Dental implant process
-
Preliminary consultation : The patient first needs to consult with the dentist, who will provide professional suggestions and treatment plans according to the patient's oral conditions and needs. -
Preoperative examination : Carry out a comprehensive oral examination, including X-ray and CT scanning, to evaluate the condition of alveolar bone and determine the feasibility of dental implant. -
Surgical implantation : Under local anesthesia, the doctor will implant the implant (usually titanium alloy material) into the alveolar bone. -
Healing period : The implant needs to combine with the alveolar bone for a period of time, which is called osseointegration and usually takes several months. -
Install dental crown After the completion of bone integration, the doctor will install the dental crown on the implant to complete the whole process of dental implant.
