Dental Implants: frequently asked questions

How do I know whether dental implants are an option for me?

An examination is the starting point. Your dentist will review your oral health, jawbone and medical history before discussing whether implants or another tooth-replacement option may suit your needs.

How long does implant treatment take?

Treatment happens in stages, and healing time varies. Ask your dentist for a timeline based on your examination, including whether any additional treatment is needed before an implant can be placed.

What should I ask at an implant consultation?

Ask about alternatives, the stages of treatment, risks, recovery, ongoing care and a written cost estimate. Bring your medication list and any questions about your health or previous dental work.
