The process of getting dental implants
 

At Robert E Smith DDS Inc, we begin with a thorough evaluation of the patient's medical and dental history, and a full clinical examination of the entire mouth and missing tooth area.  The clinical exam should also include specific X-rays.

At the patient's following appointment, Dr. Smith will discuss various comprehensive treatment plans options.  From that point, if dental implants are chosen
, a surgical stent may be needed for precise placement of the implant(s).  Dr. Smith makes a surgical stent by taking an impression of your teeth and fabricating a guide for the oral surgeon.  The oral surgeon then surgically places the implant(s) into the jawbone.

The length of the healing time is based on the quality and quantity of bone, as well as the type of implant placed.  After adequate healing is allowed to occur, the implant can be used to support a crown, bridge, or denture.
