THE IMPLANT, EXPLAINED
One system. Different parts working together.
Implant body
The part placed in the jawbone to support replacement teeth.
Abutment
The connection between the implant body and the restoration above it.
Crown
The visible replacement tooth. Other restorations include bridges and dentures.
YOUR STARTING POINT
A good place to begin.
Take it at your own pace.
You do not need every answer at once.
Understand the essentials
The parts, benefits and limitations. Start with the fundamentals.
Plan the costs
Look beyond the advertised price and prepare questions for your treatment plan.
Care for the long term
Prepare for recovery, understand daily care and know when to contact your clinician.
FIND YOUR STARTING POINT
Different gaps. Different conversations.
One missing tooth
An implant-supported crown may replace one tooth. Compare the alternatives first.
Several missing teeth
An implant-supported bridge may be considered. The number and arrangement of implants are planned individually.
A full arch
Options include fixed restorations and removable implant-retained dentures, with different cleaning needs.

PLANNING CARE IN THAILAND
Think beyond the first appointment.
Allow for staged care
Many conventional plans involve assessment and surgery, healing, then the final restoration. Agree the timing with the clinician before booking travel.
Plan your follow-up
Ask who will manage reviews after you return home. Request implant system details, radiographs and a treatment summary.
Ask for an itemised quote
Clarify imaging, extraction, grafting, temporary teeth, crown material and follow-up. Headline prices may not include them.
