The Implant Placement Procedure
Receiving a dental implant usually includes two separate stages.
Stage 1: Implant placement (4-5 visits in 4-5 days with a checkup after 8-10 days)
- The first appointment involves an overall health examination, CT bone beam X-rays and use of the Nobel Clinician software to guide the surgical process. A cleaning will be performed, and study casts will be taken. Together, you and your dentist will design your treatment plan.
- At your second appointment, the implant is placed, taking anywhere from 15 minutes for a single placement to three hours for more complex cases. A temporary crown or denture is given to you, and you can rest before leaving.
- The third and fourth appointments involve examining your implant site, taking scans or impressions to create the crown (completed in-house within 24 hours) and installing the abutment or crown on the implant within 72 hours of implant placement.
- At the fourth or fifth appointments, stitches are removed, and you’re given a final checkup, which usually occurs 8-10 days after placement.
Stage 2: Prosthesis (4-6 months after placement, requiring 10-14 days total)
- At your first appointment during this second phase, you’ll receive an examination and have X-rays taken. A healing cap is placed at the site, and then we give 5-7 days for the area to heal.
- The second appointment involves impressions taken for the prosthesis, which is then created at our in-house lab over 2-3 days.
- When you return for your third appointment, the abutment is installed. Impressions are taken of your bite so that your new tooth or teeth can be created from a template.
- At your fourth appointment, we’ll perform a final checkup to ensure that your implant fits seamlessly into your smile and that you’re satisfied with your results.
