Understanding Dental Implants: What Are They?

A dental implant system generally consists of three key components:

Dental Implant Post: A small, screw-shaped post (usually titanium) surgically embedded into your jawbone, acting as an artificial tooth root.
Abutment: A connector piece screwed onto the implant post, which extends above the gum line to hold the crown.
Crown: The artificial tooth (often made of zirconia for natural aesthetics) that is custom-made and fitted over the abutment.

Types of Missing Teeth Replacements Offered at HeySmile

HeySmile Dental Clinic provides comprehensive solutions for all types of tooth loss:

Single Missing Tooth

Replaced with an Implant Crown.

Multiple Missing Teeth

Restored with an Implant Bridge (supported by two or more implants). We also offer combinations of implant bridges and single implant crowns.

Full Arch Missing Teeth (Full Mouth Dental Implants)

All-on-4® / Pro Arch + Hybrid Bridges: A revolutionary technique using just four strategically placed implants to support a full arch of fixed teeth.
Implant-Supported Overdentures: Removable dentures securely anchored by implants for enhanced stability.
Full Dental Implant Bridges: Full implant bridges provide a strong foundation and natural-looking aesthetics, similar to having a complete new set of fixed teeth.

The Dental Implant Process at HeySmile Dental Clinic:
Your Journey to a New Smile

The dental implant process typically involves two main stages, utilizing advanced digital technologies for precision and optimal results:

First Stage – Dental Implant Surgery (Placement of Implant Post):

Visit 1 (1 hour): Comprehensive X-ray, consultation with your specialist, and detailed treatment planning.
Visit 2 (1-3 hours, depending on number of implants): Surgical placement of the implant post(s) into your jawbone.
Visit 3 (30 minutes): Post-operative check-up and stitch removal.
Healing Period (2-6 months or more): A crucial “osseointegration” period where the implant fuses with your jawbone. The exact time depends on your bone condition and implant type.

Second Stage – Dental Prosthesis (Building Your New Teeth):

Once the implant post is securely integrated, custom prostheses (artificial teeth) are built and fitted over the implant posts. The number of visits at this stage varies based on the complexity (single crown, bridge, full arch).

Bone Grafting for Dental Implants:

If your jawbone is insufficient, bone grafting may be recommended:

Major Block Bone Graft: May be done before the first stage.
Minor Bone Grafts: Can be performed during the first or second stage.

HeySmile's Commitment to Quality: Our Implant Brand Systems

While many dental implant brands exist, HeySmile Dental Clinic adheres to strict principles when selecting implant systems for our patients’ safety and high success rates:

Research & Development: We prioritize systems with continuous advancements.
Quality Control: We consider the production facilities and company reputation for product quality and safety standards.
Patents & Licensing: Ensuring proper intellectual property and compliance.

For your peace of mind and the highest success rates, our team at HeySmile Dental Clinic uses established implant systems from South Korea (Osstem, Dentium), USA (Hiossen), and Switzerland (Straumann).

Types of Dental Implant Procedures at HeySmile

HeySmile Dental Clinic offers various implant procedures tailored to your needs and timeline:

Conventional Procedure

(Tooth removal + healing time + 1st implant post + 2nd stage prostheses).

Immediate Dental Implant Procedure

(Immediate tooth removal + 1st implant post placement – no waiting time after extraction).

Immediate Load Dental Implant Procedure

(Reduced waiting time between 1st implant post placement and 2nd stage prostheses – in selective cases).

Advanced Digital Workflow

HeySmile Dental Clinic is proud to utilize a fully digital dental implant prosthesis laboratory. This allows us to fabricate custom abutments and all-zirconia crowns over implants, providing metal-free, highly aesthetic, and natural-looking results with precise shade matching to your surrounding teeth.

Is it Painful to Get a Dental Implant at HeySmile?

A comfortable experience is our priority. With advances in techniques and technology, dental implant procedures are now quicker and significantly less invasive. Most of our patients at HeySmile Dental Clinic report very little discomfort during the process. Local anesthesia is routinely used during the implant surgery to ensure you feel no pain.

For patients who experience dental anxiety, HeySmile Dental Clinic offers options for sedative dentistry (e.g., oral sedation or IV sedation) to ensure a relaxed and stress-free treatment.

After your dental implant surgery, you might experience some mild soreness for the first few days. Your HeySmile dentist will provide detailed post-care instructions and prescribe pain relief medication as needed.

Common Questions About Dental Implants

How long does a dental implant procedure take?

Most conventional treatments take 2 to 6 months for completion. The implant post surgery itself typically involves 2-3 visits over 5-7 days for the first stage.

Can implants really be done in one day?

The term “one-day implants” usually refers to placing the implant post immediately after tooth removal in the same surgical visit. It does not mean the entire procedure (including the final crown) is completed in one day, as lab work and healing time are still required.

Can I get a teeth transplant instead of a dental implant?

Teeth transplants are generally not performed due to various limitations. Dental implants remain the preferred and recommended method due to their high success rates and benefits like preventing further tooth decay in the restored area.
