Things You Think About Implants That Are Wrong!

Yes, we know, it can be taken as impolite to correct someone! However, when it has to do with some misinformation you may be carrying around in regard to dental implants, well … we simply feel obligated to be sure you have the factual data on hand! Otherwise, you might not come in to our Conroe, TX practice to find out more, to fix your current tooth loss issue, and to get your smile right back into the truly exceptional and wonderful shape and oral health that you deserve! So, with a ton of respect for you and your current knowledge about implants, we would like to right some things you just might not be getting quite right!

You Think They’re The Most Expensive Prosthetic

You might think to yourself that even though dental implants sound like something you could become very interested in, they’re not necessarily for you. The reason you think this? You figure they are the most expensive prosthetic. We remind patients that this detail is all about perspective. If you’re focused solely on the initial cost, then yes, this is probably true. However, if you take a broader glance to consider your entire life, all associated costs for your tooth replacement, and cost-effectiveness over time, implants usually win for best selection! Unlike bridges, dentures, etc. that will need help through repairs, replacements, and more, implants just stay put and keep on working!

You Think The Recovery Process Is Overwhelming

You may think that recovering from dental implant placement is something that will be very difficult and will overwhelm you. However, it’s not really that much different than any other oral surgery procedure. The thing that you may have heard is that the entire process of receiving implants and getting to that final finish line takes some time. There’s placement, recovery, then giving time for osseointegration, then the final placement of restorations. Yes, it takes up to a year but it’s just extra time!

You Just Assume They’re For Very Few People (And Not You)

You may figure that dental implants are so special that they’re probably for a small group of qualifying individuals (but you don’t assume you’re part of this group). We could go on and on: In short, there are usually ways to ensure you may qualify! Learn more when we see you next.
