The Implant Treatment Process
Implant Placement
Once your treatment plan is finalized, the implant is placed into the jawbone where the missing tooth root once was. The area is then cleaned and closed so the healing process can begin. This crucial step creates the stable foundation your future restoration will rely on.
Healing Begins
After placement, the implant needs time to bond with the surrounding bone. The gum tissue typically begins healing within the first couple of weeks, while the deeper integration process can take several months. We will schedule follow-up visits to ensure your healing stays on track.
Smile Restored
Once the implant has fully integrated, a custom restoration is created to match your surrounding teeth. This restoration is attached to the implant with a small connector piece, completing your new tooth with a secure, natural-looking result.

Good home care, routine dental visits, and healthy gum tissue all play an important role in protecting your implant over time.
