A dental implant replaces a missing tooth root with a titanium post, topped with a crown that bites and looks like a natural tooth. Assessed, planned, and placed under Dr. Pooja Biradar-Motagi.
An implant is a small titanium post placed into the jawbone where a tooth root used to be. Once it integrates with the bone, a crown is attached on top — restoring the look and function of the missing tooth without relying on neighbouring teeth for support, the way a bridge does.
Patients missing one or more teeth, or with loose, ill-fitting dentures, often consider implants. Whether you're a candidate depends on jawbone density and gum health — confirmed at a consultation, not assumed in advance. If your tooth can still be saved, we will also talk you through root canal treatment before recommending extraction.
Replaces one missing tooth without affecting the teeth next to it.
Replaces several missing teeth, either individually or supporting a bridge.
A complete plan for patients missing most or all teeth in one or both jaws.
We assess bone density and gum health to confirm candidacy and plan placement.
The titanium post is placed under local anaesthesia.
After the implant integrates with the bone, a custom crown is fitted on top.
Mild swelling or discomfort for a few days after placement is normal. Healing time before the crown can be fitted varies by patient and is confirmed during follow-up visits. Regular brushing, flossing around the implant, and routine check-ups help it last.
Most patients with adequate jawbone density and healthy gums are candidates, but this needs to be confirmed with an exam and imaging — not every case qualifies without preparation such as bone grafting.
From placement to the final crown typically spans a few months, since the implant needs time to integrate with the jawbone before it can support a crown. Your exact timeline depends on your healing.
The placement procedure is done under local anaesthesia. Mild swelling and discomfort for a few days afterward is normal and manageable with prescribed medication.
With good oral hygiene and regular check-ups, implants are designed to be a long-term solution, though individual results vary and depend on maintenance.
A single implant replaces one missing tooth. All-on-4 uses four implants to support a full arch of replacement teeth for patients missing most or all teeth in one jaw — we'll confirm which applies to your situation at consultation.
