A dental implant is a titanium fixture placed in the jaw to support a replacement tooth. Suitability depends on oral health, bone, medical history, expectations and the final prosthetic plan.
The consultation may include clinical examination, radiographs or 3D imaging, periodontal assessment and a review of medical factors. Digital planning can help connect the intended tooth position to implant placement.
Treatment time varies. Some cases can be restored sooner, while others need several months of healing, especially when grafting is required. A personal timeline is confirmed only after assessment.
The procedure is usually performed with local anaesthesia. Post-treatment discomfort varies and is discussed with appropriate aftercare instructions.
Start with a clear consultation and examination, then discuss options and expected timing.
