The Implant Procedure, Step by Step
Most patients split treatment across two trips separated by 4–6 months.
Placement
Trip 1 – Day 1–2
Titanium post placed into jawbone under local anaesthetic. The procedure takes 45–90 minutes. Some clinics offer IV sedation for anxious patients. Extraction and bone grafting are done in the same session if needed.
Osseointegration
4–6 months at home
Bone fuses with the titanium post. You return home during this phase. Healing is monitored remotely via X-rays sent to SmileJet. Your surgeon checks progress and confirms when you are ready for trip 2.
Crown Fitting
Trip 2 – Day 1–2
Abutment is placed, then a custom zirconia crown is fitted. Crowns are colour-matched and polished in the clinic's in-house lab. Most adjustments are completed the same day.
All-on-4 vs All-on-6
Full-arch replacement using implant-supported fixed bridges.
