Selecting Dental Implants: Questions To Ask Yourself

Yep, you know that you’re going to want dental implants in some capacity for your smile. As you begin finding out all about implants, though, you may find out it’s not just about showing up, telling us you’d like some implants please, and then setting up a visit. There’s more involved because there are costs to consider, options to sort through, and more! To make sure you’re prepared for the experience (and that you can enjoy it), we suggest asking yourself some questions first.

What Am I Comfortable Investing In?

There’s the question, of course, that asks how much you can spend based on your budget. However, don’t forget that you should also ask yourself what you’re comfortable spending. Even if you have the means to choose any dental implant option, it’s essential that you feel confident about your decisions for your oral health. Take a bit of time to reflect.

What’s My Actual Goal?

For some patients, the goal is to have a dental implant in every open socket and to complete each with a crown, so that the finished result includes a smile that’s extraordinarily close to that patient’s original smile. For some, it’s to replace missing teeth with the help of implant support, so that one’s smile looks lifelike and lovely and chewing, speaking, etc. go back to normal. This can help you differentiate between your options.

What If I Need Additional Care?

Ask yourself if you’re ready to cooperate and get on board with whatever dental implants require. You’ll have multiple visits. Some patients might need bone grafting or other dental care before it’s time for implant surgery because their smiles aren’t quite ready. If you’re up for whatever comes your way, then it’s time to get started!
