Your smile is one of your most prominent and noticeable features. How you feel about your smile can directly influence your self-esteem. Lack of oral care can transcend into deeper dental issues.
Our team is devoted to helping clients love their grins! Dr. Sandy Crocker, Dr. Peter Mitchell & Associates in Kelowna understand that at first, dental implant therapy can sound a bit scary. However, this procedure has been perfected to become one of the best tooth replacement options. If genetic factors or damaged teeth need to be amended, full replacement arches may be an excellent option for you to consider.
Your Secure New Smile
Single dental implants are commonly used to replace missing teeth and dental implant bridges can fill in slightly more involved spaces. However, if multiple teeth are up for repair, we may consider looking at full arch replacement. Often, only four dental implants are strategically placed to secure the entire upper or lower arch.
Minimizing your dental discomfort and maximizing your healthy smile are among our top priorities. Rest assured that Dr. Sandy Crocker is among the top providers of dental surgery and IV Sedation options in Kelowna. Enjoy your complete dental implant experience, pre and post-operative care at our dental office conveniently located on Springfield Road. Skip the out of town travel or hospital bookings and enjoy complete comfort at the same dental office and expert dental team you are familiar with!
Every client is unique and not everyone is automatically a candidate for dental implant therapy. Reviewing your up to date medical history and X-Rays provides us with vital information. It is essential that your bone density is adequate throughout your mandible and maxilla to support full osseointegration.
Some clients may have to undergo bone grafting procedures as a pre-requisite treatment to prepare the jaw for the surgically inserted dental implants. The consultation is the perfect time to discuss current lifestyle factors that may inhibit or enhance healing. Smokers, for example, may have a delayed healing response.
We can give you an outline of what to expect throughout every facet of the procedure and are happy to discuss payment options once we have an accurate estimate. We will explain the timeline involved with extracting remaining teeth, surgically inserting dental implants, along with what to do and not do during healing.
Once your titanium posts are healed, the abutment can be attached in preparation for the finishing crown. Maintaining your brushing, flossing and swishing routine after we give you the ok, is the best way to protect your new smile. Dr. Sandy Crocker, Dr. Peter Mitchell & Associates are dedicated to providing you with all of the information you require to make an informed decision.
Regain Your Chewing & Smiling Capacity!
Imagine hosting those summer BBQ’s once again and being able to enjoy your favourite grilled steak or corn on the cob! Dental implant therapy requires plenty of healing and soft foods long before you will be ready to tackle certain delicious options; however, if you follow instructions and maintain your aftercare checkups, we know you will be ready to enjoy those tasty, chewier foods once again.
We look forward to seeing you soon and discussing whether full replacement arches or overdentures are a viable dental implant option for your specific case. Proudly serving the entire Okanagan!
