What Is a Dental Implant Consultation?

Dentist Poquoson

A dental implant consultation is a detailed appointment where we gather the information needed to determine if implants are the right treatment for you. We begin by reviewing your medical and dental history, followed by a thorough examination of your teeth, gums, and jawbone. Digital X-rays or 3D imaging may be taken to evaluate bone density and ensure there is enough support for an implant.

This consultation is also your opportunity to ask questions and learn about the process in detail. We explain how implants are placed, what recovery looks like, and the benefits they provide compared to other restorative options. If implants are appropriate, we will create a customized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs. By the end of your consultation, you will have the knowledge and confidence to decide whether dental implants are the right solution for restoring your smile.

Because of sleep apnea, I needed to explore options to help me sleep better. Dr. Harper introduced me to several different options. Together we decided that a mouth appliance was worth trying. I’ve had the appliance for over a year. I’ve been extremely happy with the results. I am now sleeping better and feeling more rested in the morning. The appliance fits right in my mouth, no hoses or masks. Thank you!.
