At JC Dental & Implant Studio in Jersey City, NJ, we know that choosing dental implants is a significant decision, and we’re here to guide you every step of the way. From your initial consultation to the final restoration, our team is committed to making the process smooth, precise, and tailored to your unique needs. With advanced technology and personalized care, we ensure that your journey to a stronger, more confident smile is a positive one.
Step 1: Your Initial Consultation
Every successful dental implant treatment begins with a thorough consultation. During this visit, we’ll take the time to:
- Review your medical and dental history.
- Perform a comprehensive exam of your teeth, gums, and jaw.
- Capture digital x-rays and 3D CBCT scans to evaluate bone density.
- Discuss your goals and expectations.
This information allows us to determine if you’re a good candidate for implants and begin designing your personalized treatment plan. We’ll also provide a detailed cost estimate and review your payment options. Financing is available through CareCredit, and—pending approval—you may qualify for plans starting at $99 per month.
Step 2: Digital Treatment Planning
Once you’re approved for treatment, we’ll create a custom surgical and restorative plan using advanced imaging and planning software. This digital planning stage ensures:
- Precise implant placement.
- Ideal angulation for long-term success.
- A predictable outcome with natural-looking results.
We’ll also explain each part of your treatment timeline, answer any questions, and review all financial and sedation options available to keep you comfortable and confident.
Step 3: Implant Placement Surgery
On the day of your procedure, the titanium implant post is carefully placed into your jawbone. This is typically done under local anesthesia or with sedation if desired. Our team uses guided surgery techniques to maximize accuracy and minimize discomfort. The procedure is often quicker and easier than most patients expect, with minimal downtime.
Following surgery, you may receive a temporary restoration so you can smile with confidence while your implant heals.
Step 4: Healing & Osseointegration
Over the next few months, a critical process called osseointegration occurs. During this phase, your implant fuses with the surrounding jawbone, creating a stable and long-lasting foundation for your restoration. Healing time varies by patient, but most cases take between 3 to 6 months.
We’ll monitor your progress through follow-up visits and ensure everything is healing properly. You’ll be given detailed post-operative care instructions to support the best results.
Step 5: Final Restoration Placement
Once your implant is fully integrated, we’ll move to the final step—attaching your custom-crafted restoration. Depending on your needs, this could be:
- A single dental crown.
- An implant-supported bridge.
- A full-arch denture.
Each restoration is designed to match the color, shape, and size of your natural teeth for a seamless blend. After placement, you’ll be able to enjoy the full function and aesthetics of a complete, natural-looking smile.
Ongoing Care & Maintenance
While implants are designed to last a lifetime, regular care is essential to protect your investment. We’ll schedule routine checkups and professional cleanings to keep your implant and surrounding tissues healthy. At home, brushing, flossing, and avoiding harmful habits will help maintain your results.
