Common Questions
How long do dental implants last?
With proper care, dental implants can last a lifetime. The crown attached to the implant typically lasts 10-15 years.
Is the implant procedure painful?
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, so you won't feel pain during treatment. Some discomfort during healing is normal and can be managed with medication.
Am I a candidate for dental implants?
Most people with good general and oral health are candidates. We'll evaluate your bone density and gum health to determine suitability.
