Tooth implant medical surgery

About “Tooth implant medical surgery”

Dentist or oral surgeon will conduct a comprehensive examination of your mouth, which may include X-rays, CT scans, and dental impressions.
This assessment helps determine the quantity and quality of the bone in your jaw, ensuring you're a suitable candidate for dental implants.
Surgical Placement of the Implant:Dental implant surgery is usually performed under local anesthesia, though sedation may be an option for patients with anxiety or extensive procedures.The oral surgeon or periodontist makes an incision in the gum tissue to expose the jawbone where the implant will be placed.
A small hole is drilled into the jawbone, and the implant post, typically made of titanium, is securely inserted into the bone.
In some cases, a temporary covering may be placed over the implant site to protect it during the healing process.
