Getting your Same Day or Immediate Load Dental Implants done in Costa Rica can be an ideal way to get the sparkle back in your smile. Costa Rica has always been a well-known and affordable medical and dental tourism destination.

Same day dental implants are more advantageous for you than their traditional counterparts. Here's how:

Same Day/Immediate Load Dental Implants Vs. Traditional Implants Same Day/Immediate Load Dental Implants are: Fast and easy: The dentist inserts a titanium post and then a temporary tooth/crown over it. The entire thing is done in not more than 15 to 20 minutes. Osseo integration is quick and in 30 days, the permanent crown is put in place. The Immediate Load Dental implant can be set at an angle, if need be, and removes the need for bone grafting.

Traditional implants are: Slow and fussy: Traditional implants consists of the following steps: 1.First surgery: The dentist exposes the jaw bone and inserts a 4mm titanium post. You have to wait for 2 to 6 months until the bone grows around the post. 2.Second surgery: the tip of the post is exposed and crown attached. If a bone graft is needed, another surgery is done to insert the titanium post adding another 4 to 8 months of healing time. This is very common as traditional implants can only be inserted vertically.

Same Day/Immediate Load Dental Implants Vs. Dentures The Dental Implants look and feel geniune: Since dental implants integrate into the structure of your bone, they prevent bone loss and gum recession that are common with bridgework and dentures.

Dentures look and feel artificial: Even if you can sometimes fool people with dentures, they definitely don't feel like your own teeth.

Same Day/Immediate Load Implants Vs. Bridging

Same Day/Immediate Load Implants preserve teeth: Dental implants do not require that the adjacent teeth be changed in any way. Hence, your healthy teeth are left intact, which is an important long-term oral health benefit. Bridging affects adjacent teeth: In bridgework, some cutting of the adjacent teeth may be required.

Although dental implants are in many ways a better option than dental bridges, it is better if you consult your doctor before making the decision. And if he/she says dental implants may not suit you, you can then consider dental bridges that cost an affordable $400 for a full set.
