Who Is This For?

- Anyone who has experienced bone loss from a missing tooth
- Patients in good general health with adequate jawbone
What to Expect
- 1
Implant consultation
We evaluate your bone density, gum health, and overall oral health to determine if implants are right for you. X-rays and a 3D scan may be taken.
- 2
Treatment planning
We create a detailed plan including the number of implants, placement positions, and the type of restoration.
- 3
Implant placement
The titanium implant post is placed into the jawbone under local anesthesia. Sedation is available for anxious patients.
- 4
Healing period (osseointegration)
Over several months, the implant fuses with your jawbone. Most patients return to normal activities within a few days.
- 5
Abutment placement
Once healed, a small connector piece is attached to the implant to support the final restoration.
- 6
Final crown or restoration
A custom-made crown, bridge, or denture is attached, completing your new smile.
Recovery & Aftercare
- Mild soreness and swelling for 2–3 days after placement is normal
- Take prescribed or over-the-counter pain relievers as directed
- Eat soft foods for the first week and avoid the implant site
- Do not smoke — smoking significantly increases implant failure risk
- Keep the area clean with gentle brushing and saltwater rinses
- Attend all follow-up appointments to monitor healing
- Once fully healed, care for your implant just like a natural tooth
