The traditional method is completed in several phases. First is the examination and treatment planning, followed by the implant placement surgery. The bone is allowed to heal completely and fuse with the implant before prosthetic teeth are added. On average, this method takes a year or more to complete. The newer and more advanced technique utilizes cutting-edge technology such as 3D CAT scans and improved design and treatment protocols. As a result, we can add your brand new teeth on the same day that we place the implants, greatly reducing the overall treatment time.
