Dental implants look and function very much like real teeth. How the surgery is performed depends on the type of implant and the condition of your jawbone. But all dental implant surgery occurs in stages and involves several procedures. The entire process can take many months. There are many reasons why your dentist may recommend dental implants and many types of procedures.
