Treatment Steps
Anaesthetic is used to make the procedure as comfortable as possible.
You could also request for general anaesthesia (put to sleep) if you do not want to be awake during the procedure. The dentist will then remove any damaged teeth that cannot be saved.
After that, a minimum of 4 implants will be placed in strategic locations in your jaw to provide the optimum support for the new teeth. A set of custom-fabricated temporary teeth will then be attached to the implants.
Following a minimum 2-3 months healing period, your implants would have typically bonded to the jaw bone.
