Dental Implants in Aundh, Pune
A fixed, permanent replacement for missing teeth — planned after a clinical and X-ray assessment at Braces and Beyond, Aundh.
A dental implant is a titanium post placed in the jawbone to replace the root of a missing tooth. Once it fuses with the bone — a process called osseointegration that typically takes 3–6 months — a crown is fixed on top. At Braces and Beyond, Aundh, implants are offered as a permanent, fixed replacement for missing teeth after a clinical and X-ray assessment of your bone and gum health.
Who dental implants suit
Implants suit adults who are missing one or more teeth, have healthy gums, and have enough jawbone to hold the implant — or can have bone built up where it is lacking. Good oral hygiene matters, because gum infection around an implant is the main reason implants fail.
When an implant may not be the right choice
Implants are not the answer for everyone. Uncontrolled diabetes and heavy smoking slow healing and raise the risk of failure. Teenagers whose jaws are still growing are usually advised to wait. Where bone is insufficient and grafting is not suitable, a bridge or a denture can be the better choice. We will tell you honestly if an implant is not right for you.
The implant process
- Assessment: examination and X-rays to check bone and gum health
- Placement: the implant is placed in the jawbone under local anaesthesia
- Healing: the implant fuses with the bone, typically over 3–6 months
- Crown: a connector (abutment) and the final crown are fixed on the implant
Implant vs bridge vs denture
| Option | Fixed or removable | Affects neighbouring teeth? | Main trade-off |
|---|---|---|---|
| Implant | Fixed | No | Minor surgery and a few months of healing |
| Bridge | Fixed | Yes — they are shaped to support it | Relies on the health of the supporting teeth |
| Denture | Removable | Partial dentures clip onto them | Removable; needs periodic refitting |
Caring for an implant
Brush and floss around an implant as you would a natural tooth, and keep up regular check-ups. The crown can wear or chip over the years and be replaced; the implant underneath is designed to stay.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is dental implant surgery painful?
The implant is placed under local anaesthesia, so the procedure itself is not painful. Some soreness and swelling for a few days afterwards is normal.
How long does the implant process take?
The implant typically needs 3–6 months to fuse with the jawbone before the final crown is fixed. Cases that need bone grafting take longer.
How long do dental implants last?
With good oral hygiene and regular check-ups, implants can last for many years. The crown on top may need replacing over time.
Can I get an implant years after losing a tooth?
Often, yes. The jawbone can shrink after a tooth is lost, so an X-ray assessment decides whether there is enough bone or whether grafting is needed first.
