Implant Procedure for Missing One Tooth

COURSE OF TREATMENT: SINGLE-TOOTH IMPLANT – STEP-BY-STEP The course of treatment described here is one of several options available. Consult our office to find out what the best solution is for you, given your specific condition.
1: Before the procedure: An examination and one or more x-rays of the area are made to prepare for the procedure.
2: Placing the implant and abutment: The implant is placed. At this time, a temporary tooth is provided for front teeth that allow you eat and function like normal almost immediately. The implant will need a few months to integrate with the jawbone before the next step is taken.
3: Attaching the new crown: The final step is the placement of the final ceramic tooth. The crown is cemented in place.
4: End result: You should expect the new tooth to fit and function just like a natural tooth. Do your usual dental hygiene to keep the tooth and gum around it clean and healthy.
