Q: What does the dental implant procedure involve?

The average dental implant procedure takes 3-4 visits. The first visit is to X-ray the area and take an impression for a surgical guide and a temporary prosthesis to cover the implant. The next visit is to place the dental implant. Local anesthesia is applied to the area (any additional sedation is no longer necessary unless deemed by the dentist). The dentist will then make a minor incision to place the implant. The implant is placed into the jaw bone and the area will then be covered with sutures. The procedure is usually completed with minor pain. You will next return in approximately 3 months to begin creating the porcelain crown to place over the dental implant.
