IMPLANTOLOGY AT MED RX DENTAL CENTRE
Dental Implants in Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru
A permanent, natural-looking replacement for missing teeth, placed by a certified implantologist using precise, evidence-based technique.
What Are Dental Implants?
A dental implant is a titanium post surgically placed into the jawbone to replace the root of a missing tooth. Once it fuses with the bone through a process called osseointegration, a custom crown is attached on top, giving you a replacement tooth that looks, feels, and functions like a natural one.
Unlike bridges or dentures, implants do not rely on adjacent teeth for support and help preserve jawbone density that is otherwise lost when a tooth goes unreplaced for an extended period.
Why Patients Choose Implants Over Bridges or Dentures
- Preserves jawbone: The implant post stimulates the jawbone the way a natural root does, preventing the bone loss that follows tooth loss.
- Does not affect healthy teeth: A bridge requires grinding down neighboring teeth for support. An implant stands on its own.
- Fixed, not removable: No taking it out at night or using adhesives, unlike a denture.
- Built to last: With proper care, implants can last decades, often making them more cost-effective than repeated bridge or denture replacements over time.
- Looks and functions naturally: You bite, chew, and speak the way you did with your natural tooth.
The Dental Implant Procedure at MED Rx Dental Centre
- Consultation and 3D imaging: Dr. Khadir assesses your bone density and oral health, and plans the implant position precisely using digital imaging.
- Implant placement: The titanium post is placed into the jawbone under local anesthesia in a single, focused visit.
- Healing and osseointegration: Over roughly three to six months, the implant fuses with the surrounding bone to form a stable foundation.
- Abutment and crown placement: A custom crown, matched to the shade and shape of your natural teeth, is fitted onto the implant.
- Follow-up care: Scheduled check-ins confirm the implant is healthy, stable, and functioning well long-term.
Are You a Candidate for Dental Implants?
Dental implants are suitable for most adults with adequate jawbone density and good general oral health, whether you are missing a single tooth, several teeth, or need a full-arch replacement. Dr. Khadir evaluates bone quality with digital imaging before recommending the right implant approach for your case, including options for patients with lower bone density.
Placed by a Certified Implantologist
Dr. Khadir, BDS, Certified Implantologist and founder of MED Rx Dental Centre, has advanced training and certification specifically in dental implantology. Every implant procedure is planned around the unique anatomy of each patient, using digital diagnostics to keep placement precise, safe, and predictable.
Dental Implant FAQs
Does getting a dental implant hurt?
The procedure is done under local anesthesia, so you should not feel pain during placement. Mild soreness for a few days afterward is normal and manageable with standard aftercare guidance.
How long does the whole process take?
From initial placement to the final crown, the process typically spans three to six months, since the implant needs time to fuse with the jawbone before it can safely support a crown.
How long do dental implants last?
With good oral hygiene and regular dental checkups, implants can last decades, and in many cases, a lifetime.
What if I do not have enough jawbone?
Dr. Khadir assesses bone density with digital imaging beforehand. In cases of lower bone density, options such as bone grafting can be discussed during your consultation.
