Assessment of the Candidates For Dental Implant

The vast majority of people are eligible for dental implants, but in order to acquire them, you must first satisfy some prerequisites and conditions. Your dental health will be evaluated by your Summerlin dentist so that he or she can establish whether or not your jawbone and gums are in good enough condition to sustain your new teeth. This evaluation might include the following:

  • A visual and oral examination will be performed. Your dentist will examine your gums to look for any signs of gum disease as well as any other disorders that could potentially affect the dental implant treatment.
  • Digital X-rays as well as other types of imaging technology. Your dental staff will be able to evaluate the size and density of your jawbone with this information.
  • A conversation about your dental hygiene practices as well as other lifestyle issues that are pertinent. People who don't smoke and are careful about brushing and flossing their teeth are the healthiest candidates for dental implants.

It is not necessary for you to panic if you are not immediately qualified to acquire dental implants. After undergoing several preliminary treatments, it is possible that you will be able to qualify for the program. A bone transplant or treatment for gum disease may be necessary, for instance, in the preceding stages of implant placement surgery for some patients.

A Discussion Regarding Your Objectives and Predictions for the Future

If you have already done any study into dental implants, you most likely have a good understanding of the various procedures and technologies that may be utilized during the procedure. Be sure to bring up the subject with your dentist if there is a particular method of treatment — for instance, you might be inquisitive about the All-on-4 procedure — in which you are interested. implants, dental implant
Being open and honest about the various financial factors is also very crucial. Dental implants are a fantastic investment, but the initial expense may be significantly higher than you anticipated.

If you let your dental team know about any worries you have regarding your finances, they will have the opportunity to assist you in exploring all of the treatment alternatives that are available to you.

The Planning of the Particulars

After gathering information about your oral health and the outcomes you hope to achieve from treatment, your dentist will be able to begin planning the particulars of your care. It's possible that they'll talk to you about the following:

  • The nature and extent of any necessary preliminary treatments • The possible number of dental implants that you will require • An estimate of how long your treatment may take from the beginning to the end • The advantages and disadvantages of the various treatment options available to you (if you are eligible for more than one type of implant procedure) • An explanation of what you can anticipate during and after your implant placement surgery

There is no reason to be concerned about the dental implant consultation you have scheduled; in all likelihood, it will make you feel enthusiastic about the path that lies ahead.
