What Is a Dental Implant?

A dental implant is a small titanium post surgically placed into the jawbone to replace the root of a missing tooth. It fuses with the bone over 2–4 months (osseointegration), after which a natural-looking crown is attached. The result is a permanent, fixed tooth that looks, feels, and functions like a natural tooth. Most patients at Heal Dental Clinic, Harlur return to normal activity within 24–48 hours.

Think of an implant as a three-part system. The titanium post acts as the root — it anchors into your jawbone and bonds with it over time. An abutment then connects this post to the final crown, which is custom-made to match the shape, size, and colour of your natural teeth.

Unlike dentures that can slip or bridges that require filing down adjacent teeth, implants are completely independent. They do not rely on neighbouring teeth, and they do not come out.

The Dental Implant Procedure at Heal Dental Clinic

Consultation & 3D X-Ray Assessment

Dr Harshita begins with a thorough examination of the gap site, gum health, and bone volume. A digital RVG, OPG or CBCT scan gives a precise picture of the bone structure available for implant placement. This step determines whether a bone graft is needed before the implant.

Bone Grafting (if required)

In some cases, if the bone at the implant site has shrunk, a bone graft is placed first to build sufficient volume. This is a minor procedure done under local anaesthesia. A healing period of 8–12 weeks follows before the implant is placed.

Implant Placement

The titanium implant post is surgically placed into the jawbone under local anaesthesia. The procedure typically takes 45–90 minutes. Most patients experience only mild soreness for 2–3 days, manageable with standard pain relief. In selected cases, an immediate implant may be possible. In case of immediate implants, the infected or decayed tooth is extracted, site is cleaned and disinfected, and an implant is placed into the bone immediately after that.

Osseointegration — Healing Period

Over the next 2–4 months, the implant fuses with the surrounding bone — a natural process called osseointegration. No visible treatment happens during this phase. The bone literally grows around the titanium post, locking it in place permanently.

Abutment Placement & Crown Fitting

Once fully integrated, a small connector (abutment) is attached to the implant post. Impressions are taken for your custom crown. The final crown is fitted 1–2 weeks later — colour-matched and shaped to blend with your natural teeth.

Is there a waiting period for dental implants?

The healing phase (osseointegration) takes 2–4 months after implant placement. This is a biological process — the bone grows around the titanium post. The actual surgical procedures are short. Total treatment duration from consultation to final crown is typically 3–6 months.

Can I get dental implants if I have gum disease?

Active gum disease must be treated before implant placement. Implants placed in diseased gum tissue have a significantly higher failure rate. Dr Harshita, as a Specialist Periodontist, treats gum disease first — ensuring the best possible implant outcome. This is one reason why specialist care matters for implants.
