Dental Implants FAQs

A dental implant is a tiny titanium post implanted surgically into the jawbone. The implant integrates with the jawbone, forming a solid basis that functions as a tooth root. A prosthetic tooth is inserted after the fusion is complete.

Dental implants are the recommended procedure of tooth replacement for a variety of reasons, including:

• It is a long-lasting, long-term fix with a rate of success
• It can have the same appearance, feel, and function as a real tooth
• Dental implants, as compared to removable dentures, are permanent
• It only affects the missing tooth, as compared to bridges, which might cause harm to neighbor teeth
• Patients are typically satisfied, and their dental health has improved

The implant is first surgically implanted and given enough time to merge with the jawbone. The replacement tooth is placed once the merging is complete.

While the procedure is simple, it does take some time. It’s according to the patient’s requirement for enough recovery time following the placement procedure, as well as the implant’s necessity to adequately merge with the jawbone to guarantee long-term success. From the moment the implant is placed to the attachment of the prosthetic tooth, it normally takes around 4 months, however in certain unusual circumstances, it can take up to a year.

Usually, patients report little or no pain or discomfort shortly after surgery, and any pain that does come is readily controlled with painkillers.

Provided the treatment is effective, there will be no pain or discomfort in the long run. It is due to the fact that dental implants effectively become a part of your jawbone and therefore can feel almost indistinguishable from your natural teeth!

No, it is absolutely not. Both the titanium implant and the prosthetic tooth are completely safe.

If you’re in good health condition and have enough bone density and gum tissue, you’re a suitable candidate for dental implants. The best way to confirm is to have Dr. Swapnil properly assess you, so book your consultation soon!

There are several reasons why you might not be a good candidate for implants right away:

• If you do not have enough bone and/or gum tissue to sustain implants
• If you are too young and your jawbone has not yet fully grown
• If you do have a clinical condition that makes surgery unsafe
• If there are any pre-existing dental infections, implant therapy could be affected

If you are not qualified for dental implants, there are treatment procedures accessible that could allow you to have implants in the future. Bone grafting and gum augmentation are two of these alternatives.

Certain individuals are unable to have these procedures undertaken. In such circumstances, we provide other treatment choices which include bridges and removable treatments.
