A dental implant treatment is the placement of a titanium post into the jawbone in order to replace a missing tooth. The post acts as an artificial root, and once it bonds with the bone, it can be used to anchor a dental crown, bridge or denture in place. Implants are considered the gold standard for tooth replacement because they are the most secure and longest lasting solution.

All the resources you will ever need to learn more about your Oral Health
Dental implants can last a lifetime with proper care and maintenance.
It depends on the individual case. Generally, it takes 3-4 sittings for dental implants, including the surgical placement of the implant, the abutment placement, and the placement of the final restoration.
Follow your oral health coach’s instructions for home care, including eating soft foods and avoiding any hard or crunchy foods. Avoid touching the area of your mouth where the implant was placed until it is completely healed. Brush and floss gently around the implant site. Avoid smoking until the implant is fully healed. Follow-up appointments with your dentist to monitor the healing process and ensure the implant is secure. Take any prescribed medications as directed. Maintain a healthy diet and practice good oral hygiene.
