Dental implant assessment in West Delhi
Implant planning considers your mouth, bone and health. At Dr. Kathuria’s Dental Specialties in Tagore Garden, Dr. Eisha Kathuria explains the restoration before you decide.
Every plan begins with examination; imaging is recommended only when clinically needed.
Same-day consultations may be available; call to confirm. Monday–Saturday, 9:30 am–8:00 pm.
01 · Quick answer
Dr. Kathuria’s Dental Specialties in New Delhi assesses dental implants for missing teeth. An implant can support a crown, bridge or denture. Eligibility depends on oral health, bone, medical history and smoking.
In brief: implant suitability requires an examination.
02 · Overview
A dental implant is placed surgically in the jawbone to support an artificial tooth. An abutment connects it to the visible crown, bridge or denture.
A single implant may replace a tooth without preparing neighbouring teeth. Comparison with bridges or dentures depends on the gap, gums, bone and adjacent teeth.
Takeaway: the implant is the foundation; the visible tooth is a separate restoration.
03 · Candidacy
Suitability depends on health and local conditions, not age alone. Dr. Eisha reviews the teeth, gums, bite, medical history and implant area.
Takeaway: safe decisions consider the whole patient, not only the gap.
04 · Alternatives
Alternatives include a dental bridge, dentures, or monitoring a gap in selected situations.
Compare cleaning, adjacent-tooth involvement, maintenance and surgery. Your dentist should explain why an option fits the diagnosis.
Takeaway: compare implants, bridges and dentures before deciding.
05 · Treatment choices
One implant and a crown may replace one missing tooth when the bone, gum and bite are suitable.
Selected implants may support several replacement teeth, reducing the need for one implant per missing tooth.
A planned number of implants may support a fixed or removable full-arch restoration when many teeth are missing.
Takeaway: missing teeth alone do not determine the number of implants.
06 · Assessment
Your concern, expectations and medical history are discussed first.
Teeth, gums, bite and the missing-tooth area are checked.
Appropriate dental imaging is advised only when needed for diagnosis and planning.
Implant and non-implant choices, limitations and likely stages are explained.
A personalised sequence is prepared if you choose to continue and are suitable.
Takeaway: consultation is for diagnosis and comparison; it does not commit you to treatment.
07 · Procedure
Active decay, gum disease or infection is addressed. A damaged tooth may need removal and healing.
Bone, gums, adjacent roots, bite and anatomy are evaluated, with imaging when justified.
The implant is positioned in the jaw under suitable anaesthesia. Appointment length varies with the number of implants and additional procedures.
Bone integrates around the implant over several months. Timing differs by site, health, bone quality and plan.
After healing, impressions or scans guide the restoration. Cleaning and reviews remain part of care.
Takeaway: implant treatment is a sequence of planning, placement, healing, restoration and maintenance.
08 · Recovery
Soreness, swelling, light bleeding or bruising can occur. Follow instructions for food, cleaning and medicines.
The gum usually settles. Attend the advised review and do not change wound care without speaking to your clinician.
Bone integration continues below the gum. Keep nearby teeth clean and attend reviews.
Clean the restoration daily and maintain professional checks. Report looseness, pain, swelling or bleeding.
These are general expectations. Follow the instructions given for your procedure.
Takeaway: healing continues after discomfort settles, so cleaning and reviews still matter.
09 · Honest limits
Possible problems include infection, delayed healing, tissue injury, altered sensation, sinus involvement at some upper-jaw sites, implant loosening and cleaning difficulty.
Smoking, gum disease, poor plaque control and uncontrolled health conditions can increase risk. The restoration may need later maintenance or replacement.
The clinic may defer placement when active disease, medical risk, inadequate diagnostic information or unsafe anatomy has not been addressed. Referral may be advised when appropriate.
Takeaway: careful selection reduces avoidable risk but cannot remove every complication.
10 · Bone support
Tooth loss, infection and gum disease can reduce bone. Further imaging may be needed. Choices can include grafting, a different implant plan, an alternative restoration or no implant.
Grafting is an additional procedure with its own healing and risks; it is not automatically required. Recommendations should reflect the planned restoration and anatomy.
Takeaway: limited bone changes the planning conversation, but it does not lead to one automatic solution.
11 · Clinic approach
The missing tooth, gums, neighbouring teeth and bite are considered together.
Implants are compared with suitable bridge, denture and monitoring choices.
The final tooth position helps guide the implant plan rather than being an afterthought.
Cleaning access, reviews and long-term care are part of the decision.
Takeaway: planning connects the surgical implant with the tooth restoration it is intended to support.

13 · Clinic
The practice is in Block AC, Tagore Garden Extension, with a multidisciplinary dental team.
Bring dental records, imaging, a medicine list and details of medical conditions or allergies. The dentist will decide whether existing images are sufficient.
Takeaway: accurate medical and dental information helps make the first discussion more useful.
14 · Common questions
A dental implant is placed in the jawbone to support a replacement tooth or teeth. The complete restoration may include the implant body, an abutment and a crown, bridge or denture.
The timeline varies. Bone healing after implant placement often takes several months, while extraction healing, grafting or a more complex restoration can add stages. Your sequence can only be estimated after assessment.
A temporary tooth may be possible in some cases, but it is not suitable for every site or bite. The dentist will explain whether a temporary restoration is advisable and how it must be protected.
Diabetes does not lead to the same answer for everyone. Control of the condition, healing risk, gum health and medical advice are considered. Implant placement may be deferred when a health condition is not adequately controlled.
Yes. Smoking can delay healing and reduce the likelihood of long-term success. Discuss current tobacco or nicotine use honestly so the risks and timing can be assessed.
Implant restorations need daily plaque removal, including cleaning around and between the replacement teeth. The technique and tools depend on whether you have a crown, bridge or denture. Professional reviews remain important.
Yes. An implant may fail to integrate or can develop problems later. Infection, smoking, uncontrolled health conditions, untreated gum disease, excessive load and difficulty cleaning are among the factors that can contribute.
Yes. Bring your examination findings, imaging and proposed plan if available. A useful second opinion should review the diagnosis, alternatives, risks and restorative goal rather than considering only the implant itself.
Takeaway: personal answers require examination, but these questions can help you prepare for the consultation.
