Common Questions About Dental Implants

What Are Dental Implants?

Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone to act as a stable foundation for replacement teeth. They mimic the function of natural tooth roots, offering a permanent solution for missing teeth.

How Long Do Dental Implants Last?

With proper care and maintenance, dental implants can last many years—often decades. Regular dental check-ups and good oral hygiene are key to extending the lifespan of your implants.

Is the Implant Procedure Painful?

The dental implant procedure is typically performed under local anaesthesia, so you shouldn’t feel pain during the process. Post-surgery, some mild discomfort is expected, but it is usually manageable with over-the-counter pain relief.

Am I a Suitable Candidate for Dental Implants?

Candidates for dental implants generally need healthy gums and sufficient bone density to support the implant. Our team will assess your oral health and medical history to determine your suitability during a comprehensive consultation.

How Long Does the Implant Process Take?

The dental implant process varies depending on individual needs but typically takes a few months. This period includes the initial placement of the implant and the healing time needed for the implant to integrate with the jawbone before the final restoration.
