The Implant Treatment Process
The Implant
Treatment Process
Implant Placement
Once your treatment plan is confirmed, we’ll perform a minor oral surgery to place the implant into your jawbone. The area is cleaned and sutured to begin healing.
Healing & Osseointegration
Initial healing takes 1–2 weeks, but full integration with your jawbone (osseointegration) takes 3–6 months. We’ll monitor your progress with scheduled check-ins.
Final Restoration
After healing, we’ll attach a custom dental crown to your implant. This final step restores your smile’s function and appearance.
The Benefits of Dental Implants
Unmatched Comfort
Implants mimic natural teeth, allowing normal brushing, flossing, and eating.
Esthetically Pleasing
Each implant is custom-made to fit in flawlessly with your smile and resemble a real tooth.
Oral Health Preservation
Made from biocompatible titanium, implants fuse with your jawbone, preventing bone loss and maintaining your natural facial structure.

Everyone at the dentistry was very nice and welcoming. I especially want to thank Doctor Lee and assistant Meriam for their kindness. They did everything to make me feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Since it was quite cold in the morning, they even gave me a blanket, which I really appreciated.
