Instant implants, or immediate load dental implants are designed specially to be able to be loaded right after implantation. This means no healing time, once the dental implant is inserted, it can be used to bite and chew immediately after the anesthetic has worn off. This of course raises many questions in patient’s minds; what is that structural difference that makes this possible? Is it worth it? Are there any consequences? With this article, I aim to explain a little bit about how these implants work, and how they are different from regular dental implants.

Dental implants come in many shapes and sizes, and each dental implant has unique capabilities and attributes. Today, I wish to speak a little on a relatively recent development, which are instant implants. These dental implants are also called immediate load dental implants, and as their name implies, you do not need a healing time, but instead, can get them inserted, and then immediately start to use them for eating and biting, of course only once the anaesthetic wears off, or else you risk biting into your own mouth or tongue.
