Overview
Implant surgery may take a single visit, but bone integration and the final prosthesis usually require more time. Some patients can receive temporary teeth earlier.
Implant care requires assessment of bone support, gum health, medical history and restoration goals. Surgical placement and final tooth restoration are separate steps.
Assessment and Planning
An individualized plan is prepared after a clinical examination and appropriate imaging. Healing times and surgical suitability vary.
Important Considerations
Potential benefits, limitations and complications must be discussed before treatment. Outcomes and timelines cannot be guaranteed.
