DENTAL IMPLANT
If you have a gap in your smile or a missing tooth, you may be wondering if it possible to fix. While you may be able to hide it, ignoring it can cause some serious potential risks to your oral health, which is why it’s important to fill the gap as soon as possible. In the past, the only options for missing teeth were bridges and dentures – but not today. One of the best ways to fill in missing teeth is with implant dentistry. If you’re missing a tooth or teeth, here’s why it’s important to get it filled as soon as possible and why dental implants are the right choice.
It’s important to replace missing teeth as soon as possible to ensure that the surrounding teeth do not shift into that gap. If this happens, it can cause a number of oral health issues and even lead to further tooth loss. Dental Implants are a type of dental treatment that is intended to replace a natural tooth that has been significantly damaged with a “replacement” tooth. Dental implant placement surgery is a revolutionary alternative to denture, partial denture, or dental bridge, as it allows for chewing all types of food! And do not require altering healthy neighbouring teeth or tissue for support. They function just like a real tooth.
DENTAL IMPLANT SURGERY PROCEDURE & STEPS
Dental implant procedure in Golden Smile Dent is an dental surgery performed in stages, with some healing time in between treatments.
Dental implant surgery involves several steps:
- Removal of a damaged tooth (Your dental specialist will also ask you about any medical conditions you have and all the medications you are taking, your dentist may prescribe antibiotics prior to the surgery to avoid infection)
- Bone grafting (jawbone preparation), if required
- Placement of a dental implant
- Bone growth and healing
- Placement of abutment
- Placement of an artificial tooth
Dental implants are considered to be the highest standard for replacing missing teeth or a single tooth due to their long-term health benefits and the improvement in function of the teeth and gums. There are several ways dental implants can be used as a replacement for missing teeth. The specific type of implant procedure will be determined by your implant dentist on an individual basis.

Overall, the dental implant process may take 15 days or 3 months from beginning to the end. A large part of this time is left for healing and letting new bone grow in your jaw. In some situations, certain steps can be combined – depending on the specific procedure performed or the materials used.
1.When Bone Grafting is Required
If your jawbone is too soft or not thick enough, a bone grafting procedure may be required before you can have the implant placed into the jaw. When you chew, a strong pressure is exerted on your bone, and if it isn’t able to support the implant, the surgery is likely to fail. A bone graft can be used to create a more solid base for the implant.
There are a few bone grafting materials that can be used for this purpose:
- Natural bone graft: for example, bone from another location in your body
- Synthetic bone graft: a bone-substitute material
You may have to wait several months for the bone graft to heal enough to support a dental implant. Sometimes, you may need only minimal bone grafting, which can be completed at the same time the tooth is extracted or during the implant surgery.
The condition of your bone will largely determine the specifics of the entire dental implant process for you. It may take up to a few months for the bone that has been transplanted to grow enough amounts of the new bone to support an implant. Overall, the condition of your jawbone will determine the following steps.
2. Placing the Dental Implant
During the oral surgery to place the implant post, your oral surgeon in Golden Smile makes a small cut in order to open the gum and reveal the bone. Then, the implant dentist drills holes into the bone, where the metal post will be later placed. The post is implanted deep into the bone, as it will serve as the tooth root.
At this stage, you will still have a gap in place of your missing tooth. If needed, a type of temporary partial denture can be placed for appearance(recommend to not have temporary for better healing). It can be removed for cleaning or while you sleep.
3. Waiting for Bone Growth
After the metal post has been placed in your bone, the process of osseointegration begins. This means that the jaw bone unites with the dental implant surface. Some of implant brands and models gets faster osseointegration due to their SLA surface treatment. Our dentist will inform you about all highest quality implants brands and models when you contact.. This process can take several months, yet it is crucial, as it helps to provide a strong base for your artificial tooth – exactly as natural roots of your teeth.
The osseointegration timeline can look different for different individuals based on factors such as the type of procedure performed, the density of the jawbone, and the individual’s overall health. We have outlined a general osseointegration timeline below.
➢ Immediate Post-surgery (24-72 hours after surgery): Initial healing is characterized by the formation of a blood clot at the surgery site. This can cause swelling, bruising, and discomfort. Pain relievers can be used to manage post-surgery pain. Some painkillers can have side effects and aren’t recommended for people with certain health problems. When prescribing pain medications to our patients, we will ask if any health issues they have.
➢ First Week: The initial healing phase continues. Swelling and discomfort gradually decrease over the first week after surgery. Patients must eat soft foods and avoid disturbing the surgery site.
➢ 2-6 Weeks: Soft tissue around the implant site starts healing. Patients should maintain oral hygiene during this period to prevent infection.
➢ 6 Weeks to 3 Months: The implant starts to bond with the jawbone. This marks the beginning of osseointegration. During this period, patients should see their dental surgeons regularly for checkups. Regular checkups give surgeons the opportunity to monitor progress.
➢ 3-6 Months: Osseointegration continues during this period. For some people, this process may be quicker. As a result, the next phase of the treatment (which may involve placing the abutment and crown) may occur sooner. For people who are experiencing bone loss in their teeth or individuals who need bone grafts, the process may take longer.
➢ 6 Months and Beyond: Once osseointegration is complete, the abutment and crown can be placed.
4. Placing the Abutment
When the bone growth process is complete, you may require another surgery to place the abutment, or the part where the crown will attach in the future. This minor oral surgery is usually takes very short time and done with local anesthesia.
Implant Success Depends on Surgical Skill

Should I have a dental bridge or an implant?
A dental bridge is an alternative treatment for missing tooth issue. Dental bridges look aesthetically as same as the implant treatment in the end. However, dental bridges require neighboring teeth to be filed down since these teeth are used as the supporting pillars for the bridge, otherwise roots are moving neighbouring and another risk to loose teeth which are good. On implant treatment, there is no need to file down the neighbouring teeth. Therefore, its highly recommended to have dental implant treatment if your bone structure is eligible for it. Even if your bone is not enough then bone graft or sinus lifting should be done.
Dedicated dentist with most experience is very important key to success on dental implant process. Main reason is choosen right dental implant brand and right dimensions according to different patient case needs good experience not general dentistry but must be dedicated professionals as we done in Golden Smile clinics.

EXCELLENT Based on 393 reviews Khaled Fouad3. December, 2024 I just had my crown and 2 fillings. A week ago, I had a bad experience because the doctor kept me waiting. I wrote a bad review at 2200. In the morning, I saw a WhatsApp message from Mr. Serkan, the owner of the clinic, apologizing for the inconvenience. The message was sent at 1am in the morning. The mere fact that he read the review, investigated the situation, got my number, and then me a message, is the definition (in my book) of a customer centric business. Today, I came on time and Dr. Enes was waiting for me. He is a professional dentist and he did an excellent job. He also gave me a discount for the inconvenience caused in my last appointment. Golden Smile has shown me the true meaning of customer care. Michael Briggs2.
