1. I lost one tooth. Is replacing it really necessary?

Yes. A missing tooth leads to bone loss and shifting of nearby teeth. Replacing it early prevents future complications.

2. Why is an implant better than a bridge for one tooth?

A bridge requires cutting healthy adjacent teeth. An implant replaces only the missing tooth and preserves surrounding structures. An implant is aimed to last a lifetime. Bridges has limited life. Most of the implant practice nowadays is giving solutions for patients with failed bridges.

3. How long does a single tooth implant take?

Surgery is usually short. The full treatment timeline depends on the bone condition and healing requirements, which are explained after evaluation.

4. Will the implant look like a natural tooth?

Yes. When planned correctly, implant crowns closely match natural teeth in appearance, feel, and function.

5. Can a single implant be done painlessly?

Yes. Procedures are performed under local anesthesia or sedation. Most patients report minimal discomfort.
