At Central Park Oral Surgery, we offer emergency dental implants in New York City for patients who have had a tooth knocked out or severely damaged, beyond the point of saving the tooth. When teeth are lost and not replaced, patients are at risk of jawbone density loss that can lead to facial deformities and difficulty performing everyday tasks. Unlike routine dental implant procedures, during emergency dental implant surgery, the implant is placed immediately after the tooth has been extracted or knocked loose from the jawbone. Our oral surgeons have extensive experience placing dental implants in emergency situations and providing patients with a quick and long-lasting solution to lost teeth.

When teeth are lost and not replaced, patients can experience changes to their speech, facial structure, and functionality of the mouth and jaw. Trauma to a tooth can also damage the tissue surrounding the tooth, which must be treated promptly to avoid further complications from arising. By replacing the tooth quickly, patients can prevent against bone density loss. Emergency dental implant surgery is also ideal for patients who are experiencing issues caused by a previously placed dental implant. By correcting the issue quickly, the risk of infection and implant rejection is lessened.

Patients who wait to receive or repair their dental implant are at a higher risk of many complications. Failing dental implants can lead to several serious consequences, such as bone density loss gum disease, and more. When teeth are lost or removed from the jawbone, they leave a gap behind. Over time, the jawbone will continue to deteriorate and lead to jawbone density loss. Jawbone density loss makes the future placement of implant much more difficult and makes the risk of implant rejection rise. Additionally, jawbone density loss can cause surrounding teeth to loosen and shift, impact facial structure, and make maintaining good oral health difficult. Patients who wait to receive dental implant after losing a tooth also have trouble eating, speaking, and smiling.
