  2. How do dental implants work? A dental implant is a small, screw-like post made of titanium (or sometimes zirconia) that is surgically implanted and placed into your jawbone to act like a natural tooth root to enhance your smile and speech quality. It supports a crown, bridge, or denture to restore missing teeth. 2. How Do They Work? Dental implants surgery work through a process called osseointegration, where the implants fuse with the jawbone. Here's how the process goes step-by-step: Step-by-Step Process: 1. Initial Consultation ● Periodontist examines your mouth, takes digital X-rays or 3D scans. ● Determines if your bone is healthy enough for implants (sometimes bone grafting is needed).

  3. 2. Implant Placement (Surgery) ● The implant is surgically inserted into your jawbone. ● Healing time: 3 to 6 months (so the bone can fuse with the implant). 3. Abutment Placement ● Once the implant is stable, a connector piece (called an abutment) is placed on top. ● It sticks out slightly above the gumline and holds the crown. 4. Crown Placement ● A custom-made artificial tooth (crown) is attached to the abutment. ● It looks and functions like a natural tooth.

  4. Key Benefits: ● Dentalimplants placement provide long-lasting and durable solution ● Doesn’t shift like dentures ● Helps maintain jawbone health ● Dental implants help to restores chewing, speaking, and smiling with confidence Dental implants are typically not painful during the procedure itself, as local anesthesia is used to numb the area. However, after the procedure, some discomfort or soreness is common, especially during the first few days. This pain can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain medication, and any swelling or bruising should subside within a week.
