Treatment
Dental Implants
Permanent tooth replacement that looks, feels, and functions just like a natural tooth.
What it is
A dental implant is a titanium post surgically placed into the jawbone to serve as an artificial tooth root, topped with a custom-made crown.
How it works
The implant post is placed in the jaw and allowed to fuse with the bone over several months. A custom crown is then attached to complete the restoration.
How it helps
Restores full chewing function, prevents bone loss, and provides a natural-looking, permanent replacement for missing teeth.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who might consider this treatment?
Adults with one or more missing teeth who have sufficient jawbone density and healthy gums.
What is the typical experience?
Implant placement is performed under local anesthesia. Most patients report minimal discomfort, manageable with over-the-counter pain relief.
How long does it usually take?
The full process takes 3–6 months to allow for healing and osseointegration before the final crown is placed.
Is there anything to keep in mind?
Bone grafting may be needed if jawbone density is insufficient. Implants require commitment to consistent oral hygiene.
What should I know about recovery after?
Some swelling and soreness after surgery is normal. A soft diet is recommended for the first few days after placement.
