A Complete Guide to What to Expect During Dental Implant Surgery

Despite maintaining your oral hygiene, many people suffer tooth loss as a sign of ageing or trauma. Tooth loss might sound healthy, but it affects your personality if the missing tooth is very much visible.
Are you missing your missing tooth? Are you looking for a less painful and permanent solution for missing tooth? Are you embarrassed to smile openly in public due to loss tooth? Dental implant surgery can be one solution to all these problems.
What is Dental Implant?
In simple words, a dental implant is a replacement of the tooth roots. They lay a strong foundation for permanent or removable teeth designed to match with your natural teeth. A dental implant is also known as artificial tooth implanted into your jaw to replace a lost tooth.
It does not just help you preserve the beautiful view of your mouth but also protect the overall structure of the mouth and preventing teeth from moving out of their natural positions in painful ways.
Are you willing to consider dental implant surgery? Continue reading to find out how dental implant surgery is performed and being a patient, what you should prepare yourself for?
Initial Evaluation
Our dentist in Oshawa and Scarborough first ask the patients to do a full and thorough examination of teeth, this includes X-rays and teeth models to make sure the dental implants are custom-designed to match with the patient’s natural teeth.
The dental clinic in Oshawa will also evaluate any medical conditions you may have or medications you have been using, especially the ones used over the counter. Are you a heart patient or have undergone any orthopaedic implants? If yes, your doctor will prescribe some antibiotics to eliminate any chances of treatment infection.
During the Surgery
The dental implant surgery at the dental clinic in Scarborough is performed under anesthesia (your dentist shall decide the type of anesthesia depending on the severity of your case) and is a two-phase procedure. In the first part of the surgery, the dentist removes your decayed/damaged tooth and prepares your jawbone for surgery.
Once the jawbone heals completely, an implant is inserted into the gum line and left again to heal completely. In the meantime, your surgeon will prepare an abutment (a piece that screws your implant and on which your artificial tooth will attach later) and attach the artificial tooth on top of it.
The whole dental implant procedure might take several months to complete, and a lot of rest to get your jawbone healed completely. Without a strong jawbone, the implant won’t stay for long so be patient with your healing process.
