- 3. Healing Period: After the implants are placed, a healing period of several months is necessary for the implants to fuse with the jawbone.
- 4. Bridge Placement: Once your dentist confirms the implants have fully integrated, we will attach the custom-made bridge to the implants, completing your restoration.
