When you get to the end of your dental implant adventure, implants are in place and restored, and you’re back to life with a full smile, you might enjoy a sense of renewal and relief! You have a complete smile again and it’s something you just don’t need to worry about anymore. How wonderful! With this in mind, our Santa Rosa, CA team encourages you to consider a few things to do (and to think about) in terms of this next chapter with your smile!
#1: You Should Celebrate!
Yes, we know you probably feel all sorts of accomplishment and relief now that you’ve got your dental implant experience behind you. You powered through, you went through oral surgery, your implants were restored, there was much planning and showing up to visits, and here you are. Take a moment to reflect! You made a wonderful choice for your oral health and you can officially put tooth loss behind you. Find a way to give yourself a little pat on the back and to truly revel in the moment!
#2: You Shouldn’t Take A Vacation From Care
Of course, we think you should celebrate the fact that you have dental implants and that, really what that means, is that you have a complete smile! Like anything else, with this achievement comes a bit of responsibility. You may be tempted to give yourself a week or so of ignoring your usual dental care, falling asleep without brushing your teeth, eating things that are probably too hard for your smile, etc. However, remember: With oral health, there’s no wiggle room! Stick to your usual excellent maintenance, so you ensure the success of your newly completed smile.
#3: Don’t Be A Stranger!
It’s true, your smile is complete now and you have a much more thorough understanding of dental implants than you had when you began. However, that doesn’t mean your journey is completely through! When you have questions about your smile, you think something just isn’t right with your implants, etc., always remember to give our team a call and to schedule a visit if you think you need one! We always look forward to hearing from you and helping you keep your smile in wonderful condition.
