Q. Hi I am increaasingly concerned that I am going to be loosing some of my back teeth very soon. They have huge fillings that have been there since I was very young. I am currently in pain and waiting to see my dentist tomorrow. I don’t know how many more times my dentist..(who is excellent)..can save my teeth. I am considering implants should I lose any of my teeth and wanted to know if when I have my tooth extracted, could the implant be put straight in the root hole rather than waiting for my gum to heal then re-open it. Many Thanks
A. There are differing views as to implant immediate placement. My training recommends waiting for 6 weeks prior to implant placement.
