What is an Dental implant?

A dental implant is a metal screw that is placed into the jawbone to serve as an anchor on which new teeth can be placed. After the implant is put in, the bone then grows around it over the next 2-6 months. Then the new tooth can be placed on it for a natural looking and feeling result.

Are Implants Painful?

The procedure itself is not painful since it is done under sedation or anesthetic.  After the procedure there is some discomfort for a few days, but it is usually not extreme.  Painkillers can help bring relief.

Getting Implants - Step by Step

1) You will be examined and the dentist will take an x-ray to determine if there is enough bone for implants. 
2) When the implantation procedure begins, a local anesthetic is administered.  Then a hole is made in the jaw and the implant is screwed in.  An abutment is attached to the implant.
3) 2-6 months later, the crown is attached onto the implant, and the procedure is complete.

Success Rates

When done correctly, the success rates for implants on nonsmoking patients are above 90%. Patients who smoke have a significantly lower success rate of around 70%. Therefore, smokers should be prepared to quit for at least 2 months after implant surgery.

Costs

Implants done in the USA or UK are generally at least 2500 USD or 2000 GBP respectively. However, at clinics partnered with VisitandCare.com in Mexico, Eastern Europe and elsewhere, implants can be done by qualified dentists for as little as 900 USD or 600 Euros.
