Can a person get a dental implant immediately?!


Question: Can a person get a dental implant immediately.?
In "sex and the city" this girl falls and her front tooth falls out with lots of blood, a few days later, she looks like she had a dental implant to replace the tooth that fell out. Is this done in real life, if you have this type of emergency.? I thought it took months to get an implant done.Health Question & Answer


Answers:
There are several things that can be done in a case like this. The tooth itself can be saved if it came out whole and in good condition. As far as implants being placed and healed... its going to take more than a few days, but the procedure is getting more advanced. There are now systems that allow you to place the post(the metal that mimics the root and integrates into the bone) and the permanent crown on the same visit. Health Question & Answer

that's why its tv....
in real life it takes a few months for the bone to heal and integrate with the implant.
