Dental Implant Surgery: What You Need to Know
Our experienced dentists at Whitehouse Dental Services prioritise patient comfort throughout the entire journey. We provide detailed aftercare instructions to ensure a smooth recovery and successful integration.
What to Expect During the Implant Process:
1. Your Personal Consultation:
We take detailed digital scans of your jaw and assess your bone density to create a completely custom treatment plan tailored to your anatomy.
2. Precise Implant Placement:
Using local anaesthetic (or sedation if you are feeling anxious), our dentist gently places the titanium implant post into the jawbone. Most patients report that this feels no different than a standard filling!
3. The Healing Phase (Osseointegration):
Over the next 3 to 6 months, a beautiful natural process occurs where your jawbone fuses directly to the implant post, creating an anchor that is as strong as a real tooth root.
4. The Final Restoration:
Once fully healed, we attach your custom-shaded, durable porcelain crown. We match the color perfectly to your natural smile, completing your treatment.
