Because implants are surgically placed into the jaw bone, they require 4-6 months to heal and fully integrate with the bone. However, we streamline this process by offering implant surgery the day of your tooth extraction. In many cases, we can attach a temporary crown or prosthesis that will function comfortably as your implants heal. Each patient case is unique, however, and we welcome you to our Ocala, FL office for a complimentary consultation with Dr. Brand.
