Dental Implant surgery procedure
The dentist does an evaluation using X-rays and scans to ensure there is no bone loss. If there is too much damage or bone loss, the doctor uses bone grafts.
The first step is to place an implant. The doctor drills a hole into your gum and exposes the bone. They insert a metal post in the bone after which the jaw bone fuses with the implant providing a strong base for the new tooth. This might take several weeks.
After the Implant post is fused to the bone, the doctor will attach an abutment to the implant by reopening the gum. This being a minor outpatient procedure, is done by administering local anesthesia.
After this step, you can choose the type of artificial tooth i.e., removable or fixed. The crown is fixed only when your jaw is healed and can support the new tooth.
This procedure can take anywhere from 3 to 6 months.
