What are dental implants and how are they different from dentures?
Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed into the jawbone to support permanent artificial teeth. Unlike removable dentures that rest on gums and can shift or slip, implants are firmly anchored in bone, providing stable, natural-feeling teeth.
How long before I can use my implant normally?
Typically, it takes 2-6 months for the implant to integrate with the jawbone (osseointegration) before the final crown or restoration can be placed.
Why are dental implants expensive?
The cost reflects premium imported materials, decades of research ensuring safety and effectiveness, advanced surgical techniques, and the expertise of specialized professionals required for optimal results. Implants are an investment in long-term quality and durability.
How long do dental implants last?
With proper care and regular dental visits, implants can last many years—even decades. Longevity depends on bone quality and density at placement, overall health, and consistent maintenance.
What age can I get dental implants?
Generally, males aged 17+ and females approximately 5 years post-menarche are candidates, as jaw growth must be complete. Individual assessment by a dentist is required to determine readiness.
Can dental implants cause cancer?
No. Implants use biocompatible titanium that's been certified safe for human use by the WHO and ADA. The same material is used in various medical implants and prosthetics throughout the body with an excellent safety record.
Why do some patients need bone grafting before implants?
When teeth have been missing for extended periods or extensive disease was present before extraction, significant bone loss may occur. Bone grafting restores adequate volume and density, ensuring secure implant placement, strength, and reducing treatment failure risk.
