Are the immediate dental implants stored in the clinic?

Doctor's Answer

No, I don’t have a supply of these individual teeth. And the reason why is because we can manufacture it differently.

Everyone's teeth are different. For example, your teeth could be big, mine could be small, some people's teeth can be long, or broad.

Everyone's teeth are different, so the beauty of computer-guided planning and CADCAM technology is that through all these scans and software we can actually make immediate temporary crowns that will be in the exact same shape to blend in with the rest of the teeth.

So I don’t need to keep a whole array of teeth sizes to kind of try to mix and match to see which is the closest match because all these are customized for every individual, so it's brilliant. The technology we have now is really advanced that we can pre-make or pre customize teeth according to the individual specifications of the patient.
