One of patients' most common fears is implant pain. The reality: the procedure is done under local anaesthesia and often takes under an hour — most patients compare it to a longer filling.
Post-operative discomfort is usually minor and managed with common painkillers, while minimally invasive techniques and laser decontamination speed up healing.
Postponing the replacement of a lost tooth, on the other hand, leads to neighbouring teeth shifting and bone loss — problems much harder to fix later.
