Dental Implant Procedure
The dental implant post anchors the tooth as the natural tooth root would do. The implants are surgically placed in the jawbone. The jawbone is then given time to heal and fuse with the dental implant.
For most patients, placing dental implants requires two surgical procedures. First, the implants are surgically placed in the jawbone where the natural teeth are missing. For three to six months following surgery, the implants gradually bond with the jawbone. You can wear temporary dentures and eat soft foods during this time. Dr. Singh will then design the final bridge or denture.
After the implant has had time to bond to the jawbone, the second phase of treatment can begin. The implants will be uncovered, and small healing collars are attached. Your replacement teeth can then be created. Impressions are taken. Then abutments are connected to the implants. The replacement teeth are connected to these abutments. The entire dental implant process usually takes six to eight months.
