What Are Dental Implants?
Dental implants offer a natural-looking solution to fill gaps in your smile. They are designed to look and feel like real teeth, enabling you to eat, talk, and above all, smile confidently. Implants can replace single or multiple teeth and even support full arch restorations. For missing teeth, no treatment or procedure is as permanent as dental implants. With proper care, implants can last a lifetime. They can also help preserve bone structure by preventing bone loss adding to the benefits of an improved overall appearance.
The Dental Implant Procedure
The dental implant process typically occurs in several stages over several months. If needed, it may begin with tooth extractions. The implant is then inserted into the jawbone and allowed to fuse with it. Once healing is complete, an abutment is placed on the implant to support a bridge, crown or full denture. After the procedure, your implant will function and feel like a natural tooth, and you’ll care for it just as you would your natural teeth.
Ideal Candidates for Dental Implants
Dental implants are ideal for individuals with one or more missing teeth due to trauma or decay. Candidates should have good overall oral health and show no signs of gum disease. Additionally, being a non-smoker is crucial, as smoking can hinder healing and increase the risk of complications. Treatment may not be appropriate for those with uncontrolled diabetes or those who have undergone jaw radiotherapy. We will go over these criteria during your consultation for dental implants.

Frequently Asked
Questions (FAQs)
Find the answers to the most commonly asked questions regarding dental implants below:
What types of dental implants are available?
Various types of dental implants are available to address different needs. Single-teeth dental implants are used to replace individual teeth and fill gaps, preventing adjacent teeth from shifting. For more extensive restorations, All-on-4 implants use 4-6 implants to support a full arch of teeth.
How long does the dental implant treatment go for?
The dental implant procedure typically takes about 30 minutes to a couple of hours, depending upon the case complexity. However, the overall treatment duration also includes healing time of the implant, which usually ranges from 6 to 12 weeks.
What is the recovery time after getting dental implants?
Most patients report that the recovery from dental implants takes almost as long as recovery from an extraction. Post-treatment, you may experience some tenderness and swelling for some days, but these symptoms usually subside gradually.
How durable are dental implants?
With proper care, the dental implant can last a lifetime. However, the bridge, crown or denture attached to the implant may need repair or replacement over time. On average, these restorations last around ten years or more with appropriate care.
