Your Dental Implant Procedure In 5 Steps
The dental implant procedure takes an average of 4 months, between the surgical procedure and the tooth being restored in the mouth. The procedure may take longer for those who heal slower or require bone grafts to add volume to their jawbone.
Checkup
- Your dentist assesses your oral health and determines if you are a suitable candidate for dental implants.
- X-rays or Cone beam CT scans of your jawbone are taken to plan the implant placement.
- Your dentist will plan your implant placement, choosing the right spot for your future crown placement to ensure the best aesthetic results
Surgery
- Local anaesthesia is administered to numb the surgical site.
- Your dentist creates a small incision in the gum tissue.
- A hole is drilled into the jawbone before the implant fixture is inserted into the treatment site.
- Gum tissue is then stitched back into place, covering the implant.
Healing
- Over the next few months, the implant is left to integrate with the jawbone through a process called osseointegration.
Impressions
- Once the implant has successfully integrated with the jawbone, an impression of your teeth and gums is taken to create a customised dental crown. On rare occasions the gum might need to be reopened to expose the dental implant.
Abutment and crown placement
- An abutment, a connector piece between the implant and the crown, is attached to the implant.
- The crown, created based on the impression, is attached to the abutment.
- The dentist then ensures that your bite is comfortable, making adjustments to the crown where necessary.

A botched implant is hard to fix. Get your treatment right the first time.
That’s why it’s important to consult an experienced dentist, who can factor in your unique anatomy during treatment.
Who is suitable for dental implants?
Most people with missing or decayed teeth are suitable for implants. However, there are certain health factors your dentist will look out for.
- Sufficient jaw density – jaws form the foundation for implants
- Gum health – healthy gums make for smoother healing
- Diabetes and autoimmune disorders – these conditions can affect healing
- Smoking – smoking can affect the success rate of implants
- Teeth grinding – excessive grinding can cause complications
It is always best to consult your dentist to get a full health assessment and all available treatment options.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long do dental implants last?
Dental implants have the potential to last a lifetime with proper care and maintenance. However, the lifespan of an implant can vary depending on factors such as oral hygiene practices, overall health, and habits such as smoking.
Is the dental implant procedure painful?
The dental implant procedure is usually performed under local anaesthesia, which ensures that the patient does not feel pain during the surgery. After the procedure, some discomfort, swelling, or mild pain may be experienced, but it can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain medications.
Can I get dental implants if I am missing multiple teeth?
Yes, implants can be used to support individual crowns, implant-supported bridges, or even full arch dentures.
How should I care for dental implants?
Caring for dental implants is similar to caring for natural teeth. Regular brushing and flossing, along with routine dental check-ups and professional cleanings, are necessary.
