The process

What happens

An implant is a small titanium post placed in the jawbone, where it bonds with the bone and supports a crown, bridge or denture. Implants don’t rely on the neighbouring teeth, and they help keep the jawbone healthy where a tooth is missing.

  1. 01

    Consultation

    We examine your mouth, take the X-rays or scans needed to check the bone, and explain whether implants suit you.

  2. 02

    Placement

    Under local anaesthetic, the implant is placed in the jawbone.

  3. 03

    Healing

    Over the next few months the bone bonds with the implant. Where suitable, you can wear a temporary tooth in the meantime.

  4. 04

    Your new tooth

    A custom crown, bridge or denture is made and fixed onto the implant.

Questions

Common Questions

How long do implants last?

With good cleaning and regular check-ups, implants can last many years. The crown on top may need replacing after years of wear.

I’m visiting Lahore for a few weeks. Can I have an implant during my trip?

The implant can often be placed during one trip, but the bone needs a few months to heal before the final tooth is fitted. Message us before you travel and we’ll plan the visits around your dates.
