Learn moreWhat to expect
Consultation
We review your concerns, health, medicines, smoking history and alternative tooth-replacement options.
Planning
Clinical examination and imaging help assess bone, gums, bite and nearby anatomical structures.
Surgery and healing
If suitable, the implant is placed and allowed to integrate before or during restorative stages, depending on the plan.
Restoration and review
The crown, bridge or denture is fitted and monitored with an individual maintenance program.
Risks, limitations and alternatives
Implant treatment has surgical and restorative risks. These can include pain, swelling, bruising, bleeding, infection, delayed healing, implant failure, gum or bone loss, damage to nearby teeth, nerves or sinus structures, and the need for additional treatment. Smoking, gum disease, some medicines and health conditions can increase risk.
Implants are not “permanent” or maintenance-free, and the restoration may need repair or replacement. Alternatives may include a bridge, removable denture, leaving the space, or another staged plan.
