Yes, we are certainly persistent when it comes to encouraging you to come in to talk with our team. Why, you wonder? Well, because we know that in many cases, you may find yourself putting off a visit to come in to talk about oral surgery, dental implants, and more. That is, even though you want to. Then, the longer you wait and put it off, the more you think about it, stress about a visit, try to talk yourself into or out of treatments, and a very simple initial consultation can become something that actually ends up causing you some amount of anxiety and stress! What our Santa Rosa, CA team would love instead would be for you to call us before the holidays (especially if you’ve been telling yourself you’ll call us right after)!
In Honor Of Thanksgiving: 2 Implant Details To Be Thankful For
In honor of the upcoming holiday, during which you will most certainly be putting your smile to serious use (there’s a big, delicious meal to enjoy, as well as friends and family to catch up with through long-winded conversation), our Santa Rosa, CA team would like to stick with this holiday theme! To do so, let’s think about some details related to dental implants that we are all thankful for! While your list might not be identical to ours, our oral surgery team will get you started! You may find yourself nodding in agreement. Or, you may find that this helps give you the extra push you’ve been needing in order to come see us!
Why Go With A Fixed Hybrid Denture?
You’ve heard the term fixed hybrid denture and you have some understanding that it means the denture restoring your implants is going to stay in place (rather than come with a feature of removability). If you haven’t really thought through what this might mean for you and you’re currently considering all options as you replace your teeth, you may want to stay awhile and think about some benefits our Santa Rosa, CA team would like to share with you. The “fixed” detail alone may be all you need to realize you’ve found your solution!
Why Do Dental Implants Require So Much Time?
As much as you love the thought of dental implants, you may also feel just a tad stressed about the amount of time it can take to receive them. Why does the entire experience take so much time, you may ask yourself, after you’ve been considering other solutions like a traditional bridge or denture? We understand. When you have a missing tooth or multiple missing teeth, what you really want to do is to take care of it immediately, so you can get on with life! However, the exceptional and long-lasting benefits of implants may cause you to decide you’re willing to take just a little extra time. Since this is a common question our Rohnert Park, CA team is accustomed to answering, we’d like to begin with some introductory information. For a closer look at a real timeline, come on in!
Nighttime Habits That Can Harm Your Implants!
Did you know that your smile habits that you’ve either mastered (or that could be a bit better) that occur right around the time you go to bed can have an extremely significant impact on your dental implants? It’s true! When your goal is, of course, to promote their absolute success, you may still accidentally forget about some very important hazards to steer clear of as you’re prepping for dreamland. Spend just a moment of your time with our Santa Rosa, CA team as you consider some not-so-lovely habits to work on. The good news? They’re extremely easy to fix and you’ll be giving your implants the protection they need!
Why We Suggest: Never Ignore Symptoms With Dental Implants
Just about everyone is prone to wanting to ignore symptoms that crop up. There’s always the chance that a little change or moment of discomfort is really nothing at all and, since we know this to be true, we often cling to this! However, when we’re talking about your oral health with dental implants, we remind you that it’s always better to go ahead and give us a quick ring on the phone. Tell us what you have experienced. Let our Santa Rosa, CA oral surgery team check the situation out. Why, you wonder…?
3 Things Your Implants And Restorations Are Not
There’s something quite magical about dental implants and restorations. One second, you don’t have your tooth any longer. The next, you’ve got a titanium post acting as your roots (and that have actually bonded with your jawbone), it’s supporting a beautiful, lifelike artificial tooth (or teeth), and your tooth loss is a distant memory! If you are someone who goes forward thinking of your replacement teeth as natural teeth, meaning you’re a bit cautious and protective with them but you use them to eat, laugh, smile, etc., then good! However, if you have begun allowing yourself to think of them as having supernatural strength, well … it may be time to take it down a notch! Consider some reminders of what your implants and restorations are not from our Santa Rosa, CA team, so you can keep them right where they are.
Oral Surgery And Your Smile: Getting The Right Information
Remember that when you’re getting misinformation, a lot of things are going on, particularly when it comes to learning about oral surgery and your smile. First, you may find that some of the incorrect details you hear make you feel scared. You may become disappointed, when the information you gather makes you think you have fewer options (or none at all) than you expected. You may simply not like what you hear. Or, you may hear something that seems beneficial but that is simply not right. So, how to make heads or tails of how to get the facts, so you can take full advantage of all that surgery can provide for your smile? Well, our Santa Rosa, CA practice happens to have a very simple answer: See our team! Beyond that, consider some very common no-nos.
Remember: Times When Oral Surgery Is About Choice!
Within oral health care, there are absolutely times when there is something your smile needs in order to return to its good health. However, there are also other times in which coming in to talk with our Rohnert Park, CA oral surgery team is all about you making choices for your smile based on things you’ve decided you want. Are they unnecessary? Not at all! They are certainly beneficial! They simply don’t come with the urgency associated with something like extracting an infected tooth. See what we mean? Sort of getting the picture? Take a moment with us, as we remind you that in many instances, it’s absolutely up to you, which can make for a relaxing, enjoyable experience!
