How long does it usually take to get a dental implant?

It varies: On whether you need grafting, if a tooth is still present and so on. Often the time it takes to actually place the implant is 30-60 minutes. Once it is in, then we typically wait for 3-4 months before placing the crown. Sometimes this can happen faster.

Possibly 6+ months: The healing process is the main reason it takes so long to get the completed dental implant. Normally, the tooth has to be extracted (if it wasn't already, ) and then the implant and bone filler has to be placed- which can take up to 3 months. If the implant is an upper one, where the sinus may have to be surgically lifted to avoid placing the implant in the sinus cavity, it can take longer.

Dental implant: In many cases a dental implant can be placed in one day. Sometimes a healing period of 2-3 months is required before an implant can be placed. Once the implant is placed, it requires 2-4 months to heal. In some situations the implant and temporary tooth (teeth) can all be done in one day!

Depends: It all depends on the volume and the density of the jaw bone where the dental implant is being placed. Assuming that the patient is healthy with no medical issues, a dental implant can be placed within a day. If bone grafting is required first, then it can be placed 4-6 months after the bone grafting procedure. Placement of a single dental implant procedure usually takes 10-15 min.

Not long: The surgery itself for one implant may take 30 - 60 minutes. From the time you sit down to when you get out of the chair. Often the longest time is waiting for the anesthesia and/or completing the paperwork. The surgery itself is often only minutes in the hands of a skilled surgeon.

Depends....: In some cases an extraction and implant can be completed in one appointment that can usually take between 1-3 hours. Depending on the area that will have the surgery done, the total time from implant placement to restoration with a crown can take from 1 day to 6 months. Because of the great variety in situations there is no great answer to your question. Every implant case needs a full workup.

Depends: Depends on the situation. Has the tooth been missing for awhile, lost because of trauma or infection, large tooth . Your specific situation needs to be evaluated to determine the best form of treatment for you.

Depends: From start to finish with a permanent crown it can take from 2 motnhs up to 6 months. If an immediate implant is placed the day the tooth is removed and there is excellent implant stability i routinely have my restoring dentists place the crowns after 2-3 months. If the implant is not as stable they will place the crowns at 4-6 months. Every case is different.

One implant: One implant takes less than an hour to place it with local anesthesia. You will need to wait about three months before your dentist. Can make the cap on your implant. All the best!

Depends: For a standard case, it can be anywhere from 3-6 months. If bone grafting is needed, this can add another 6 months or more to treatment time.

Individual specific : Placement of a dental implant varies on a person to person nature. Is the extraction of a tooth involved, is a surgical stent being used, is grafting necessary, what type of anesthesia is being used, the kind of dental implant, will the implant be receiving a temporary directly after placement, etc... So the answer to your question is best answered by the doctor who knows your circumstances.

It depends: It depends on the case, bone quality and location. If, there isn't enough bone height in the posterior area; often a sinus lift is recommended and a bone graft placed. Once it heals; 6 months an implant can be surgically placed and allowed to heal once again with a restoration is placed.

Dental implant time: Most often the bone requires 3-4 months to achieve adequate implant stability and osteointegration. It is a fairly precise timeline, however, your actual timeline may vary depending on the complexity of your treatment and your physiological status. Hope it helps.
