You\u2019ll have to get minor oral surgery in order to receive the implants that will keep your denture fixed in place, after all! So how long will it take to get your new smile? Your implant dentist in Eatontown will have the best answer to that question, but while you wait for your consultation, you can still get a good idea of what to expect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The 4-Step Implant Denture Process<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before \u201cgetting into the weeds,\u201d it can be helpful to have a brief overview of what the implant denture process entails. Here\u2019s how the treatment breaks down into four steps:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Step 1: Consultation. <\/strong>You and your implant dentist will meet to review your health history, talk about your treatment needs and goals, and evaluate the state of your oral health.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Step 2: Implant Surgery. <\/strong>This is often scheduled as a separate appointment, and is when your implant dentist will surgically place your dental implants along your jawbone.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Step 3: Osseointegration. <\/strong>During post-op, your jawbone and implants will fuse together via a natural process known as \u201cosseointegration.\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Step 4: Restoration. <\/strong>You\u2019ll return to the office to complete your treatment by receiving the denture that will be connected to your implants.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Average Treatment Timeline for Implant Dentures<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>All told, the implant denture treatment process typically takes a little over three to six months. The wide range for this timeline average is mostly due to osseointegration. Everyone heals a little differently, and the time it takes for the implants and jawbone to fuse together can vary wildly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Factors that Can Impact Your Implant Denture Timeline<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to osseointegration, there are a few other factors that can affect how long it will take to complete your implant denture treatment. For example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>It\u2019s crucial to <strong>follow<\/strong> <strong>any and all aftercare instructions. <\/strong>Otherwise, you could develop complications capable of prolonging your treatment.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>If you have an active oral condition like gum disease or have a weakened jawbone, you may need <strong>preliminary treatment<\/strong> before qualifying for implant dentures.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Your personal availability<\/strong> will naturally dictate how your treatment is scheduled.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>It can take some time to complete an implant denture treatment. The best way to know for sure how long it will take, though, is to keep in touch with your implant dentist. After performing an oral exam, they\u2019ll be able to give you a more precise estimate. They\u2019ll also monitor your progress and keep you updated with any changes in timeline expectations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thenudental.com\/meet-the-dentist.html\">highly experienced dentists<\/a> at Nu Dental Eatontown can complete the entire implant denture treatment process in-office, meaning you won\u2019t have to worry about visiting a second location for implant surgery.
