Dental implants as a permanent and natural-looking solution for missing teeth. Dental implants restore function, improve appearance, and help maintain healthy bone structure for a confident smile.
What Is The Dental Implant Procedure?
Dental implant surgery is performed under anesthesia in the comfort of our office. During the procedure, the doctor makes a small incision in the gum to expose the underlying bone and carefully creates a space for the implant. Once the implant is securely placed, a post or abutment is attached, serving as the foundation for a crown or permanent dentures to restore your smile.
How Long Does Implant Healing Take?
The healing process after dental implant surgery at Complete Dental Care of Atlantis, Florida varies for each patient. Most patients recover within 3 to 7 days, with any discomfort typically subsiding during this time. The process of osseointegration—where the implant fuses with the bone—takes approximately 3 to 6 months. This crucial step occurs “behind the scenes” and is completely painless, ensuring a strong and stable foundation for your new tooth or restoration.
