Dental implants are permanent, natural-looking replacements for missing teeth. They consist of a titanium post that integrates with the jawbone and is topped with a custom-made crown.

Most individuals with missing teeth and good oral health are candidates. Sufficient jawbone density is required for implant placement. A consultation with our dentist can determine eligibility.

The entire process typically takes several months, including consultation, implant placement, healing, and crown attachment. The healing period (osseointegration) can take 3-6 months.

The procedure is performed under anesthesia to ensure comfort. Some mild discomfort may occur after surgery, but it can be managed with pain relievers and proper aftercare.

Dental implants are a permanent solution that look and function like natural teeth, while dentures and bridges may require adjustments over time. Implants also help preserve jawbone health.

With proper oral hygiene and regular dental check-ups, implants can last a lifetime. The crown may need replacement after 10-15 years due to normal wear.

Regular brushing, flossing, and dental visits are essential for maintaining implant health. Avoiding smoking and excessive force on the implant will also prolong its lifespan.

Missing teeth can lead to jawbone deterioration, shifting teeth, and bite misalignment. Dental implants help maintain oral structure and restore function.

Most patients resume normal activities within 24-48 hours. However, strenuous activities should be avoided for a few days to ensure proper healing.

Smoking can increase the risk of implant failure due to slower healing. However, with proper precautions and good oral hygiene, implants can still be successful.
