Dental Implants in Kuala Lumpur

Dental implants offer many advantages, making them a popular choice for tooth replacement. They look and feel natural, helping you smile with confidence. Implants also preserve your jawbone, preventing changes to your facial structure. They allow you to eat, speak, and laugh comfortably, and they’re very durable, lasting for many years with proper care.

A good candidate for dental implants will need a healthy gums and enough jawbone to support them. If your jawbone isn’t strong enough, procedures like bone grafts might be necessary. Dental implants are generally not suitable for younger patients because their jawbones are still growing. Most healthy adults can consider dental implants as a tooth replacement option.

Children and teenagers are not considered as younger people’s jaws are still growing.

Here are the steps of the dental implant procedures:

Step 1: Dentist Examination

• Our dentist will take X-rays and possibly a 3D scan of your jaw.
• They’ll carefully review your dental history and overall health.
• Discuss your treatment options and ask any questions you have.

Step 2: Implant Surgery

• You’ll receive local anesthesia to numb the area.
• The dentist will carefully place the implant into your jawbone.
• In some cases, a temporary tooth may be placed on top of the implant while it heals.

Step 3: Healing Time

• Your jawbone will grow around the implant, securing it firmly in place. This usually takes several weeks.
• Your stitches will be removed after about a week.

Step 4: Creating Your New Tooth

• While your implant is healing, your dentist and a dental lab will work together to create a custom-made crown that perfectly matches your other teeth.

Step 5: Attaching Your New Tooth

• Once your implant has fully healed, your dentist will securely attach the custom-made crown to the implant.
• You can now enjoy eating, speaking, and smiling confidently!
