Possibly: It depends on so many factors, including your occlusion, the hardness of your bone, and the treatment plan of your dentist. Consult with the person who will be treating you as to what would work best in your mouth.

Depends: Most often, i will plan to do this. This allows us to better preserve the gum tissue between the teeth for a more optimal esthetic result. If the stability of the implant is not sufficient at the time of placement, then you may not be able to do this. If a tooth is not presently there, the likelihood of this being done is greater. Good luck.

Temporarily: A temporary crown can be placed to guide the soft tissue in place. After the healing process has completed, a permanent crown can be fabricated. The aesthetic of the anterior tooth must be handled delicately. I do not advise a permanent crown until the soft tissue has healed completely. Sometimes loading an implant with even a temporary crown is not possible depending on the case in hand.

Yes: If the bone was good , you can get an immedite abutment and temporary tooth. After three months a porcelain tooth will be made as the final restoration.

Yes but will redo: The immediate placed porcelain crown should have a proper width, emergence profile, and cleanable characteristic for the optimal healing of soft tissue. Secondly, contact on the implant tooth is removed to ensure minimal to no micromovement on the implant. I usually placed an in office made cerec crown, then came back 6 month later, retorque at 35ncm and place a lab made crown.

Often : A temorary crown is often placed at the time of a front tooth implant to help with contouring the gum tissue. If the implant does not have good stability then a crown should not be placed because the implant can fail and cause more tissue destruction. In this case a temporary "flipper" or essix appliance can be made which is removable.

Depends: Depends upon how stable the implant is. The more torque needed to put the dentl implant in the better your chances. If you can not get an immediate crown then ask for a temporary mryland splint and not a flipper.

Depends: It depends on how dense the bone is when the dental implant is placed. If the bone is solid/dense and the dental implant is in good position, a temporary crown can be placed. However, you will not be able to chew on the dental implant until after 2 months. Contact your dentist on your options.

Possible: Possible but not recommended. Normally is is better to wait for the permanent crown till the gums are healed and bone solid around implant. This will assure the success of implant and crown attached both functionally and esthetically. Look good, bite good. The dentist will have a temporary appliance or tooth in the space until this heals. Be patient.

Maybe: Regardless of whether the tooth is extracted at the same time as implant placement, after the implant is placed, there is a way to measure its stability with the osstell device, a resonance frequency measurement, of the implant stability quotient... It the implant meets proper stability requirements, then an abutment and temporary crown may be placed.. Be advised that this does not always happen.

Many times, yes: If the implant is able to be placed securely, and your bite is favorable, a temporary implant crown can be placed immediately the day of surgery. If not, your surgeon should have an essex appliance or some type of removable appliance to insert in the event that this is not possible. Keep smiling !

Possibly: Depends on your specific case and the dentist. If a crown is placed, it will most likely be a temporary crown.
