Frequently asked questions

Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed into your jawbone to replace tooth roots. Once placed, the bone fuses with the implant through a process called osseointegration. A custom-made crown is then attached to the implant, creating a replacement tooth that looks and functions naturally.

The complete process typically takes 3-6 months. Initial implant placement takes about an hour per implant, followed by a healing period of 3-4 months for osseointegration. Once healed, your custom crown is fitted in a final appointment. Same-day options are available for some cases.

The procedure is performed under local anaesthetic, so you won't feel pain during placement. You may feel some pressure but no discomfort. Post-procedure, expect mild aching for 3-5 days, easily managed with standard painkillers. Most patients report less discomfort than expected.

With proper care, dental implants can last 20-30 years or even a lifetime. The crown may need replacing after 10-15 years due to normal wear. Regular checkups every 6 months and good oral hygiene are essential for longevity.

Once fully healed, you can eat anything you would with natural teeth. Unlike dentures, implants don't slip or move, allowing you to enjoy all your favourite foods. During the healing period, we recommend softer foods to protect the implant site.
