Dr Ivan Fischler replaces missing teeth with implants, in a surgery room used only for this purpose.
Step by step

Examination, listening to your request and explaining the possible options.
3D imaging
The practice's cone beam scanner measures the available bone. No need to go to a radiology centre.

You receive a written plan and a detailed estimate, to be signed before any surgery.
Placing the implant
Under local anaesthetic, in the dedicated surgery room with its scrub area.
Healing
The implant bonds with the bone over a few weeks to a few months. A temporary solution can be provided.
Fitting the crown
The final tooth is fixed on the implant, then checked at your yearly visits.
