Prosthetic Dental Implant Procedure
The prosthetic dental implant procedure process may take from three to nine months because of the time needed
for your bone to heal around the dental implant body.

First procedure: under anesthesia an artificial root (implant body) is placed into the jaw bone. Healing time is up to six months (some systems have immediate loading).
