FAQ
How long does it take to get dental implants?
Generally, the entire process can take as little as a month to one year. It is important to keep in mind that each patient’s needs are unique, thus, impacting the overall duration.
Are implants covered by insurance?
Some insurance plans do cover portions of dental implants. Be sure to check with your insurance carrier about your individual coverage.
How long do dental implants last?
With regular brushing and flossing, the implant screw itself can last a lifetime, assuming the patient receives regular dental check-ups every 6 months. The crown usually lasts about 10 to 15 years before it may need to be replaced due to wear and tear.
Is dental implant surgery painful?
Advanced anesthesia techniques and 3D-guided placement are used to ensure your comfort during the procedure. With numbed nerves, you should not experience any pain. Our team will continuously monitor you throughout the procedure to make sure you remain comfortable. To limit discomfort and expedite healing it’s important to follow all postoperative instructions given by your doctor.
Can dentures be made into implants?
It is not possible to take existing dentures and turn them into implants. However, new implant-retained dentures can be made.
Will I still need dental exams and cleanings?
Yes, it’s still important to regularly visit your dentist for exams and cleanings. Maintaining good oral hygiene will ensure that you get the most out of your new dental implants!
