Consultation and Planning

Implant Placement Surgery
The procedure involves placing four dental implants under local or general anesthesia. A temporary prosthesis is then attached to the implants on the same day.
Healing Period
Over 3–6 months, the implants fuse with the jawbone in a process called osseointegration. Once healing is complete, the final prosthesis is custom-made and fitted.

- Avoid smoking and strenuous activities.
- Stick to soft foods initially and avoid chewing near the surgical site.
