How long does teeth implants take to do from stage 1 to the final stage?!
Question: It depends on whether you had a tooth extracted or there was already a spot to put the implant in.
If you need an extraction, the tooth comes out, a bone graft usually goes in, and you wait about three months for the next step.
The implant is placed (the titanium screw-like piece that fits into the bone) and three to fourth months are allowed for it to integrate.
Another piece is fit onto the screw and a temporary crown can be made. The rest depends on how fast the lab your dentist uses can cast your crown (the part of the implant that you will actually chew on)
So - anywhere between 3 and 8 months is a normal amount of time for an implant to take.
