What is it?
Dental implants replace missing tooth roots with biocompatible titanium or ceramic fixtures that fuse securely into the jawbone to support crowns, bridges, or fixed full-arch teeth. At Kumar's Microscopic Dental Care in Yelahanka, implant planning and prosthetic restorations are led by Dr. RV Roshini, MDS Prosthodontist & Implant Specialist.
Who needs it?
- Adults missing one, multiple, or all natural teeth

- Those who want permanent fixed teeth without shaving down adjacent healthy teeth
- Patients with good or reconstructible jawbone volume
Symptoms
- Missing tooth creating difficulty chewing or speech problems
- Drifting and tilting of neighboring teeth into gaps
- Jawbone loss and facial sagging from long-term missing teeth
- Ill-fitting dentures slipping during conversation or meals
Causes
- Tooth loss from severe decay, gum disease, or trauma
- Failed previous bridges or fractured roots
- Congenitally missing teeth
Benefits

- Prosthetic crowns and bridges customized by an MDS Prosthodontist
Risks & considerations
- Mild surgical swelling or bruising during the first 48 hours
- Implant integration failure (rare in healthy non-smokers with good oral hygiene)
- Need for bone grafting or sinus lift if bone height is reduced
Treatment process
- Comprehensive consultation, 3D CBCT digital scan, and bone density evaluation
- Computer-guided implant placement under local anesthesia
- Healing period (osseointegration) of 8 to 12 weeks for secure bone bonding
- Digital scanning and custom abutment placement
- Final cementation or screw-retained ceramic/zirconia crown by Dr. RV Roshini

Frequently asked questions
How long does a dental implant procedure take?
Placing a single titanium implant fixture takes approximately 30 to 45 minutes under local anesthesia. Osseointegration (bone fusion) follows over 2 to 3 months before crown placement.
Is the dental implant surgery painful?
No. Performed under gentle local anesthesia, patients generally experience minimal to no pain during surgery, describing recovery as milder than a routine extraction.
How long do dental implants last?
With good oral hygiene and biannual checkups, dental implants routinely last 20 to 25 years or a lifetime.
Am I a candidate for dental implants if I have low bone density?
Yes. Advanced techniques like localized bone grafting or sinus lifting performed by Dr. RV Roshini (MDS Prosthodontist) can restore adequate bone support.
What is the difference between an implant and a dental bridge?
An implant replaces the missing tooth root independently without trimming adjacent healthy teeth. A bridge requires grinding down neighboring teeth for support.
Can diabetic patients safely receive dental implants?
Yes, provided diabetes is reasonably controlled with stable HbA1c levels and sound post-operative care.
What is the cost of a dental implant in Yelahanka?
Single tooth dental implant packages (fixture, abutment, and zirconia crown) depend on the international implant system chosen ([[FILL: clinic implant fee range]]).
