So, when we talk about dental implants, they are a great option if you have to have a tooth removed. There’s two 100% promised guarantees I will give you about the implant. You will never get a cavity on your implant, and you’ll never need a root canal on your implant. So, those are really a lot of reasons why people end up losing their teeth and having to have an implant, or having a root canal retreated, having a cavity, you know, having a new crown, all these different things you don’t have to have with an implant. An implant is like a tooth in the sense of, it has to be cared for like a tooth. You have to floss, you have to brush.
It’s not a magic bullet that we put it in and no more worries ever. It’s super incredible in the sense of there’s certain things that don’t happen to it. It’s a great tooth replacement. It functions just like your own tooth. I mean, the reality is you shouldn’t really know, oh, that’s an implant. Oh yeah, that’s my natural tooth. They should pretty much feel the same. If you’re contemplating or have been told that you might have to lose a tooth, we would love to see you. We’d love to take the necessary information, whether that be a CT scan, and sit down and just chat with you and let you know what your options are, what the solutions are to your specific situation, and then you will determine what works best for you.
