Unless you have gross lack of bone and gum tissue, the dental implant process is very simple...

 

Step 1.  Installation of the dental implant device

A dental implant is surgically placed where the tooth was removed.

 


Step 2. Installation of the implant abutment

(usually carried out at periodontist's office)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

An 'abutment' is placed onto the implant after bone heals sufficiently.
