How are dental implants placed? How long does it take?
The answer to this question depends on the type of treatment to be provided. With a computer guided implant treatment such as Teeth-in-a-hourâ„¢, you could have functioning teeth on dental implants with a single procedure that takes about an hour. However, for most patients, the placement of dental implants involves two surgical procedures. First, implants are placed into your jawbone by a minimally invasive procedure. For the first three to six months following surgery, the implants bond with the jawbone. You’ll be able to wear a temporary prosthesis and eat a soft diet until the implants are ready for the final restoration.
