What can I expect from a single-tooth implant?
When considering whether to opt for a dental implant, you'll want to know what to expect from the surgery. The procedure for installing a single-tooth dental implant takes around five months to complete. However, in some cases – especially when bone needs to be built up in the jawbone first – the complete procedure can take a year or more.Your implant will proceed in three stages:
Stage One: Consultation
At your initial consultation, your chosen dental professional (either a periodontist or a dental surgeon qualified in dental implant procedures) will take x-rays of your mouth and conduct a full examination of your teeth and surrounding jawbone. You'll be informed of any measures you need to take to prepare for the surgery.
