By Ladonna Chambers


If you are missing a single tooth or even multiple teeth, there are ways to go about getting that beautiful smile you have always wanted. Start looking for information about dental implants. There are great doctors out there that work specifically in this field to replace missing teeth. See about getting an office visit to go over your options. They can explain what to expect from their services.

While most people will go with bridges for replacement of one tooth that is missing, there are ways to save the surrounding teeth. Bridges require surrounding teeth to be shaved down and then crowns placed. With an implant, no other teeth are involved. They simply place the implant and crown for the single area. This keeps your other teeth from being touched. This option works for more than one tooth as well. Even dentures can be implanted for someone missing every tooth.

The minimal surgical procedure places a titanium rod into the bone below the gum. A ceramic crown is then put into the area. No other teeth will be involved. For someone that would be unable to get an implant for various reasons, there are choices still to be had.

Look for a clinic that have board certifications. You want to get the best level of care available to you. It is important to find someone that has many years in this area. If you are using insurance for your work, verify the clinic you visit accepts your insurance. This can keep you from experiencing billing problems. Your dental or medical providers website should carry information on contracted dental offices. Try finding information that a former patient has posted. You should also be able to view pictures of completed work.

Television has placed a huge importance on someones smile. People can judge someone on their smile as well. People with big beautiful smiles seem to have more confidence and it shows. Look for a doctor that can give you that celebrity look. Then you can walk around with an air of importance and feeling good about yourself.

Dental phobias are increasing. This should not stop you from getting seen. They can put some headphones on you and let you watch a movie while they work on you. If you have a more complex fear, they can offer anesthesia to place you under while work is performed. A full health screening will be done prior to that type of service to make sure you will not encounter any problems during the procedure. Waking up after your care is over with can be a great experience.

Expect a comprehensive treatment guide to be given to you at your first appointment. This form should give you a complete list of pricing and what your expected portion will be if insurance is being used. If you need to make financial arrangements, many locations can offer some sort of financing. Always know what your portion will be prior to your appointment to avoid any problems and having to reschedule the visit.

Look on the internet for information on dental implants to see if this is something that would work for you. Try narrowing down the field by specific needs and questions. If insurance is involved, this can narrow it down further. Try asking around to see if someone you know can recommend a doctor to you. Look up work that was previously done to see what you can expect.
