How this treatment works
How dental implant treatment works
Treatment happens in stages, with a healing period between placing the implant and fitting the new tooth.
-
Before you travel
Online consultation
Send a recent X-ray or photos of your teeth. A dentist replies with a personalised plan and a written quote.
-
Stage 1
Examination and planning
Your dentist examines your mouth and checks your jawbone on X-rays. Your plan should explain each stage and its cost.
-
If needed
Bone grafting
If there is not enough bone, a graft builds it up first, which can add 4 to 6 months. In the upper back jaw, a sinus lift makes room for new bone.
-
Stage 2
Placing the implant
Under local anaesthetic, the implant is placed in the jawbone and the gum is closed with stitches. Discomfort should last no more than about a week.
-
Healing
The implant bonds with the bone
The implant bonds with the bone, usually over around four months. Implants buried under the gum need a small procedure to uncover them.
-
Stage 3
New teeth and aftercare
The crown, bridge or denture is attached. Clean around it daily with interdental brushes and keep regular check-ups.
These are the usual steps of this treatment at Vita Smile. Timelines depend on your bone, your health and your plan; your dentist confirms them after examining you.
