Dental implants are replacement tooth roots. Implants provide a strong foundation for fixed replacement teeth that are made to match your natural teeth. Typically, the dental implant procedure is performed on those who have lost a tooth or several teeth due to injury, tooth decay or periodontal disease (gum or bone infection). In short, dental implants can replace missing teeth with a more natural look and feel compared to dentures and other types of dental restorations.

1. Your mouth will be rinsed with an antiseptic. Anesthesia will be administered, so pain should not be felt at all.
2. A small incision will be created in the gum to reveal the jawbone. This enables the surgeon to prepare the bone.
3. A specific hole will be gradually and gently drilled into the jawbone. The size of the hole depends on the size of the implants.
4. The implant will be gently tapped into position. The incision will be closed with stitches. Occasionally, abutments are placed simultaneously with the implants.

Q1: Is the dental implant procedure painful?
A1: Many say that having a tooth extracted is more painful. However, incisions must be made at the gums, which is why anesthesia is used.

Q2: Are there alternatives to dental implants?
A2: An alternative may be a dental bridge, which can also be used to replace missing teeth. If you currently have a denture, adjusting it for a better fit may help.

Q3: Are follow-ups necessary?
A3: Yes. Since it will take several months for your jawbone to fuse with the implants, you will need multiple follow-up visits with your surgeon. This is to observe how well your jaw is healing. Overall, this procedure will require you to stay at least 2 weeks for the first stage, which is the implant surgery. 4 to 6 months after, you need to come back for the final crown or capping, which will take 3 weeks to finish.
