1 Answer

Osseointegration may take from 3 to 6 months, depending on the quality and quantity of your bone. During this stage, you will need to avoid putting too much pressure on the implants and maintain good oral hygiene. You may also need to wear a temporary denture or bridge to fill the gap of the missing teeth.
