Frequently Asked Questions About Dental Implants
What is the dental implant procedure?
On the day of your implant treatment, we'll numb the area we're working on and place one or more dental implants where your teeth are missing, according to your treatment plan. Most implant procedures require a recovery process before teeth can be attached to the implants. Many patients require no more than local anesthesia, though you can also choose to receive oral sedation.
Are dental implants covered by insurance?
Your dental insurance plan might cover some part of the expense of your dental implants and restorations. It is advised that you contact your provider so you know exactly what it is spending and what your part will be. To make your treatment more affordable, we offer third-party financing through CareCredit.
When should I get dental implants?
If you are missing any number of teeth, you owe it to yourself to consider getting implants. They are designed to function as artificial roots for your replacement teeth. Implants make crowns, bridges, and dentures more secure. They prevent bone loss by stimulating your jaw, and they restore your biting power so you can eat anything you want.
Are dental implants worth it?
Although they are more expensive than conventional dentures, dental implants are a worthy investment in your oral and overall health and your quality of life moving forward. That's because they're a potentially lifelong solution that preserves the structural foundation of your mouth, prevents future tooth loss, allows you to eat what you love, and helps you enjoy better nutrition, digestion, and health in the long term.
