Hello,
Implants are now done on a regular basis by Implantologists.Good quality CBCT x-rays are a must to evaluate various parameters before implant placement.If all the guidelines allows the implant placement,then it is a relatively safe procedure.It is done under Local anaesthesia.A titanium screw of pre-determined width and length is placed into the bone,after which it is secured with sutures.The implant needs to osseointegrate with the bone which may take about 3-4 months,after which the crown is fixed.
