Implantology: What to Expect—From the Consultation to the Final Smile

The treatment process always begins with a thorough consultation. The dentist assesses the health of the patient's mouth, checks the amount of available bone, and listens to the patient's needs. During this phase, X-rays are taken and, when necessary, a 3D CT scan is performed to precisely analyze the area where the implant will be placed. This is the time to clarify any doubts and explain all possible options.

Treatment Planning
Once all the clinical information has been gathered, the practice develops a personalized plan. This phase determines the timing, materials to be used, and the number of implants needed. This preparation allows for safe and predictable results, while preserving the natural shape of the smile.

Dental Implant Insertion
Implant insertion is a quick surgical procedure performed under local anesthesia. The dentist places a small titanium screw into the bone to replace the natural root of the tooth. The procedure is painless, and in most cases, the patient can return to their normal activities the following day. It is normal to experience slight swelling in the following hours, which resolves quickly.

Healing Phase and Osseointegration
Once the implant is placed, the osseointegration phase begins. The bone gradually bonds with the titanium, making the implant stable and durable. This process takes a few weeks but is essential to ensure long-term durability. During this period, the patient is followed by regular check-ups to monitor healing.

Placement of the Permanent Crown
Once healing is complete, the prosthetic phase begins. The dentist takes a precise impression and creates a custom-made crown that integrates naturally with the rest of the teeth. The color and shape are carefully selected to achieve a harmonious and realistic result. Once the crown is in place, the smile is complete and functional again.

Implant Care and Maintenance
Dental implants last for many years if maintained with proper oral hygiene. It is important to brush your teeth regularly, use specific tools to clean between the implant and gums, and schedule regular check-ups. This prevents plaque buildup and maintains the health of the tissue supporting the implant.
