At Aura Dental Centre, we know that choosing dental implants is an important, long-term investment in your oral health. As the new year approaches, many patients begin exploring implant treatment to restore missing teeth, improve chewing ability, and renew confidence in their smile. Starting your planning now gives you time to understand the process, organize your schedule, and make informed decisions before beginning treatment.
Understanding How Dental Implants Work
A dental implant is a replacement tooth root, distinct from dentures, it is carefully placed into the jawbone, where it fuses through a natural process called osseointegration. Once healed, the implant supports a custom crown that blends seamlessly with your natural teeth. With careful work and habit, we believe that implants can look and function just like your old natural teeth, offering stability, comfort, and durability.
Dental implants are designed to prevent bone loss, maintain facial structure, and offer a secure foundation for chewing and speaking. At Aura Dental Centre, we offer several implant options including single-tooth implants, implant-supported bridges, and full-mouth solutions for those missing more than just a few teeth. Whatever the issue, we can work to solve it. Planning all of this early can also help determine which of these is right for your present and future needs.
Why Planning Before the New Year Matters
Beginning your implant journey now helps you stay ahead of scheduling, preparation, and treatment phases. Getting dental implants can involve multiple steps including consultation, digital imaging, treatment planning, surgical placement, and crown restoration—so allowing enough time between each stage ensures the best outcome.
At Aura Dental Centre, we can use 3D imaging and CT scans for precise treatment planning. These tools allow our team to evaluate jawbone density, nerve positions, and implant placement accuracy. These foundational steps are essential to long-term success and cannot be rushed.
Planning before the holidays also gives patients the opportunity to align timelines with work schedules, family commitments, and insurance renewal periods.
What to Consider Before Beginning Your Implant Journey
Below is a quick list of things to consider before getting dental implants, with some of the most important factors to keep in mind:
- Bone Health and Preparation: Bone grafting can sometimes be needed if teeth have been missing for a long time, or if there are any underlying bone issues. Aura Dental Centre can evaluate your jawbone using advanced 3D imaging to determine readiness and overall jaw health.
- Treatment Timeline: Implant treatment is a multi-step process that includes consultation, imaging, placement, healing, and final restoration.
- Type of Implant Solution: Whether you need a single implant, an implant-supported bridge, or a more comprehensive restoration, early planning helps determine your best option.
- Budgeting and Insurance Planning: Many patients can benefit from arranging their implanted investments around annual insurance limits or health-spending accounts.
- Scheduling Considerations: Starting now helps you secure preferred appointment times and ensures your smile transformation stays on track for spring or summer.
