The Benefits of Dental Implants
- Implants stop the bone from shrinking & keep teeth next to the lost tooth from moving.
- Implants can be created to keep dentures supported.
- Human-made tooth replacements act like regular teeth and won't move or turn in your mouth.
- Implants can last a lifetime with proper care.
- Implants allow you to eat traditional food and feel confident again.
The Dental Implant Procedure
The first step in deciding whether implants are the right choice for you is to contact our office to set up an implant consultation appointment. Our dentist will thoroughly examine your mouth to determine if you would be a candidate for dental implant services. If the dentist recommends dental implants, the procedure involves three necessary steps:
- Implant Placement Into The Jawbone
- Allowing Time For Healing
- Healing will take a few months, giving the bone time to grow and encompass the implant to strengthen it and keep it in place.
- Teeth Placement
- Options include a single tooth, partial dentures, full dentures, and bridges.
Does Insurance Cover Dental Implants?
Coverage for dental implants will vary based on what insurance plan you have. However, at McDonald Family Dentistry, we can send your suggested treatment plan to your insurance carrier to get an estimate of what portion they would pay toward the procedure.
To learn more about dental implants or schedule an initial consultation, call our office today at 828-327-8300. Our staff will be happy to answer any questions or concerns that you have.
