For many people, the thought of getting dental implants might seem complex or even intimidating. But with advancements in technology—like digital-guided surgery—and an experienced team, the process is more straightforward and comfortable than you might think.
If you’re considering dental implants as a permanent solution for missing teeth, read on below for a step-by-step overview of what to expect.
Step 1: Comprehensive Consultation and Examination
Every successful dental implant journey begins with a thorough consultation. At DENTL, we take 3D CBCT X-rays to get a detailed look at your jawbone and surrounding structures. This advanced imaging helps us determine if implants are suitable for you.
During this visit, we’ll also review your medical history, discuss your goals, and ensure you’re an ideal candidate for the procedure. Think of this as the foundation for your treatment plan.
Step 2: Precise Planning and Digital-Guided Surgery
Implant placement is all about precision. Using digital planning tools, we map out the exact location of your implant, creating a 3D-printed surgical guide to ensure accuracy during the procedure.
This minimally invasive approach reduces surgical time, minimises discomfort, and promotes faster healing. With our advanced techniques, you can rest assured that the procedure is both safe and efficient.
Step 3: Healing and Osseointegration
After the implant is placed, it undergoes a process called osseointegration, where the implant fuses with your jawbone. This phase typically takes around three months, allowing the implant to become strong and stable—much like a natural tooth root.
During this period, we’ll provide you with guidance on maintaining optimal oral hygiene to support healing.
Step 4: Crafting and Placing Your Crown
Once the implant has fully integrated, we’ll take a digital scan of your mouth to design your custom crown. Working with expert ceramists, we craft a restoration made from premium titanium and ceramic, ensuring it looks, feels, and functions like a natural tooth.
The result? A seamless smile that blends beautifully with your existing teeth
Step 5: Reviews, Aftercare, and Maintenance
After your crown is placed, ongoing reviews and aftercare are essential. These follow-up appointments are designed to ensure your implant is functioning perfectly and to provide you with the tools and knowledge needed to care for your implants and natural teeth.
By maintaining proper hygiene and regular check-ups, you can protect your investment and enjoy the long-term benefits of dental implants.
