The exorbitant cost of dental implants combined with the lack of insurance coverage in the US is making people opt for teeth implants in Mexico.
Moreover, the geographical proximity to the US and Canada has also boosted dental tourism in Mexico.
This article will look at the cost of same-day implants in Mexico and the cities in Mexico that offer this procedure.
What Are Same Day Implants?
A dental implant comprises a metal post, usually made of titanium, implanted in the jaw bone, and topped with a crown.
Dental implants are the closest replacement to natural teeth.
Same-day implants are implants placed in a socket immediately after the tooth extraction. [1]
The prosthesis is attached at the same time as the implant.
Temporary prostheses after Immediate implant placement
A traditional implant procedure can take a few months, but immediate load dental implants quickly replace lost teeth.
The good news is that you have numerous dental clinics to choose from to get “teeth-in-a-day” implants in Mexico.
Patients who have lost all their teeth can consider All-on-4 and All-on-6 implant systems.
Here, all teeth of the lower or upper arch are placed over 4 or 6 implants.
However, for these systems, you’ll require at least two visits.
During the first visit, your dentist will perform teeth extraction (if any teeth are left) and surgery.
