What to expect during treatment
Your implant journey at Wellingborough Dental
Your treatment begins with a consultation with our treatment coordinator, who will talk through your goals and answer questions. We’ll then refer you to one of our skilled implant dentists from our trusted Kettering-based team.
They will assess your jaw health using advanced imaging. If suitable, the implant is placed under local anaesthetic. A healing period of several months follows while the implant integrates with your bone. Once healed, a custom crown is fitted for a secure, natural-looking result.
