Dear Sir/Madam!
Last Wednesday all the teeth in my upper jaw were extracted. I am now thinking about implants, at least four, and I would have them done with you. I would like to know how long after the extractions such procedures can be performed, when it would make sense to come for an examination and consultation, and whether I need a panoramic X-ray.
Tomorrow the sutures will be removed and an impression taken for a temporary “flipper” denture. I would like to know whether this makes sense if we could perhaps begin with the implants soon, and whether this denture can also be used temporarily on them.
Thank you for your answer.

Dear Sir/Madam!

Implant treatment can begin relatively soon after the removal of your teeth. If the teeth were very mobile and the extraction sites are not severely affected, implants can be placed only a few days after the procedure. In the case of periapical processes beneath the extracted teeth, however, this period may be extended to as much as two months. We assess whether the bone is suitable for the procedure with a clinical examination and review of an X-ray (this can be done as soon as possible). It certainly makes sense to have an examination and X-ray (you can have both done with us).
Throughout the osseointegration period you are provided with a temporary denture (in the lower jaw approx. 4 months).

Have a nice day!
