Questions about single implant with crown
What are the three parts of an implant?
The implant, a threaded post, usually titanium, placed in the jawbone. The abutment, a small connector that screws into the post. The crown, the visible tooth that attaches to the abutment 9. On price lists these are often split into "implant" and "crown on implant", and some clinics price the abutment separately 9. Ask which parts the quoted price covers.

How long does a single implant take?
Cleveland Clinic says the whole process can take six to 12 months 10. Placing the post takes about 15 to 20 minutes 10, the first round of healing about a week, and the bone then grows around the post for three to nine months 9. The abutment and crown go on after that, in a visit of about an hour 9. So plan on the crown being a second trip. A bone graft first adds at least three months before that 3.
Who is not a good candidate?
Cleveland Clinic lists untreated gum disease, severe bone loss, certain bone disorders or autoimmune diseases, unmanaged diabetes, poor mouth hygiene, and current smoking or vaping 9. Tobacco slows healing, and illnesses such as diabetes or leukemia can interfere with it 11. Your general health matters more than your age, and there is no upper age limit 9,11. Thin bone does not rule you out; a graft can add it, but it adds months 3.
Can an implant fail?
Yes. Signs are a loose implant, bleeding gums, fever, pus or swelling 9. Surgery can bring infection, nerve damage, injury to the mouth or a hole in the sinus lining 2. Later, peri-implantitis, a gum infection that destroys bone around the implant, is reported in 10% to more than 40% of cases depending on how it is measured. Past gum disease, smoking, uncontrolled diabetes and poor cleaning raise the risk 12. With good care, implants can often last a lifetime; the crown about 15 years 9.
Which implant brand should I ask for?
We do not compare brands, and the sources we opened do not either. What matters is that you get the brand and lot number of every implant in writing, so a dentist at home can find matching parts if the crown or abutment ever needs replacing. Ask before surgery, and ask for it again on your invoice.
What does an implant with crown cost abroad?
Ask whether the abutment, the crown, the scan, any extraction and any graft are in the price.
