DENTAL IMPLANTS

Refer your patient below, don't worry if some details are missing.


Referral Protocol

Early placement (6-8 wks) after extraction works well for single rooted teeth. Refer 4 weeks after extraction.

Multi rooted teeth benefit from more healing. Refer 8-12 weeks after extraction for implant placement at 16-20 weeks.

Immediate implant placement is possible if there is no infection and the ginigiva has good aesthetics.

Its best to remove failed/infected teeth asap and temporised before referral.

Preliminary/other treatment may include disease stabilisation, extractions, temporistion and definitive restorations on other teeth.
