Baton Rouge Dentist Announces Free Dental Implant Consultations

August 30, 2016 – – Tiger Smile Family Dentistry in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, has announced that they are now offering free consultations to first time dental implant patients. The dental office states that the consultation will include a complimentary 3D imaging CT scan.

“We want our patients to have a better understanding about dental implants and how much more beautiful their smiles can be,” says Cecilia L. Luong, DDS, dentist with Tiger Smile Dental.

Dr. Luong states that many patients are unaware of what dental implants are, what the procedures entail, and the overall cost. She points out that she is hoping that the free consultation will help patients to better understand and ultimately choose implants for their dental needs.

Dental implants are titanium fixtures that act as a root for the teeth. They can hold single teeth or full dentures, and are placed into the bone or fused with it for support. They are used to replace a single missing tooth or even arches of missing teeth.

“Complete arches can be restored rather easily,” says Dr. Luong. “Dentures can be snapped onto the implants so that you can still remove them, or they can be permanently fixed. Our consultation will help you to determine which method would be best for you situation, as all patients are different.”

Dr. Luong says that unlike other procedures, dental implants do not require surrounding teeth to be shaved down or removed. She says that the success rate of implants have shown to be much higher than bridges, and that dentures secured with implants are much more likely to stay in place when eating or speaking, and that they are more comfortable than traditional dentures that must be held in place with glue or other adhesives.

Tiger Smile Dental states that the first step in determining if implants are the best choice is to schedule a consultation. Dr. Luong states that her staff will answer all questions that patients may have during the consultation, ensuring that they fully understand all elements of the procedure and the benefits of implants over other methods.
