What is the Process of Getting Dental Implants?
This surgical procedure involves replacing a missing tooth with an artificial tooth root, typically made of titanium, placed into the jawbone. The implant serves as a strong and stable base for a dental crown, bridge, or denture, which is attached to the implant via an abutment.
The dental implant procedure typically involves a consultation with our dental professional to determine if the patient is a suitable candidate. If deemed eligible, the implant is surgically placed into the jawbone during a minor outpatient procedure under local anesthesia.
Once the implant fully integrates with the jawbone, which can take several months, a dental crown, bridge, or denture can be attached via an abutment. The result is a natural-looking and functional replacement tooth that can last many years with proper care and maintenance.
