Is a dental implant simply a screw placed into your bone? Not quite.
Dental implant treatment is a process with several important stages.
Before the procedure, your dentist needs to evaluate your overall health, oral health, bone condition and suitability for implant treatment. Detailed planning is then done to determine the appropriate approach.
After implant placement, the implant needs time to integrate with the surrounding bone. Once healing and integration are satisfactory, the next stage involves the restoration — including the crown.
And it doesn't end there.
Regular maintenance and review appointments are important for monitoring the implant and the surrounding tissues over time.
Implant placement is a procedure. Implant success is a process.
If you're considering dental implants, speak with an experienced implant dentist and understand the complete treatment journey before you begin.
