Today’s article is for people who have decided to replace a tooth with a dental implant. Great choice!
Now you need to choose a dental implant specialist to carry out the procedure.
This is a key decision. A tooth implant is permanent. It involves oral surgery. It requires a significant financial investment. Making a bad choice of provider can lower your chances for success.
Here are the critical factors to consider:
Experience
- How many years has the dentist been performing implants?
- How many tooth implants has he/she done?
- How many years has the dentist been practicing cosmetic dentistry?
Patient Reviews
Online reviews are a well-designed resource. Former patients not only give a star rating, but some of them also share details about their experience. Check out the reviews for any dentist you are thinking about. Visit multiple online platforms.
Office Atmosphere
A modern dental practice with the latest technology helps ensure a winning outcome. When you visit the office, ask about their patient amenities. Observe the cleanliness of the office and the friendliness of the team.
What About Price?
You may wonder why we didn’t list price as one of the considerations. This was intentional. Choosing an implant clinic by price alone is a bad idea. In the Wasilla area, most implant dentists’ prices are comparable. If you find a provider that has slashed the price for implants, be cautious. Find out exactly what is covered. A dental implant consists of a post, abutment, and crown (or denture). Some implant-only clinics advertise the price for the post alone. This is misleading.
