Preparation Is key
Preparation is everything. Dr. Salama says, “My biggest failure will never be a lack of preparation. I think it’s more important.”
Less Painful Than a Bone Graft
When we do All-On-X and angle the implants and give them the implants or even with zygo and pterygoid implants, we hear patients come back because they’re not being grafted with less swelling and with less post-operative discomfort. So when people say to me, “Oh, that sounds really painful, All-On-X,” You know what? That sounds really painful. What I tell them surprisingly is that patients tell me that they don’t really feel the type of pain, discomfort or even swelling that they get from a standard dental surgical procedure.
Educated Dental Patient
For Dr. Salama, their best patients are those who want to be educated, believe it or not. Hear more about how important an educated patient is.
You Can’t Afford To Do It Wrong
“But you can’t afford to do it wrong. Meaning that you better not have to do it a second and third time because that’s when enormous cost, not only in money but also in psychological element, the time in the chair, the healing of the scar tissue.”
You Need Bone
Dr. Salama says you need a certain amount of bone structure in order for implants to be placed when considering this kind of work.
More Youthful Appearance
‘By opening the bite, all of a sudden certain wrinkles go away, your face looks fuller, your face has more longevity and it looks more youthful in appearance. We can change the lower third of the face, both in fullness and in height immediately.” – Dr. Salama
Every Patient Is Different.
Every single patient is different from the others. Different people with different reasons result in different assessments.
Dental Implant Options For Those Without Bone
They just don’t have enough bone for us to work with. We can then use, as we said earlier, an extra-oral source like the cheekbones, zygomatic implants and pterygoid plates, which are behind the maxilla volmer process floor of the nose behind the front teeth. These areas can be used to anchor implants that can then support a prosthesis. This can be done but needs an extra amount of training.
Clean Slate
Start a new, clean slate.
People Can’t See You
It’s a horrible way to feel because what happens when you remove that aspect of somebody. People can’t see the real you.
Finding the Complete Dental Practice
Dr. Salama tells us that implants can fail just like teeth can if you don’t take care of them and if they’re not done well. It is not all about the materials to be used.
The Importance of an “All-On-4 to 6”
Importance of a Specialist.
Not Smiling in the Mirror
For many people, what they see in the mirror is not how they envision themselves. They look and they want to smile but what they see is something they’re not proud of.
Any Dentist Can Do This?
The fact is that they’re not specialized right out of school.
All In a Day
“Patients could come in after years of neglect. After years of contemplating, should I do it? I don’t know enough about it. Can I afford it? Do I really want to go through all the discomfort and pain? Whatever things they talk themselves out of and in one day they can go from infection, pain and something they’re not proud of and immediately, in one sitting, in one day they will have a new set of teeth, even though if they make them, they may not be their finals they are functional, beautiful, and done in a day.” – Dr. Salama
