Most people who ask about immediate implants have one worry on their mind. "Will I have to go to work, or a wedding, or a meeting, with a missing tooth?" If the tooth is in the front, that worry is even bigger. Nobody wants to smile with a gap for three or four months while the implant heals.
That is exactly what an immediate implant solves. In suitable cases, the damaged tooth is removed, the implant is placed in the same sitting, and a fixed temporary tooth is attached within 24 hours. You walk out with a complete smile, not a gap.
At Designer Smiles in Vile Parle East, Dr. Kavita Bhat Kumar will tell you honestly whether your case suits a tooth in 24 hours. Not everyone qualifies, and a good clinic should say so clearly rather than promise the same result to every patient.
01 / Overview
What is an immediate dental implant?
An immediate dental implant is an implant that is placed on the same day the damaged tooth is removed. In many cases, a temporary tooth is also fixed on the implant within 24 hours. That is why it is commonly called "tooth in 24 hours", "same day implants", or "teeth in a day".
In a regular implant treatment, the tooth is removed first, the socket is left to heal for 2 to 3 months, and only then is the implant placed. After that, there is another wait before the crown goes on. An immediate implant skips that first waiting period. The implant goes straight into the fresh socket, which saves time and also saves you one extra surgical visit.
There are two terms you may hear during your consultation:
Immediate placement means the implant is placed right after the tooth is removed.
Immediate loading means a temporary tooth is attached to the implant within a day or two.
Many patients get both together. Some patients get immediate placement but wait a few weeks for the tooth, if the bone needs a little more time. Your plan will depend on your bone, your gums, and how firmly the implant sits on the day.
02 / Signs
Who is a good candidate for an immediate implant?
You may be suitable for a tooth in 24 hours if some of these apply to you. A short consultation with a scan is the only reliable way to confirm.
- You have a broken, cracked, or badly decayed tooth that cannot be saved with a root canal or crown.
- A front tooth needs to be removed and you do not want to be seen with a gap, even for a few days.
- Your root canal treated tooth has failed or split.
- You have enough healthy bone around the tooth for the implant to sit firmly.
- There is no active pus infection or severe gum disease around the tooth.
- You are in good general health, and any diabetes or blood pressure is under control.
- You are coming from outside Mumbai or abroad, and want to reduce the number of trips.
If your bone is thin, the infection is heavy, or the gums are not healthy, a two-stage implant may be the safer choice. That is not a lesser treatment, it is simply the right one for that case.
03 / Benefits
Benefits of immediate implants at Designer Smiles.
- 01No gap in your smile. You leave with a fixed temporary tooth, not a missing one.
- 02Fewer surgeries. Tooth removal and implant placement happen in one sitting instead of two.
- 03Shorter overall treatment time. You skip the 2 to 3 month wait for the socket to heal before the implant.
- 04Better gum shape in the front. Placing the implant right away helps support the gum and bone, which is important for a natural looking front tooth.
- 05Less bone loss. Bone starts shrinking soon after a tooth is removed. An implant placed early helps hold that bone in place.
- 06Good for busy people and NRIs. Fewer visits and less downtime, which makes planning around work or travel much easier.
05 / Your Visit
What an immediate implant appointment actually feels like.
Most people expect tooth removal and an implant on the same day to be a big, painful ordeal. In reality, the whole procedure is done under local anaesthesia, so the area is completely numb. You are awake, you can talk to the team, and every step is explained before it happens.
It happens in a private operatory, with relaxing music in the background. And when the appointment is over, you get the same thing every Designer Smiles patient talks about: a warm towel, a short neck and face massage, and a calm exit instead of being rushed out of the chair. After a longer procedure like this, patients say that part really makes a difference.
06 / Recovery
Recovery and aftercare after an immediate implant.
Some mild swelling or soreness for 2 to 3 days is normal. It is easily managed with the medicines and instructions you will be given. Most people are back at work the next day.
The most important part of recovery is how you use the temporary tooth. For the first 6 to 8 weeks:
- Eat soft foods on that side. Avoid biting into hard things like nuts, bones, or chikki with the new tooth.
- Do not bite directly into an apple or a hard roti with a front implant tooth.
- Keep the area clean with gentle brushing and the mouthwash you are given.
- Avoid smoking, as it slows healing and increases the risk of implant failure.
- Come for your follow-up visits on time, so the implant can be checked as it heals.
Once the implant has fully bonded with the bone, the final crown goes on and you can chew normally.
04 / Our Process
How the tooth in 24 hours process works.
- Step 01
Consultation and Digital Imaging
Dr. Kavita checks the tooth, the gums, and your bite, and uses digital imaging to study the bone around the root. This is where the most important decision is made: whether your case is safe for an immediate implant or needs a different plan.
- Step 02
Treatment Planning
The implant size, position, and angle are planned in advance. The shade and shape of your temporary tooth are also decided, so it matches your other teeth from day one.
- Step 03
Gentle Tooth Removal
The damaged tooth is removed under local anaesthesia, carefully, so the surrounding bone and gum are protected as much as possible. This matters because that same bone is going to hold your implant.
- Step 04
Implant Placement
The implant is placed into the fresh socket in the same sitting. The team checks how firmly it sits. Good initial stability is what decides whether a tooth can be fixed on it straight away.
- Step 05
Temporary Tooth Within 24 Hours
If the implant is firm, a fixed temporary tooth is attached, usually the same day or the next day. It is shaped so it stays slightly out of heavy biting contact while the implant heals.
- Step 06
Healing Period
Over the next 3 to 4 months, the implant bonds with your jawbone. You eat soft food on that side and follow simple care instructions.
- Step 07
Final Crown
Once healing is complete, the temporary tooth is replaced with a precision zirconia crown, matched to the colour and shape of your natural teeth.

Coming to Mumbai for an immediate implant?
Immediate implants are one of the most practical options for NRI and out-of-town patients, since they cut down one full healing stage. In most cases, the first trip covers the consultation, tooth removal, implant, and temporary tooth. A second trip, about 3 to 4 months later, covers the final crown.
