In case of missing tooth or an emergency, after careful assessment of patients, single or multiple dental implants can be done to restore back the smile on the same day. In case where a single implant is loaded, a temporary crown is fixed to be replaced later after complete healing of the site. With multiple implants loaded, the patient smile is restored with a temporary set of teeth or bridge. This has to be replaced after the region is completely healed, over a period of three to six month time.
