Q. How long does a implant procedure take and the pain associated with it last ? i am considering replacing a front tooth which is currently a crown. regards,
A. It is best to consider times of 6 months for the upper jaw and 3 moths for the lower. it may be shorter in some cases.
The placement surgery takes 30-60 minutes, pain is not major issue, some patients find the sensation uncomfortable, but would still repeat the experience. If you have concerns you can be sedated. After wards 1-2 weeks of local tenderness is not uncommon (it is controlled by analgesics like paracetamol) bruising can also occur.
A no fee personal clinical assesment is available at the practice.
