Getting dental implants is a big step and we want to make sure the procedure is not stressful for you. Your initial consultation with one of our expert implant dentists marks the start of this exciting journey. This appointment begins with a thorough oral examination. Your dentist will check your dental health, including your teeth, gums, and jawbone. This comprehensive examination may involve taking X-rays or 3D images of your mouth to evaluate bone density and positioning of your teeth. We also take your medical history into account, including any underlying health issues, allergies, medications you're currently on, or any previous surgeries. Once the examination and health history discussion are complete, your dentist will discuss the findings with you. If dental implants are right for you, we will create a personalized treatment plan. This plan includes the number of implants needed, where they will be placed, and the type of restoration used. We will be sure to explain the procedure, including how many visits are required, what you can anticipate during each visit, and the estimated recovery time. Your dentist can also provide you with an estimate of the treatment costs, including the cost of the implants, restoration, and any necessary procedures such as bone grafting or sinus lift surgery. We will discuss payment options and insurance coverage if applicable. If you decide that you are ready for a dental implant treatment, we will schedule your next appointment. Our aim during this initial consultation is for your dentist to gather all necessary information to make an informed decision about your treatment!
