4 Signs That Dental Implants Are Right for You

When it comes to replacing missing teeth, dental implants are becoming a more and more popular option. But how will you know if you’re qualified to get them? In order to be considered a dental implant candidate, you need to be able to meet certain criteria. Below is a closer look at 4 characteristics that could indicate that dental implants are a good fit for your smile.

Keeping the Whole Implant Process Under One Roof

While many dental offices advertise implant services, some of them must refer their patients to outside specialists who use different pricing structures to have their prosthetic devices placed. Consulting with a trained prosthodontist, however, can allow you to keep your entire treatment in one office, which can help the placement and payment processes go more smoothly.

Many people seeking dental implants will need to receive preliminary procedures such as bone grafts and periodontal therapy before they can qualify for the treatment. It might be a great idea to seek out a prosthodontist who is equipped to perform these treatments in their office.

Prestigious Dental Implant Qualifications

Many reputable organizations offer certificates to qualifying providers that indicate they have achieved significant mastery over the dental implant process. It’s best to look for a prosthodontist who holds memberships with associations like:

  • The American College of Prosthodontists
  • The American Academy of Maxillofacial Prosthetics
  • The Academy of Osseointegration

An Impressive Portfolio of Previous Treatments

An experienced implant dentist should have detailed before-and-after photos of their previous work so prospective patients can get an idea of the results they can expect to achieve. Reviewing these images and hearing some of the details of the treatments a dentist has performed can give you a better idea of the degree of the prosthodontist’s expertise and help you determine if you are comfortable receiving care from them.

Don’t entrust your new smile to an underqualified dentist. An experienced prosthodontist with the qualities listed here may be the best professional to install your new dental implants.
