“I Was Tired Of Wasting Money On Each Procedure!”
If you’re struggling with failing or missing teeth and considering dental implants, it’s important to learn the basics prior to scheduling a consultation. Start by finding out who is a good candidate for dental implants. Although most adults are dental implant candidates, several factors can be problematic and need to be resolved first, while others can make surgery more challenging.
For instance, dental implants require adequate bone density and volume, but this issue is commonly resolved with a bone augmentation procedure. In addition, streamlined All-on-4® full-mouth dental implants in Cicero, NY, often eliminate the need for bone grafting through strategic placement and angling of the implants.
Your complimentary consultation at United Implant Dentistry is the first important step in finding out if you qualify for dental implants in Cicero, NY. Our highly skilled implant dentist, Dr. Aeklavya Panjali, will perform a comprehensive oral exam and diagnostics to assess your overall oral health and determine whether you have adequate bone volume/density.
During your approximately 90-minute consultation, Dr. Panjali will also ask about medical issues and lifestyle factors that can negatively impact implant surgery. We will also discuss the entire process to ensure you make an informed decision before moving forward.
Good oral hygiene is essential for dental implant success, as infections or gum disease can compromise the implant’s stability and long-term outcome. Without proper care, conditions like peri-implantitis can develop, threatening the integrity of the implant and potentially leading to failure.
Adequate bone density and volume are crucial for successful dental implant integration, as insufficient bone can lead to complications or implant failure. Based on a thorough evaluation of your oral and overall health, Dr. Panjali may recommend bone grafting to improve bone quality and create a stable foundation for implants.
Systemic conditions like uncontrolled diabetes, autoimmune diseases, and certain medications can impair healing, increase infection risk, and interfere with implant fusion. Proper planning and close monitoring allow patients with these conditions to achieve successful implant outcomes.
Smoking and tobacco use reduce blood flow, delay healing, and interfere with implant fusion, significantly increasing the risk of implant failure. Similarly, alcohol should be avoided before and after surgery, as it can hinder the body’s ability to heal and regenerate vital tissues.
Consulting with an experienced implant dentist like Dr. Panjali mitigates risks associated with your gum and bone health, overall health, and lifestyle factors. Meticulous evaluation of your candidacy and preoperative planning can significantly reduce the risks and ensure the long-term success of your dental implant treatment.
Like other dental implant candidates who relied on our implant expertise to restore their smiles, a preliminary procedure may be necessary to establish a healthy foundation before getting dental implants at United Implant Dentistry. Rest assured, from your consultation to postsurgical care, every step in the process is customized to meet your unique needs and stand the test of time!
