Plan the support, then the smile.
Dental implants act as replacement tooth roots. The practice describes them as a foundation for fixed or removable replacement teeth.
An implant and its restoration are parts of a treatment plan. Ask which stages would be needed for you and who would provide each part of the care.
At your appointment
Discuss suitability, alternatives, treatment stages, maintenance and a written cost estimate. Ask the office to explain current specialist arrangements and any payment options; these should be confirmed before you commit.
Questions worth bringing
- Am I a suitable candidate for implant treatment?
- Who would perform each stage, and where?
- What is included in the estimate and follow-up care?
YOUR QUESTIONS
About dental implants
Is an implant the visible replacement tooth?
The implant provides support. A restoration, such as a crown, supplies the visible tooth.
Can I compare other replacement options?
Yes. Ask about bridges and dentures as well as implants, including the care each option involves.
