How Dental Implants Work
- The implantation process: The implantation process involves surgically inserting the titanium post or screw into the jawbone, allowing it to fuse with the bone and provide a secure foundation for the replacement tooth.
- Preparing for dental implant surgery: Patients must prepare for dental implant surgery by visiting their dentist to discuss the procedure and necessary pre-operative instructions.
- The Surgical Procedure: This procedure involves carefully placing the implant into the jawbone and allowing it to fuse with the bone before attaching a prosthetic tooth.
- Healing Process: The healing period typically takes several months, during which the implant is allowed to fuse with the bone and become secure.
