What does the full plan involve?
Ask about surgical stages, healing periods, temporary tooth options, additional procedures and whether referral is needed. The surgical and restorative parts should be explained together.
What are the alternatives and long-term needs?
Bridges and dentures may be relevant alternatives. Discuss risks, total costs and cleaning requirements. Implants and their restorations need ongoing care and can require further treatment.
