A dental implant is a small titanium post that replaces the root of a missing tooth, holding a natural-looking crown firmly in place. At Dentalive in Sector 27, Nerul, we place single-tooth implants, multiple implants and full-arch solutions to restore your bite, your speech and your confidence. If you have lost a tooth to decay, gum disease or an accident, an implant is usually the closest thing to getting your natural tooth back.
An implant has three parts. The implant itself is a titanium screw that is placed into the jawbone, where it gradually fuses with the bone over a few months. A small connector called an abutment sits on top, and a custom-made crown is fixed onto that. Once it heals, the implant works like a normal tooth: you brush it, chew with it and care for it just as you would the rest of your teeth.
Unlike a denture, an implant does not move when you eat or speak, and unlike a bridge, it does not require the neighbouring healthy teeth to be filed down for support. That is why implants have become the preferred way to replace missing teeth for patients who are suitable for them.
You may be a candidate for a dental implant if any of these apply to you:
The best way to know for certain is a consultation, where the dentist examines your gums, checks the health and thickness of your jawbone, and takes an X-ray or scan.
One implant and one crown to replace a single missing tooth, without disturbing the teeth around it.
When several teeth in a row are missing, a few implants can support a fixed bridge, avoiding the need for an implant for every single tooth.
If you wear full dentures, a small number of implants can anchor them securely so they no longer slip while you eat or talk.
Using digital planning, the implant position is mapped in advance for greater precision, often with less discomfort and a quicker recovery.
With good oral hygiene and regular check-ups, dental implants can last many years and often a lifetime, while the crown on top may need replacing after a decade or more of use. Long-term success depends on healthy gums, controlled conditions such as diabetes, and not smoking. We will give you honest guidance about what you can expect in your specific case.
The cost of a dental implant in Nerul depends on several things: the number of teeth being replaced, the implant brand and crown material chosen, and whether any preparatory treatment such as a bone graft is needed. Because every mouth is different, we give you a clear, itemised estimate after your consultation rather than a one-size-fits-all figure, and we will explain any options that can make treatment more affordable.
Looking after an implant is much like looking after a natural tooth. Brush twice a day, clean between your teeth daily, avoid using your teeth to open packaging, and come in for your routine check-ups so we can keep an eye on the gum and bone around the implant. If you grind your teeth at night, we may suggest a night guard to protect your investment.
Missing teeth can be a major inconvenience, impacting not only your appearance but also your oral health and overall well-being. Fortunately, dental implants offer a revolutionary solution that can restore your smile to its full potential.
Dental implants are considered a permanent solution, lasting for decades with proper care. While dentures and bridges may require frequent replacements, implants offer a long-term investment in your oral health and save you money in the long run.
When you lose a tooth, the jawbone beneath it begins to deteriorate. Dental implants stimulate the jawbone, preventing bone loss and preserving your facial structure. This not only maintains your youthful appearance but also protects the health of your remaining teeth.
A dental implant is simply a titanium device implanted in the jaw bone to support, or attach, an artificial tooth or teeth.. the bone in your jaw needs to grow onto them and fuse to them. This will mostly take a few months.
Implants are a safe, well-established treatment.
Implant treatments range from the immediate replacement of an extracted tooth to over six months when jaw surgery and bone grafting is needed. The average treatment is three to six months. Most of the time required to complete implant treatment is taken up just waiting for the bone to fuse completely with the implant. This usually takes a few months and goes on below the gum line without any feeling or awareness. In more complex cases treatment may be longer
There is no hiding the fact that dental implants are expensive but it is necessary to understand that the consumer is not buying a product but rather a service Dental implants are “medical devices” implanted into living tissue. A dental implant has the potential to last a lifetime. This living tissue also is home to nerves, blood vessels and sinuses. The placement of dental implants is both art and science. When one considers all of the above factors, cost seems a little less important.
Anyone who is healthy enough to undergo a tooth extraction is likely a suitable candidate for dental implants. However, these are certain contraindications that may complicate or prohibit implant treatment. Patients with certain conditions, such as chronic diseases, heavy smoking or alcohol abuse may not be candidates for implants. Your doctor will determine whether or not this treatment is right for you after a complete physical exam and evaluation of your medical history.
