Stay & travel
From inquiry to your 12-month review
Most patients fly home on day 3 or 4. Office work with a hat is fine after day 10; client-facing work most patients delay until day 14. Final result settles between months 9 and 12.
Digital records sent
Upload your CBCT scan (or arrange one locally). Implantologist confirms bone volume and plans the 3D position of the post.
3D CT scan & surgical planning
On-site scan if not pre-uploaded. Surgeon reviews bone density and confirms implant diameter and length.
Implant placement
Titanium post placed under local anaesthesia, often with a healing cap or temporary restoration fitted the same day. Approx. 45–90 min per implant.
Post-op check & fly home
Swelling and mild aching are normal. Soft-food diet and chlorhexidine rinse protocol issued. Antibiotics course in your bag.
Osseointegration at home
The titanium post bonds with your jawbone. No clinic visits needed — periodic check-in photos sent to your implantologist.
Abutment & impression
Healing cap removed. Abutment attached. Digital or physical impression taken for the permanent crown.
Crown fitting & final check
Lab-fabricated ceramic crown cemented or screwed. Bite adjusted and photographed. Fly home same day.
The questions you'd ask a friend who'd already done it
How long does it last?
With good oral hygiene, dental implants can last decades.
Why two visits?
The implant must fuse with the jawbone (3-6 months) before the final crown is placed.
Do I need a bone graft?
Only if bone density is insufficient; this is assessed from your CT scan.
