What to Expect From Your First Implant Consultation
A step-by-step look at the first visit, from 3D scans to your personalised treatment plan.
Thinking about an implant can feel like a big step. Knowing what happens at the first consultation makes the decision much easier.
The scan
We start with a quick 3D scan of your jaw. It is painless, takes under a minute and gives us a precise picture of your bone and nerves.
Your plan
Using the scan, your dentist explains the options, timeline and costs. You leave with a written plan and plenty of time to think it over.
Questions worth asking
How many visits will it take? What happens if I need a bone graft? What does aftercare involve? We are always happy to go through them.
