- Dental implants are long-term tooth replacements composed of titanium metal screws that are inserted in the jawbone to replace natural tooth roots.

Visit 1: 5 to 12 Days
- The dentist will examine your oral cavity and identify the dental implants that are ideal for your case.
- If you are eligible for dental implants, the surgery will be done right away.
- A denture or dental crowns are fitted atop dental implants, giving you fully functional teeth.
- You can begin eating as soon as the anesthesia wears off. Follow the diet recommended by your dentist for uneventful healing of implants.
Visit 2: Up to 5 Days
- Visit 2 is scheduled after the implant site is completely healed.
- Porcelain denture is fitted on implants. This denture is aesthetically more pleasing and can also withstand stronger biting forces.

The bone graft surgery will assist bone formation. It may take 4 - 6 months for the bone to form and be ready for supporting dental implants.
