A dental implant surgery is done in two parts. A dental implant is placed in the jaw in the first part, and a tooth crown is placed on the dental implant in the second part.
First Visit: The first visit is of 4-5 days. In this visit, on the first day, the doctor first takes a 3D image or an x-ray of the mouth, and then plans the treatment. Dental implant is placed on the second day.
Dental Implant Placement: In this surgery, the dental implant is placed in the jaw. It takes 45-60 minutes to insert one dental implant. After the surgery, you can resume your daily work after 2-3 days. A tooth crown is not yet placed in this surgery because the bone needs time to heal completely.
Healing / Waiting Time: The healing / waiting time is of 2 months. A temporary acrylic tooth crown is placed over the dental implant as a temporary replacement of a permanently fixed tooth crown.
During this time, you can eat, chew all types of food, but a temporary acrylic tooth
crown is weaker than a permanently fixed zirconia tooth crown, so you should only eat food that is soft, and avoid biting food items that are hard.
Second Visit: The second visit is of 3-4 days. In this, the temporary acrylic tooth crown is removed and a fixed tooth crown is permanently placed over the dental implant. No healing time is required after this.
Question: Is a dental implant surgery painful?
Answer: No, it is a completely painless procedure.
Question: Do you use anesthesia to reduce pain?
Answer: Yes, anesthesia is used to numb the mouth. You will be fully awake during the treatment and you will not feel any pain in the mouth.
Question: How many days are required for the complete dental implant surgery and the tooth crown procedure?
Answer: The complete dental implant surgery and the tooth crown procedure takes 2 visits of 4-5 days with a gap of 2 months in between the visits.
Question: How long does a dental implant last?
Answer: A dental implant lasts for 15+ years.
Question: What if I do not get a dental implant?
Answer: If the empty space left by an extracted tooth is not filled by a dental implant, then it will cause other teeth to fall soon. See the effects of a missing tooth on other teeth here.
Question: Is a tooth crown compulsory after inserting a dental implant?
Answer: Yes, a tooth crown is compulsory after inserting a dental implant.
Question: Does a tooth after the dental implant procedure look like a natural tooth?
Answer: Yes, it looks like a natural tooth because the color of tooth crown matches with the color of your other natural teeth.
