Tooth extraction and dental implant: 

Dental Extractions: 

Extraction means removing a tooth from its socket. You need this when:

  • Tooth decay is too severe to repair
  • Gum disease has loosened the tooth
  • The tooth is fractured beyond repair
  • Wisdom teeth are impacted
  • You need space for orthodontic treatment

Types of extractions: 

Simple Extraction

Removes visible teeth above the gum line. Takes 15-30 minutes with local anesthesia.

Recovery: 3-7 days

Surgical Extraction

Removes teeth below the gum line or broken at the root. Requires small incision.

Recovery: 7-14 days

Wisdom Tooth Removal

Removes impacted or problematic wisdom teeth causing pain and infection.

Recovery: 7-10 days

Dental implants: 

Implants are titanium posts surgically placed in your jawbone. They replace missing tooth roots and support artificial teeth. Implants look, feel, and function like natural teeth.

Why Choose Implants?

  • Permanent: Last 20+ years with proper care
  • Natural appearance: Match your existing teeth perfectly
  • Preserve bone: Prevent jawbone loss
  • Don’t affect other teeth: Stand alone without grinding adjacent teeth
  • Stable: Never slip or click like dentures
  • Easy care: Brush and floss like normal teeth

The Implant Process

Step 1: Consultation

Dr. Hayat examines your mouth, takes X-rays, and creates your treatment plan.

Step 2: Extraction (If Needed)

Damaged tooth removed. Healing takes 6-8 weeks.

Step 3: Bone Graft (If Required)

Adds bone material if your jaw needs strengthening. Heals in 3-6 months.

Step 4: Implant Placement

Titanium post surgically inserted into the jawbone. Takes 1-2 hours per implant.

Step 5: Healing

Bone grows around the implant over 3-6 months (osseointegration).

Step 6: Abutment

Connector piece attached to the implant. Heals in 2 weeks.

Step 7: Crown

Custom tooth attached to abutment. Your new tooth is complete.

Total Timeline: 3-6 months from start to finish
