Dental Implantsin Parel, Mumbai
What is a dental implant?
A dental implant is a small titanium post placed in the jawbone to replace the root of a missing tooth. Once it heals and bonds with the bone, a crown is fixed on top. Implants don't rely on neighbouring teeth for support, and they feel and function much like natural teeth. Suitability depends on your bone and gum health.
Who is Dental Implants for?
It may help if you notice any of these:
- One or more missing teeth
- People who don't want removable dentures
- Those who want to avoid trimming healthy teeth for a bridge
- Adults with adequate bone and healthy gums
Only a dental check-up can confirm what you need. These signs are a guide, not a diagnosis.

Healing and how long it takes

- Soft foods and gentle cleaning around the area are advised while it heals; avoid smoking, which can slow healing.
- The implant needs a few months to bond with the bone before the final crown is fitted.
- Regular check-ups and good cleaning around the implant help it last.

Dental Implants: common questions
Implant placement is done under local anaesthesia. Some swelling or discomfort for a few days afterwards is normal and usually manageable.
Most healthy adults are. Bone quantity, gum health, smoking and some medical conditions affect suitability — Dr. Pooja will assess this at your consultation.
Typically a few months from placement to the final crown, because the implant needs time to bond with the bone.
