking teeth on the same day. Whether immediate loading is suitable for you will depend on the state of the jawbone and the position of the implants. Ask your dentist about the options
What are implants made of?
Friadent implants are pure surgical-grade titanium. The material has proven to be so good that now 99 percent of all dental implant systems are made of pure titanium. It is extremely stable and is very compatible to
the body. Titanium also becomes firmly integrated into the bone tissue. These positive properties have been confi rmed not only in implant dentistry but also in many other medical areas, such prosthetic joints, for many decades. The silvery-gray color of titanium is also not a disadvantage, because implants like natural tooth
roots are completely buried in the jawbone and are invisible. White implants of ceramic have also been available for some years. The first generations of aluminum oxide ceramic were not strong enough to present
serious competition for titanium. Current ceramic implants are now made of extremely stable zirconium
oxide ceramic and are still in the testing phase. Titanium is still the gold standard of implant materials.
