What to expect during the procedure?

What to expect during the procedure?

In a surgical procedure, dental implants are placed into the jawbone by a dental surgeon. This may involve a healing period known as osseointegration, during which the implants fuse with the bone. Once the implants have integrated with the jawbone, abutments (connector pieces) are attached to the implants. This step provides a foundation for the placement of the artificial teeth. In some cases, a temporary restoration may be placed during the healing period to maintain aesthetics and functionality. When the jawbone has fully healed, the final custom-made artificial teeth, such as crowns, bridges, or dentures, are securely attached to the abutments, completing the restoration.

What to expect after implant crown placement?

Experiencing some discomfort after the placement of an implant-supported crown is normal, and it's part of the healing process. The level of discomfort varies from person to person, and factors such as the complexity of the procedure, individual pain tolerance, and overall health can influence the post-operative experience.
