4- Restoring Implant (abutment and crown) based on location of the tooth can vary from same appointment or up to six months after surgery

Quick description of the surgical procedure at your clinic.

1-3D-Scan will be taken to evaluate the bone level and width in 3D for proper treatment planing and to eliminate any guess work
2-Impression will be taken from the arch that Implant will be placed in
3-Day of surgery Surgical stent will be used to place the implant in proper depth and angle based on the virtual planning on 3D-Scan
4-After appropriate healing time, Impression will be taken from the Implant ( healing can vary from same day to 4 months)
5-Abutment and crown will be placed on the Implant

How many appointments are required to get one or two implants?

How long is the healing time?

All of our patients go back to their daily routine day after the surgery (Workout and heavy jobs need few days)

Almost one day after surgery the patient can continue their activities

What do advise your patients to do if they have a problem with their implant?

We had great success on regrowing bone around Implants with mild to moderate bone loss, however a loose Implant has to come out of the jaw and replaced by another Implant after proper healing

For our work the Implant it self has our office lifetime guarantee and the other component ( Crown and Abutment ) have 5 years guarantee ( NO QUESTION ASKED!) as long as the patient stay on his or hers routine check up and cleaning
