Dental implants are generally not painful or risky when done by an experienced specialist. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, so you won’t feel pain during the treatment. Most patients say it feels similar to a regular dental procedure.
After the implant, you may experience mild soreness or swelling for a day or two, which is normal and easily managed with medication.
The risk is very low because dental implants have a success rate of around 95–98%. They are one of the safest and most reliable tooth-replacement options available today.
Choosing a qualified dental implant specialist and following proper aftercare makes the procedure even smoother and safer.
