You may find yourself so excited and happy about the prospect of dental implants for your smile that you’re wondering to yourself: Why didn’t you hear about or learn about implants earlier? Surely, finding out about them straight away after tooth loss would have saved you time and energy investigating your options, as you could have simply said yes to them immediately and then gotten your journey underway! Our Conroe, TX practice can certainly appreciate your enthusiasm and reminds you that there are many reasons you may not remember knowing about them (and, in some cases, it’s good to have a broad understanding of all options!).
Your General Dentist May Not Have Offered Them
Perhaps you were not coming to our practice for your general dental care needs when you dealt with your tooth loss at first. If so, it’s possible that your general dentist offered traditional prosthetic dentistry but did not offer dental implants. The result? You were offered a dental bridge, partial, or denture for your smile completion needs. Remember that implant dentistry is its own area of care, requiring oral surgery! Fortunately, you are now a patient at a practice offering comprehensive implant services!
You May Have Assumed They Were A Luxury
It’s possible that you heard dental implants mentioned when you first had missing teeth but you dismissed them because from the limited information you had at the time, you considered them a luxury. They are frequently looked at this way initially. Though, as patients begin to learn about their benefits, the many different options they provide, and the fact that they are more cost-effective than they seem, they realize implants are often an economical and efficient solution.
You May Have Felt Serious About A Quick Fix
We know that many patients feel quite frantic about finding the quickest solution for replacing their teeth when they first deal with tooth loss. Since dental implants and restorations take time, patients often prefer to begin with a denture or bridge because it’s a faster pathway. Fortunately, you know that you may receive implants by taking a bit more time but that the advantages provide you with lasting improvement!
