Today’s article from the Center for Dental Anesthesia is for people who have decided to replace a tooth with a tooth implant. Great choice!
Now you need to choose a dental implant dentist to perform the procedure.
This is an essential decision. A dental 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 think about:
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 dentistry?
Patient Reviews
Online reviews are a great resource. Former patients not only give a star rating, but some of them share details about their experience. Check out the reviews for any dentist you are considering. Visit multiple online platforms.
Office Atmosphere
A modern dental practice with the latest technology helps ensure a successful 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 the Price?
You may wonder why we didn’t list price as one of the variables. This was intentional. Choosing an implant dentist by price alone is a bad idea. In the Alexandria area, most implant dentists’ prices are comparable. If you find a provider that has slashed the price for implants, be wary. 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.
