Dental Implants & Restoration
A missing tooth changes the conversation.
A missing tooth can affect chewing, speech and the appearance of your smile. Replacing it means thinking about the surrounding teeth, gum health, available bone and the long-term care of the restoration.
At Nivani Aesthetics Clinic in Malad West, Dr. Mayank Garg offers onsite dental implant consultations and treatment, with an assessment before a procedure is proposed.
What makes an implant suitable?
Implants require healthy supporting tissues and enough bone to support the proposed treatment. General health, healing, oral hygiene and the condition of neighbouring teeth may change the options discussed.
Gum and bone condition
Gum disease or reduced bone can complicate placement. The proposed approach must follow an appropriate clinical assessment.
Long-term maintenance
Implants and their restorations need ongoing cleaning and review. Inflammation around implants can threaten supporting tissues.

Dental Implants
An implant is a replacement tooth-root fixture placed in the jaw to support a restoration when suitable. Examination, treatment planning, healing and maintenance are important parts of the decision.
An implant starts with the foundation.
Look closely at bone and gums
Active periodontal disease, inadequate bone or certain health conditions may need treatment or additional assessment first.
Discuss surgery and maintenance
Implant treatment involves procedure-related risks, healing time and ongoing care. Infection, failure of integration and peri-implant disease are possible.

Frequently asked questions
What is a dental implant?
An implant is a fixture placed in the jaw to support a replacement restoration. The clinical method and restoration type depend on the case.
Does everyone qualify for dental implants?
No. Bone availability, gum health, oral hygiene and general medical factors all affect suitability.
Is a dental implant the same as a bridge?
No. They use different methods to replace teeth, and each has specific advantages and trade-offs.
Will I need a scan?
Your dentist will determine which imaging or other records are necessary to assess bone and plan treatment.
Can gum disease affect implants?
Yes. Existing periodontal disease should be assessed, and inflammation around an implant can threaten the surrounding tissues.
How long does healing take?
Healing varies with the procedure, bone condition and individual circumstances. Your dentist should discuss the expected stages.
