Implant Treatment Timeline

Patient education is an integral component of a successful Dental Implant procedure. Dr. Vaibhavi Patel and our outstanding doctors at VSP Dental want you to be informed at every stage of the process to help you experience the best possible results.

Our 5-Step Process

Complimentary Consultation

DAY ONE

We’ll assess your needs, examine your oral health, review your medical history, and cover your treatment options. We’ll also discuss the investment, financing options, and timeline from start to finish.

Pre-Procedure Exam

DAY ONE

If you elect to move forward, we’ll take a 3D CT Scan and create a photo-realistic 3D digitalization of your face and jaw area as well as make impressions of your teeth. This exam lasts around an hour using our state-of-the-art technology.

Surgery Day

2-14 DAYS AFTER PRE-OP EXAM

We begin by reviewing sedation options (IV or Oral). During the surgery, we’ll remove teeth if required and expertly place implants into the jaw bone. Your temporary, non-removable full set of teeth are attached. You’ll walk out of the office with implanted teeth and new, beautiful smile!

Post-Op Evaluation

1 WEEK AFTER SURGERY

To ensure our clients are on the path to optimal recovery, we conduct a full examination to evaluate proper healing, aesthetics, and implant functionality.

Deliver Final Prosthesis

3-6 MONTHS AFTER POST-OP EVALUATION

The doctor will permanently attach the final restoration and conduct a final evaluation of your bite and aesthetics. You'll leave with your new permanent smile and renewed sense of self-confidence you can enjoy for the rest of your life!

Your new, stunning smile starts here!
