Depending on the case, the implant treatment recovery process may consist 2-3 steps. Most of the patients go through 2 stages.
First of all, you must have enough bone tissue for the implant. If your bone tissue is not thick enough to hold an implant, our dentist may perform a procedure called ‘’bone grafting’’ To be able to place the implant, your jawbone must be healed completely. The recovery period for the bone grafting can be 4-6 months depending on the patient.
If your bone tissue is thick enough, you will not need a bone grafting procedure. You can have the implant treatment straight away. The healing period for the implant must be at least 3 months. This period can be extended to several months or a year.
Once your jawbone is completely healed, you can have your crown (tooth) on the implant top. This way, you will have your missing teeth back in a healthy way.
