No. Dental implant placement is carried out under local anesthesia, where that particular part of the mouth is made completely numb, so no pain is experienced by person undergoing implant treatment. According to the situation, doctor prescribes few medicines, to be taken after the procedure for few days, to avoid any chances of pain or infection.

In case of one, two or few teeth replacement

Dental implant is placed in the missing tooth area and person is advised to visit clinic mostly any time after 2-3 months; that few months period is dedicated to proper healing of bone around the implant. After that artificial tooth/teeth fabrication process is carried out.

In case of one of both the jaws full replacement:

When one or both jaws are to be treated, there is an option of immediate functional teeth within 1 week time. In that case, person gets provisional fix teeth within 1 week time, which need to be replaced with permanent teeth any time after 3-6 months, depending on the case. In this protocol, person doesn’t stay without teeth and food for more than 1 week time.

For 1st phase of treatment (implant placement stage), only 1-2 visits are required.

For 2nd phase of treatment (teeth fabrication stage), 2-4 weeks’ time is required depending on the complexity of the case. In that 2-4 weeks’ time, person need to visit approximately 5-6 times for satisfactory result.
