Your dental implant treatment will occur in stages. After your consultation visit, you can schedule your implant procedure. That second visit focuses on the insertion of the implant or implants into the precise location or locations discussed at your initial session. After the implant procedure, you can expect two more sessions with Dr. Oh. The first will involve placing an abutment, a metal connector piece, on the top of each implant. At your final visit, you will receive your new artificial teeth, which are affixed to the abutment of your dental implant. In the best-case scenario, then, there are four sessions in our office. If you do not have sufficient bone tissue into which dental implants can be placed, you may require additional visits at the beginning of your course of treatment for bone grafting or other preparation.
