In addition, for certain cases, permanent or temporary prosthetics may be loaded immediately during the same treatment visit when the dental implants are surgical placed. This is know as immediate loaded implants. The immediate loading of dental implants shortens the treatment time and makes it possible to give the patient an esthetic appearance during the whole treatment period. New prefabricated components such as ITI Straumann's implant system as well as Nobel Biocare's Branemark, Replace Select Straight, Replace Select Tapered Dental, Nobel Direct, Nobel Prefect Implant System now enables shorter treatment time. These prefabricated components are made to fit practically all types of mandible and enables adjustments to be made in meeting individual esthetic and functional needs.

• Immediately functioning of teeth
• Good esthetic results
• Shorter treatment time with minimized pain

The treatment procedure and steps for immediate loaded implants are the same as that for conventional implants, the main difference being that the temporary crown or bridge is loaded onto the implants - immediately after its surgical placement.
• First evaluation and x-ray to determine implant site and bone condition
• Implant site preparation
• Placing the implant and installing the temporary crowns or bridges
• Placing the permanent crown or bridge

Below is a list of some of the inclusion/ exclusion criteria for immediate implants and immediate loaded implants. This list is non-exhausive and its feasibility is also dependent on the judgement of your implantologist on an individualized case basis.
1.If your tooth has a fracture or is decayed and that needs to be extracted, a dental implant may be placed at the    time of the tooth extraction. However, if your fractured or decayed tooth is infected, immediate dental implant    placement is not advisable. There should be no apical disorder or inflammation at the area of the implant site.
2.Good bone quality and quantity is a must for immediate implants to be successful, thus immediate implants    and immediate loaded may not be applicable to all cases. Different bone volume and density and preparation    techniques will influence the level of stability.
3.The patient should not have any major medical complication, should be healthy and compliant with good oral    hygiene.
4.Other criteria’s include having good gingival/ periodontal or periapical status of adjacent teeth as well as    favourable and stable occlusal relationship.

As with any procedure, it is always important to consult with your dental specialists on whether a particular treatment such as immediate implant and immediate loaded implants are suitable for you.
