Once healed, it supports a crown, bridge, or denture to restore natural function and appearance."},{"question":"Who is suitable for dental implants?","answer":"Most adults with healthy gums and adequate bone are suitable for implants. The dentist will assess bone levels, bite, and overall oral health to determine if implants are the right option."},{"question":"How long does dental implant treatment take?","answer":"Implant treatment usually takes several months. This includes placement of the implant, healing time for the bone to integrate, and fitting the final crown or restoration."},{"question":"Do dental implants hurt?","answer":"Implant placement is usually comfortable. Local anaesthetic is used, and most patients report only mild pressure during the procedure. Any post\u2011treatment discomfort is typically short\u2011lived and manageable."},{"question":"How long do dental implants last?","answer":"Dental implants can last many years with good oral hygiene and regular dental visits.
