Dental implants are one of the most popular restorative methods available. They closely replicate the appearance and structure of your natural teeth and function just as your natural dentition would.
If you’re interested in receiving dental implants, the first step is to schedule a consultation with the dentist. During your initial exam, we can determine if you have a strong enough jaw bone to undergo surgery. The procedure occurs in several stages: first, our dentist will place the implants, and after a healing period of several months, they will restore your implants with a crown, bridge or denture.
Dr. Guss offers patients added convenience by placing and restoring dental implants all in our office in most cases. Although it may not seem important to have the same dentist perform every aspect of your surgery, there are many benefits to having a one-stop shop for the entire process.
Comprehensive Treatment
When you have one dentist performing your treatment, it means that the same person who created your treatment plan will also implement it. You won’t have to worry about any information getting lost in translation and you can expect Dr. Guss to know every piece of information needed for your procedure. For patients with more complicated cases, we may utilize a specialist from our trusted network of local colleagues, but happily restore the implant to maintain optimal esthetic and functional results.
Being able to build a trusting relationship with the doctor completing treatment is important for patient comfort as well. From the initial consultation to the placement of your restorations, Dr. Guss will be with you and have a thorough understanding of your personal and medical needs.
Faster Treatment Times
Although there are several procedures involved, having the same office the placement and restoration of dental implants can help make the process more efficient. When working with multiple doctors, you have to abide by multiple schedules.
When you work with the same dentist, you only have to work around one schedule, which means that you may receive your restorations faster than you would working with multiple doctors. You can start enjoying your smile sooner when you only have one relationship to maintain.
