Dental Implants without Fear
If you’re a bit anxious as you look forward to
dental
implant surgery, you’re
certainly not alone. Most people feel somewhat nervous about dental care in general
– and these feelings may increase in the days and weeks leading up to your
procedure.
Here are 5 helpful points to keep in mind that
will ease your concerns and help you look forward to your surgery with
confidence.
- YOUR ORAL SURGEON IS A PRO
Dr. Geldzahler has worked with thousands of
patients in the Livingston and West Orange area. He’s accustomed to
seeing the worried look that often shows up on a patient’s face just before a
procedure. For that reason, he takes special care when it comes to explaining
what will happen and what to expect. This includes showing you a model of the
procedure and reviewing everything step by step for your peace of mind.
Dr.
Geldzahler is calm throughout your procedure
because he is comfortable and confident he can give you the smile you want.
Whatever questions you have ahead of time, or on the day of your dental implant
surgery, he will be happy to address.
- YOU CAN BE ASLEEP FOR THE PROCEDURE
With oral surgery, you can choose anesthesia
or sedation, either given orally or through an IV drip. Though many people
choose to stay awake during dental implant surgery, many others choose to sleep
through it for the sake of comfort and relaxation. Either way, Dr. Geldzahler
is happy to accommodate you.
- THE PROCESS IS SIMPLE
With dental implants, the goal is to attach an
artificial tooth root to the jawbone beneath your gums. Though you may wonder
how in the world that’s possible, it’s helpful to know that this is a routine
process and you are in good hands.
In your preliminary exam, which includes a CT
scan, Dr. Geldzahler will map exactly where and how he will be working. The
actual surgery will take from 1 to 2 hours and each step will be carefully
planned ahead of time. Read More…
