As mentioned in my previous blog post I have canceled my visit at my paradontologist end of this year. It is all taking too long so I called my dentist and asked her what to do. She suggest to make an appointment with an implant surgeon and to discuss next steps with him/her. I have scheduled this appointment a few weeks ago but didn’t update my site until now. So tomorrow: my first visit @implant surgeon.
I’m very curious about what will happen. Probably I’ll have to explain everything over again, but OK I’m getting used to it. I’ll mention the story of the bone grafting (about the braces and the visits i have had at the periodontist). The visit tomorrow might drop some light on the questions I have. I hope I don’t have to undergo X-rays again…
Will keep you posted!
I’m just getting caught up with your story after linking over from Archwired. It’s amazing how many experts can have different approaches and opinions. When I got braces in 2006, I think in my head I would have loved a full mouth with perfect implants. But the reality of the situation was braces were far more realistic. I’m forever grateful to myself for going through with all of the effort and nervousness it took to get my smile to be something I didn’t/don’t mind showing. I hope your dental/orthodontic journey goes well. It’s a lot to take in and get used to, but once you get going, it’s not nearly as stressful as the lead up to all of the appointments and decisions.
Thank you for responding to my blog! Hope to get going soon. Waiting for some feedback from my dentist. It is about times things go forward now!
