How long does treatment take?
Previous question:
What can you do if an implant does not work?
For routine cases, from the time of implant placement to the time of placing the first teeth, treatment times can vary between 6 weeks and 6 months. The availability of better bone can be used to decrease treatment time, whilst more time and care must be taken with poorer bone, which can therefore extend treatment times beyond six months.
If there is no reason to shorten the duration of your treatment then be prepared to wait - nobody loses an implant from being patient and allowing nature to take its course.
Next question:
Are the new teeth joined together?
