How Long does it take to have an Implant done?

[Susan]

I am considering having one Implant done to replace a gap. Can you tell me how many months from start to finish, the whole procedure will take to complete?

Once an Implant is placed, we usually wait around 6-8 weeks for the implant to integrate with the jaw bone before we place the final crown over it.

If the Implant has required bone grafting as well, we would wait 3-6 months before we load the implant.

In this period of time, we usually make a temporary denture or an adhesive bridge to mask the gap.
