Frequently asked questions
Is gum treatment painful?
Modern scaling, root planing and periodontal surgery are performed under local anaesthesia with minimally invasive technique, so most patients feel little to no pain and recover quickly.
How long do dental implants last?
With good oral hygiene and regular check-ups, dental implants can last well over 15 to 20 years, and often a lifetime.
Do I need a bone graft before an implant?
Only if there isn't enough bone at the implant site. Dr. Shashank checks this on your X-ray and explains whether grafting or ridge augmentation is needed.
Can I get an implant immediately after a tooth extraction?
In many cases, yes. Immediate implant placement is one of Dr. Shashank's areas of focus, though suitability depends on the individual case.
Is smoking a problem for gum treatment or implants?
Smoking slows healing and increases the risk of gum disease and implant failure. It is not an automatic disqualifier, but it will be discussed as part of your treatment plan.
