Dental implants are a permanent solution for replacing missing or damaged teeth. They involve surgically placing a titanium post into the jawbone, which acts as a root for a replacement tooth or bridge. Dental implants look, feel, and function like natural teeth, offering a long-lasting solution to restore your smile and improve your oral health.

Dental implants offer numerous benefits for individuals looking to replace missing or damaged teeth
Whether you’re missing one tooth or several, dental implants provide a durable, aesthetic solution that improves both function and appearance.
Several dental implant options are available, depending on the patient's specific needs and oral health. Common types and techniques include
A single implant is used to replace one missing tooth, providing a permanent and natural-looking replacement without affecting the surrounding teeth.
For patients missing multiple teeth, an implant-supported bridge can replace several teeth using only a few implants, offering a stable and cost-effective solution.
This technique involves placing four or six implants to support a full arch of replacement teeth, providing a complete restoration for patients with significant tooth loss.
Mini implants are smaller in diameter than traditional implants and are often used in patients with insufficient bone density for standard implants. They can be used to stabilize dentures or replace smaller teeth.
These implants are longer and anchored in the cheekbone (zygoma), providing an option for patients with severe bone loss who are not candidates for traditional implants.

Dental implants are titanium posts surgically placed in the jawbone to replace missing teeth and support crowns, bridges, or dentures.
With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime. The crown or bridge attached to the implant may need to be replaced after 10-15 years.
The procedure is typically performed under local anesthesia or sedation, so you should not feel pain during the surgery. Some discomfort is normal during recovery but can be managed with medication.
The surgery usually takes 1-2 hours per implant, depending on the complexity of the case.
You will need to follow a soft food diet for the first few days after surgery. Your dentist will provide specific dietary guidelines for your recovery.
You may be a good candidate if you have healthy gums, sufficient bone density, and are committed to maintaining good oral hygiene.
Risks include infection, nerve damage, implant failure, and sinus issues. Your surgeon will discuss all potential risks during your consultation.
The cost varies depending on the location, number of implants, and any additional procedures needed. Prices start from around $1,000 per implant in India, $1,200 in Turkey, $1,500 in Thailand, $2,500 in South Korea and $3,500 per implant, in Australia.
Dental implants are typically not covered by insurance, but Healthcation offers easy financing options to help make the procedure more affordable.
Most patients can return to normal activities within a few days. Full healing and integration of the implant with the jawbone usually take 3-6 months.
If you have insufficient bone density, your dentist may recommend a bone graft to provide a stable foundation for the implant.
You will need to follow your dentist’s pre-operative instructions, which may include avoiding certain medications, stopping smoking, and maintaining good oral hygiene.
In some cases, same-day implants are possible, but most patients will need to wait for the implant to integrate with the bone before placing the final crown or bridge.
