- What is a dental implant?
- A dental implant is an artificial
substitute/replacement for the root portion of
your natural tooth and is anchored into a
pre-drilled socket in your jaw-bone to support a
crown, bridge or secure a denture firmly in
place. - Implants are made from titanium, a material that
is well tolerated by bone and integrates easily
with bone tissue.

- During the placement of a dental implant, the
goal is to achieve a close contact between the
outer surface of the implant and the surrounding
bone tissue so they can fuse together
(osteointegration), creating a stable support for
the new teeth.

- How is a dental implant placed?
Before any implants are placed, it is important
for your dentist to assess the health of your
teeth and gums. If there are any signs of gum
disease or decay, these must first be treated.

- Thereafter, your treatment will be planned
following several x-rays and, in some cases, a CT
scan to assess that bone quality and check for
nearby anatomical structures to avoid before any
drilling.

- How is a dental implant placed?
- The procedure is usually carried out under local
anaesthesia IV sedation is sometimes used if it
is a long procedure or the patient is very
anxious. - The gum where the dental implant is to be
placed is cut and lifted and a small hole is
drilled in the jaw bone at the precise location
of the intended implant.

- The titanium implant is tightly fitted into this
socket and the gum is stitched back over the
implant. If there is insufficient bone material
to accommodate the implant, a bone graft may be
required, or the dentist may use smaller-sized
mini implants if suitable. - Once the dental implant has been placed, it is
left to heal and integrate with the jaw bone for
between six weeks to six months. The bone tissue
will grow and anchor itself into the microscopic
rough surface of the implant.

- During this healing period, patients are given
temporary teeth (bridges) or continue to wear
dentures. It is important that temporary teeth do
not exert any force on the healing implant. After
the healing period, the gum is again lifted and a
post is attached to the implant with a temporary
crown. - Four to six weeks later, when the surrounding
gum tissue has matured, the final permanent
restoration can be fitted to the implant.
