Though you may recognize that your dental implant journey will require multiple visits with our team, a surgical procedure, recovery, and more, we want to remind you: It’s best to remember that while you can get bogged down in the details that don’t put a huge smile on your face, you can most certainly outweigh them with the positive and with a new approach. Our Santa Rosa, CA team encourages you to take time with some beneficial reflections that you can make throughout your entire journey (which will help you remember that your decision is a fantastic one).
Consider Your Future Quality Of Life
We want you to remember, which is something we frequently bring up, to reflect on the way choosing dental implants is going to impact your quality of life. This is something that will be true on a day-to-day basis, which will then influence your general, long-term quality of life, as well! Remember, if you don’t replace your missing teeth or you choose to replace them with traditionally-supported prosthetics, you’ll deal with many stressors that can make life less than easy, enjoyable, etc. Reflect on the following details, as you are receiving implants for your smile:
- Implants will allow you to have a complete smile, rather than one with openings in it, so you can feel completely confident about your appearance
- Implants will give you stable support for your restorations, which means a smile that’s just about as stable as your natural smile, so you feel relaxed in social settings, when eating, and more
- You’ll be able to get back to enjoying eating food, rather than dealing with any stress or limitations
The (Brief) Process In The Context Of A Lifetime
You can look at your dental implant journey and feel like it’s quite long, if you’re comparing it to receiving something like a traditional denture. However, we encourage you to instead, reflect on your six-month- to year-long-journey within the context of your lifetime. Yes, you’ll be spending time and putting forth effort along the way. However, this is actually just a small blip on the timeline of your life and it is giving you back a fully functional, complete smile! How about that?
The Key Players: Long-Term Wear And Amazing Stability!
Remember throughout your dental implant journey that you’ll come out the other side with amazing stability that will likely last the rest of your life. It’s worth it!
