About dental implants
Key points
- An implant replaces a tooth root with a post in the jawbone. A crown goes on top once the bone has healed.
- Most cases need two trips, because the bone usually takes 3 to 6 months to heal before the crown goes on.
- A bone graft adds at least four months, so get a 3D scan reviewed before you book flights.
- The number of implants, grafts, the implant system, the crown and the scans all change the price. Compare quotes line by line.
- Keep the implant brand and model details. Your dentist at home needs them for repairs.
