Your Dental Insurance and Health Savings Account
If you happen to have a dental insurance plan, then you have benefits that will be available to use until midnight on December 31st. If you have not taken advantage of them, they just vanish! If you carry a health savings account, then you could be earning funds that again may vanish unless you use them before the year ends. If you have lost one or more teeth and want to address the issue with implant dentistry, then talk to our team. We can help you understand your coverage and what is available to use, so we can plan tooth replacement and start you on the journey to a full smile now, before the hectic holiday season is here. Let’s use your dental benefits to address tooth loss!
The Initial Examination
The process of using your dental benefits to address missing teeth starts with an initial examination. With digital imaging, we can take a close look at your smile to assess the cause and severity of your tooth loss. We can then decide if you need care to manage issues like gum disease to ensure implants do not fail. We also find out if you need to have your jaw strengthened with options like grafting or a sinus lift. Our team also wants to find the best angle, position, and depth to support your dental implants and start you on the path to a full and beautiful smile, which could happen in only one visit for some.
Implant Dentistry Solutions
If you have an individual missing tooth, we could insert a single tooth implant, which we complete with a custom crown, ensuring a lifelike appearance and a durable chewing surface. If you have a larger gap, we could support a bridge or even a partial denture. Our team could even support a complete set of new teeth with as few as three to four dental implants per arch, and often in one visit. Teeth in a day is possible! If you have any questions about addressing tooth loss with your dental benefits, then contact our team today.
