Professional Dental Implants
A dental implant is an artificial tooth root, usually made from titanium, placed in the jawbone to support a replacement tooth. Implants may support a crown, bridge or denture, depending on the number and position of missing teeth.
Suitability depends on your general health, gums and available jawbone. Your dentist will compare implants with alternatives such as bridges or removable dentures and explain the benefits and limitations of each option.
Number of visits: Depends on the treatment plan.
Treatment duration: Depends on the stages of care and healing.
Recovery: Varies with the procedure and individual health.
The Implant Process
Your dentist will review your medical and dental history and examine your teeth, gums and jawbone. Appropriate imaging will be arranged when needed for assessment and planning. If additional procedures, such as bone grafting or a sinus lift, may be needed, your dentist will explain the options and any referral arrangements.
Before treatment, your dentist will discuss the proposed stages, alternatives, anaesthesia, fees and risks relevant to your case. Possible complications include infection, damage to nearby structures and failure of the implant to integrate with the bone.
Implant placement and the fitting of the replacement tooth are usually carried out in stages. Your dentist will assess healing before taking impressions or scans for the crown, bridge or denture. The timing varies between patients; further procedures can extend the treatment period. You will receive aftercare instructions and a follow-up plan.
How Long Do Implants Last?
Dental implants can function for many years, but their lifespan cannot be guaranteed. Long-term care includes cleaning around the implants and attending regular dental reviews. Smoking, oral health and general health can affect healing and maintenance.
The crown, bridge or denture supported by an implant may need repair or replacement over time. Your dentist will explain how to care for the implant and its restoration.
