One-stage implantation
Immediate load implantation involves placing crowns or prostheses in one stage without waiting for the implants to heal. Recommended for single restorations and complete absence of teeth.
Single-stage implantation for single restorations is suitable for incisors and canines, which are visible when smiling. The crown serves more as a defect mask. Since the installed implant should not be subjected to excessive load, single-stage implantation is rarely suitable for molar teeth.
INDICATIONS FOR THE PROCEDURE
Conditions for single-stage immediate load implantation of a single tooth:
- sufficient jawbone and gum volume for reliable implant fixation;
- presence of adjacent teeth to distribute some of the load and prevent loosening;
- properly calculated crown size to reduce pressure on it.
For complete toothlessness, protocols such as All-on-4, All-on-6 are used. In this case, 4-6 implants are placed per jaw, which are combined into one system with a temporary prosthesis. The implants are securely fixed, therefore they do not loosen. Chewing with new teeth is necessary immediately to initiate cell nourishment and rapid bone tissue recovery.

ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES
Advantages of the single-stage immediate load implantation procedure:
01Atraumatic.
02Natural appearance of the dental row.
03No need for bone grafting.
04Speed.
Disadvantages of the single-stage immediate load implantation procedure:
01Risk of implant displacement under active chewing loads.
02Inability to enhance bone tissue due to the specifics of the operation.
03High requirements for the volume and quality of tissue.
