FAQ
What is involved in dental implant placement?
Dental implant placement involves surgically inserting a titanium post into the jawbone to act as a replacement root for a missing tooth. The post integrates with the bone over time, providing a stable foundation for a prosthetic tooth.
Is dental implant placement a painful procedure?
Most patients experience minimal discomfort during and after the procedure, thanks to local anesthesia and pain management techniques. Any discomfort typically subsides within a few days.
How long does the dental implant placement procedure take?
The actual implant placement procedure generally takes about 1 to 2 hours. However, the overall treatment time includes a healing period, which can last several months before the final restoration is placed.
What is the recovery time for dental implant placement?
Recovery time varies, but most patients can return to normal activities within a few days. Full healing and bone integration typically take several months, during which follow-up appointments are necessary.
Are there any risks associated with dental implant placement?
While dental implant placement is generally safe, risks can include infection, implant failure or issues with bone integration. Your dentist will discuss these risks and provide guidance on minimizing them.
