To begin, Dr. Fulcher and his dental team will take scans of your mouth to get a comprehensive understanding of your oral health, and bone structure. Special focus will be on the jawbone(s), as bone density is a relevant consideration when it comes to prescribing the most appropriate option for replacing your teeth. Once the doctor makes a recommendation, he will describe the process, in detail and give you ample time to ask any questions you may have. When you are comfortable and ready to move forward, your procedure will be scheduled.

To place the titanium posts, anesthesia is administered, because the doctor will make minor incisions to insert posts that will act as replacements to your tooth roots. Typically, you will leave that appointment with the new teeth in place! Imagine heading to the dentist on Friday and returning to the office on Monday with a beautiful, new smile! These teeth will be a temporary set because the titanium posts need time to integrate firmly into your jawbone. This will happen naturally, but it takes time- usually three to six months. While this process is taking place, your custom teeth will be made. After a few months, the final, made-just-for-you replacement teeth will be placed, giving you a natural, comfortable, stable new set of teeth.

With new teeth, you will enjoy the simple things in life again, like speaking and chewing naturally. In addition to the confidence that comes with a renewed smile, you can also take comfort in knowing that My Dental Implants Center provides a lifetime guarantee on dental implants. So, why not make your free consultation appointment with Dr. Fulcher right now? You won’t regret it.
