What Does “Same-Day Implant” Mean?

Traditionally, dental implants were placed in stages: first the implant post, then a healing period of 3–6 months before the crown.
With same-day implants, your dentist places both the titanium post and a temporary restoration during a single appointment. You leave the office with a complete smile—no gaps, no waiting.

At Foreon, this is made possible by advanced digital planning, 3D imaging, and CEREC CAD/CAM technology, which allows our team to design and mill precise restorations in-office.

⚙️ How It Works

1. Digital Assessment & Planning – Using digital X-rays and 3D scans, your dentist maps the bone structure and designs the exact position for the implant.
   
   

2. Implant Placement – The titanium implant is gently inserted into the jawbone.
   
   

3. Temporary Crown – A custom temporary tooth is attached immediately, allowing you to smile and speak confidently while your bone heals around the implant.
   
   

4. Final Restoration – After 3–6 months of healing, your permanent crown—crafted for perfect aesthetics and bite—is secured.
   
   

👩🏽‍⚕️ Who Qualifies for a Same-Day Implant?

Not everyone is an ideal candidate. Successful immediate placement depends on:

• Bone density and volume – Sufficient bone support is essential for initial implant stability.
  
  

• Healthy gums – Active gum disease must be treated first.
  
  

• Good overall health – Non-smokers and patients without uncontrolled medical conditions (like diabetes) tend to heal faster.
  
  

At Foreon Dental Implant Studio, your eligibility is determined through comprehensive digital imaging and a personalized consultation with Dr. Kwon, Dr. Son, or Dr. Hahm.

🕐 The Benefits of Same-Day Implants

• Instant confidence – No living with a missing tooth.
  
  

• Fewer appointments – Streamlined care and faster results.
  
  

• Less bone loss – Immediate placement can help preserve bone tissue.
  
  

• Digital precision – CEREC and 3D planning ensure accuracy and long-term success.
  
  

⚠️ What to Keep in Mind

Even though the crown is placed immediately, your implant still needs time to osseointegrate—that is, bond naturally with the bone. The temporary crown is designed to protect the implant during this phase, not to handle heavy chewing. Your dentist will guide you through gentle care routines to ensure optimal healing.
