By Dr. Keerthi Sudireddy
The implant journey begins with a consultation. This visit is where your suitability is assessed and your whole treatment is planned, so it is worth knowing what to expect.
At an implant consultation, the dentist reviews your health and goals, examines your mouth, and takes a 3D scan to assess bone and plan the implant precisely. You will discuss options, timeline, and a transparent cost. It is painless and the best time to ask questions. Bring your medical history and a list of any medications.
What happens
- A review of your health, medications and what you want to achieve.
- An examination of your teeth, gums and the gap.
- A 3D scan to assess bone and plan the implant position.
- A discussion of options, timeline and a clear, itemised quote.
How to prepare
- Bring your medical history and medication list.
- Note any questions about cost, timeline and recovery.
- Mention conditions like diabetes or if you smoke.
Questions worth asking
Ask about the implant system, whether you need bone grafting, the timeline, and what aftercare looks like. See the full procedure steps.
