What it is
A dental implant is placed in the jaw to replace a missing tooth root and support a replacement tooth or other restoration.
What a visit may involve
An assessment considers your oral health and suitability. Planning, surgery, healing and restoration may involve several stages and professional referrals.
Your dentist would explain the proposed approach, alternatives, potential risks and expected costs before any treatment decision.
A question to bring
to your dentist
Am I a suitable candidate, and what stages would be involved?
