How Can I Prepare for Dental Implants Years Before I’m Ready?

full arch dental implants mt pleasant pa
When you’re finally ready to embark on your dental implant journey, you’ll spend the better part of a year getting ready. But if you aren’t quite ready to commit to a treatment plan just yet, there are still things you can do now to make things easier on yourself when you’re finally ready to get your dental implants. Take a look at what you and your dentist can do now.

Oral Hygiene
One of the best things you can do to prepare for dental implants is to diligently care for your gums and any remaining teeth you have. Even if you don’t have any more teeth to lose, gum disease can still attach the jawbone underneath your gums and hurt your candidacy for dental implants.

Tooth Extractions
Holding on to failing teeth can hurt your candidacy for dental implants. Failing teeth can harbor bacteria that erodes both the gums and the jawbone underneath the gums. Removing failing teeth will make it easier to care for the rest of your mouth.

Bone Preservation
After a tooh falls out or is pulled, the socket it was once rooted it begins to deteriorate. When teeth are healthy, the jawbone gets stimulation from the roots of teeth as you bite and chew. When that stimulate goes away, because the teeth have fallen out or have been extracted, the jawbone begins to breakdown.
Bone preservation procedures can help protect the jawbone from erosion, ensuring that you have enough jawbone left to support dental implants when you’re finally ready to embark on your dental implant journey.

Savings
Comparable to a car purchase, many people will need to finance their dental implants and make monthly payments. Just as a down payment can help lower the monthly payment for the car, so can money down help with financing dental implants.
