From the actual implant procedure to the end results, you might not be sure what to imagine from the process. Fortunately, your dentist in Salinas suggests you focus on your first meeting! Read on to discover what you can expect from your dental implant consultation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Initial Conversation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you arrive at your appointment, you\u2019ll meet your dentist and dental team who will speak with you about the process and help create a genuine welcome for you. You\u2019ll also discuss with your dentist about your situation and concerns with your mouth as well as your dental history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Oral Examination<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>After discussing your dental needs, your dentist will thoroughly examine your teeth, gums, and overall oral health. They\u2019ll especially assess your bone mass and quantity so that your implants can be securely anchored in the jawbone. If there isn\u2019t enough bone volume, then you may require a bone graft before the implant procedure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your dentist may use an X-ray to further examine your jawbone. This can reveal how dense the bone really is and confirm whether enough structure is available for the implant. In addition, your doctor can also determine the exact location the post should be placed based off the X-ray exam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Discussing Your Treatment Options<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When your dentist has completed the examination, they will explain the different available treatment options. If they\u2019ve decided that you\u2019re eligible for dental implants, then they can begin preparing a treatment plan. This proposal will include how long the treatment will take, the number of appointments, anesthesia and sedation options, the recovery period, and your aftercare instructions. With this, you\u2019ll have a clear summary of what to expect from the entire procedure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Questions &amp; Answers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Although you\u2019ll be learning about the technical plans for your dental implants, you shouldn\u2019t feel overwhelmed with the amount of information. Always feel free to ask as many questions about your potential procedure as you can. You\u2019ll want to make sure you understand the plan entirely so that you feel more confident about proceeding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Discussing with your dental team about implants doesn\u2019t have to feel stressful. Your dentist will want to do their utmost to help you achieve the smile you deserve, and they\u2019ll be glad to answer any questions!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">About the Practice<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At Blanco Circle Dental Care, we offer outstanding and passionate dental care.
