Dental implants are designed to last 20–30 years or even a lifetime with proper oral hygiene.
The titanium post integrates with the jawbone, making it extremely durable.
Regular dental checkups and good gum health help maintain long-term success.

 A single dental implant in Pakistan generally costs PKR 60,000–200,000 depending on implant brand and clinic location.
Additional procedures like bone grafting or sinus lifting may increase the price.
Experienced implantologists may charge on the higher side due to quality results.

 The implant procedure itself is not very painful because it’s done under local anesthesia.
Patients usually feel only pressure, not sharp pain.
Mild soreness or swelling may appear afterward, which is manageable with pain medication.

 The cost of a single implant tooth ranges from PKR 60,000–200,000 in Pakistan.

Insufficient jawbone density can also make implant placement difficult.
Poor oral hygiene or medical conditions affecting healing can reduce success.

 Initial healing takes 3–7 days, during which swelling and soreness settle.
Complete bone integration (osseointegration) takes 3–6 months.
