Blog Dental Implant Consultation in Plano, TX

Overview of dental implant consultations

A consultation for dental implants is a time to assess how many you need and if an implant is a possibility for you. During this consultation, x-rays and a scan of your mouth are used to assess the health of your jawbone, the position of your other teeth, and what is needed to place an implant in a space with a missing tooth. Dr. Joseph or Dr. Schell can answer all your questions and concerns. Sometimes you may need more bone to support an implant, so the doctor may suggest a bone graft. At times your jawbone may not be able to handle an implant even with a graft. They will explain the procedure of getting an implant. Your x-rays and scans are then sent to our implant specialist, and we will email you the treatment plan which contains the cost of the procedure.
