Dental Implants
Dental implant treatment usually takes several months because your jawbone needs time to heal and integrate with the implant before we place the final restoration. The exact timeline varies depending on your oral health, the number of teeth you replace, and whether you need additional treatment first.
What Happens First?
We begin with a comprehensive examination and appropriate digital imaging to assess your teeth, gums, and jawbone. We also discuss your goals, medical and dental history, and whether implants are suitable for your needs.
How Is the Implant Placed?
When you’re ready, we place the implant into your jawbone. At Select Dental Care, we use X-Nav® technology to support guided implant placement. This technology combines 3-D digital imaging with computer-guided planning to help us carefully plan the implant’s position.
After placement, the implant needs time to heal and integrate with the surrounding bone. This healing period is an important part of creating a stable foundation for your restoration.
When Do I Get My New Tooth?
Once the implant has healed sufficiently, we place the abutment and custom restoration. In some cases, you may need additional treatment, such as bone grafting or gum disease treatment, which can affect your overall timeline.
