Our Treatment Journey

Our step-by-step approach ensures you feel informed, comfortable, and supported throughout your implant journey.

Initial Consultation

We assess your oral health, discuss your goals, and determine if dental implants are the right option for you.

Implant Placement

A titanium implant is surgically placed into the jawbone, acting as an artificial tooth root. Over time, the implant fuses with the bone for a stable foundation.

Healing Period

A healing phase of 3-6 months allows the implant to integrate with the jawbone before the final restoration is placed.

Placing the Crown

Once the implant has healed, a custom-made crown is securely attached, completing the restoration for a natural-looking and fully functional tooth replacement.

FAQs

Considering dental implants often raises important questions — here are some of the answers our patients find most helpful.

How long do dental implants last?

With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime. Regular check-ups and good oral hygiene are essential for longevity.

Most patients experience minimal discomfort during the procedure, which is performed under local anaesthesia. Any post-surgery soreness is manageable with over-the-counter pain relief.

Most adults with good general and oral health are suitable candidates. A consultation will help determine if implants are right for you.

How do I care for my dental implants?

Daily brushing, flossing, and regular dental visits will help maintain the health and longevity of your implants.

 Age is not usually a barrier for dental implants. As long as you have healthy gums and sufficient bone, implants can be a suitable solution at any adult age.

 Healing can vary, but most patients see full integration of the implant within 3 to 6 months. Your dentist will guide you through the process and monitor your progress.
