Placement of dental implants – procedure and duration

Dental implant placement is an effective and reliable procedure to restore your smile. In the initial phase, the dentist will assess your teeth and determine the treatment plan. During the first phase, the titanium screw is built in the jawbone under local anaesthesia, and the procedure takes about 1-2 hours.

After 3-6 months of healing, the final phase of implant placement is taking place. It includes fabrication and placement of dental crowns, which usually takes several dentist’s visits. In this phase, impressions are taken, and then an abutment or superstructure is placed on which the crown is fabricated. Finally, they are secured together with the implant screw.

How long does the implant procedure takes? The whole procedure of dental implant placement, from the initial consultations until the final dental crown placement, takes about 4-6 months. The process is influenced by the condition of your teeth, the healing speed, as well as the need for additional procedures such as sinus lift or additional bone grafting. Although the duration of this process may vary depending on the individual state of each patient, the placement of dental implants provides the long-term solution offering a stable and natural appearance.

Recovery and potential issues (complications) after dental implant placement

Recovery after the dental implant placement usually takes a few days up to a few weeks. The usual symptoms include swelling after implant placement, and mild pain and bruises, which can be relieved with cold compresses and painkillers.

Nevertheless, some of the potential problems and dental implant complications that can appear during the recovery are the following:

  • Infection: This can occur around the implant, which requires antibiotics or additional procedures.
  • Implant rejection symptoms: Although is rare, the body can reject the implant as a foreign body.
  • Implant loss: This can happen if the implant is not properly integrated with the bone.
  • Nerve damage: There is a risk of damage to a surrounding nerve, which can cause pain, tingling or numbness.

Regular dental check-ups and careful adherence to post-operative instructions during the recovery after the implant placement can significantly reduce the risk of these complications. Timely recognition and treatment of these problems are the key to successful recovery.
