Dental Implant Consultation in Burley, ID

If you have lost a tooth or have several missing teeth, you may be a good candidate for dental implants. You can set up a consultation with Dr. Ronald Rice to find out if implants are right for you and learn about the benefits of dental implants over other tooth replacement procedures. Here is a closer look at what you can expect during your consultation:

Exam

Dr. Rice will perform a thorough examination of your teeth and gums to determine if you have enough bone mass to support an implant. If he discovers that you do not have enough bone density, you may need to undergo a bone grafting procedure before implant placement.

X-Rays

The exam may also include x-rays and computer tomography scans (CT scans). Dr. Rice will use the x-rays and scans to determine exactly where the implants need to be placed.

Discussion

Dr. Rice will talk with you about your current oral hygiene routine, medical and oral health history, and personal habits that might affect the success rate of your implants. For example, patients who smoke may not be eligible candidates for implants because tobacco use can affect the implant integration process.

Review of Implant Options

Dr. Rice will take some time to discuss the different types of dental implant procedures available to you, and make a recommendation based on the exam and x-ray results. Even though dental professionals have been using implants for more than 20 years, the field of implant dentistry continues to evolve. Patients today have many options to choose from, including All-on-4™ implants, implant supported dentures, and more.

Other Questions

You will also have time to receive answers to other questions during your consultation, including:

• How long will the treatment process take?
• How many appointments will I need?
• How much time will it take to recover?
• What will I need to do to take care of my implants?
• What happens during and after surgery?
