Can an implant be placed immediately after an extraction

Q. Can an implant be placed immediately after an extraction?

A. It is possible to have a implant placed immediately after extraction, but not in every case. The tooth would have to be infection free and the bone and gum levels would need to be satifactory. I recommend you book in for an assessment with an implantologist to investigate whether this would be an option for you.
