Are You Interested in Dental Implants?

We believe that it is extremely important to meet the dentist who will be treating you and discuss any questions or concerns in person, rather than quoting a flat price on the phone to a potential patient, who we have never met or evaluated before!

When it comes to implant treatment, there may be a few possibilities and  variations in the procedures involved. The process begins with a thorough evaluation of the patient's medical and dental history, and a clinical examination of the entire mouth and missing tooth area, study of your jaw bone anatomy and density. The clinical exam may also include specific X-rays, in some cases a CT scan might be needed. All of that could be done at the consultation visit in our office, so there is no need for you to go to another practice for additional visit and waste time!  We understand your time is valuable and therefore work hard to minimize the lenght of the entire treatment experience, so that you can resume normal lifestyle as soon as possible. 

Once the dentist has reviewed the data from the CT scan, he will be able to propose a more comprehensive and precise treatment plan. Our treatment coordinator will prepare the quote for your treatment cost and work with you on the financial arrangements. 
The surgery date will be scheduled next. At that visit  implants are surgically placed in the jawbone under local anesthesia, if extractions and bone graft are a part pf your treatment, they will be performed at this visit as well. You will be allowed some healing time and requested to return for a post op visit in about a week or so following the implant placement surgery. The length of the healing time is based on the quality and quantity of bone, as well as the type and number of implants placed, the type and number of extractions done. After adequate healing time is allowed, the implant will be used to support a partial, denture or restored with  the help of a crown or bridge.

Since every one of us is an individual, treatment options also may vary from person to person.  If you have questions regarding dental implants, please call our office at 212-689-0024 or email us at  appts@newyorkdenturedental.com today to schedule your personalized consultation with one of our caring doctors.

We look forward to seeing you!
