Dental Implants Treatment Journey
Preparation
Before surgery begins, we will take x-rays and scans of your mouth so we can create the perfect treatment plan.
Inserting the Implant
We will give you a local anaesthetic before carefully inserting the implants into the jaw bone. We will sew the gums above the site of the implant.
Remove Stitches
In cases where stitches are required, we will remove them about a week later. The area is usually left to heal for at least three months before it can support the replacement dental crown.
Abutment and Impressions
We start to prepare the implant for the final crown. We begin by ensuring the bone and the implant are bonding together effectively. Then we place the abutment – the small piece that will connect the implant to the dental crown. Afterwards, we will take impressions of the mouth and send them to a dental technician. The technician will craft a ceramic crown to perfectly match the colour, shape and size of your existing tooth.
(Please note: It is sometimes possible to place a crown at the same time as the implants.)
Enjoy your new Smile
We place your new tooth and look forward to seeing you for follow-up appointments to hear how it improves your smile confidence.
