Dental Implants: Start At The End (And Work Back) 

For some, the idea of a metered, step-by-step approach to a big shift is wonderful. You don’t even have to worry about what’s at the end of the journey because it’s there! What’s not to love about this? For others, that whole “take it one step at a time and you’ll see results later on” is a big disaster. It causes anxiety because there’s too much unknown. With that said, if you’re considering dental implants but you really don’t love the “start with step one of many” approach, then starting at the end and working your way backwards? Well, our Santa Rosa, CA team thinks that’s probably going work much better for you!

The Final Result: A Complete Smile

If you’re thinking about dental implants, don’t start by thinking about your consultation, the steps toward placement, etc. Instead, begin at the end. The end, of course, includes you standing at the finish line with a complete smile that’s composed of implants and restorations. Think about how this might feel and whether you think this is a conclusion worthy of your time and effort. If so, work your way back a bit further!

Consider The Journey

Now, remember that there are multiple steps that you will need to move through in order to reach that finish line of a complete smile with dental implants. For you, our team encourages you to consider these steps as a single journey. Generally speaking, this experience will include a dental implant placement procedure, healing and recovery, time to allow your implants to fuse with your jawbone (osseointegration), and restoration placement. Remember, osseointegration is what makes the support that your restorations receive so exceptionally stable. Sound okay? Good! You’re making strides and this whole implant thing is starting to sound like a possibility.

Now, For The Beginning

You’ve reached the end! Or, should we say: The very beginning? Once you have worked your way back from the end of your experience to the very start, if you realize that receiving dental implants looks like a step-filled process you can certainly feel good about, then it’s time to see us. Set up that consultation, so you can make sure you’ve got the details sorted out and you can get the process going! Remember, this is a wonderful time to speak with our team, ask questions, and get any last details clarified that cause you uncertainty, so you feel you’re seeing the smaller steps and the bigger picture with ease.
