From Kildonan, how do I ask about a second implant?+
Send a request on this page or phone (204) 338-3003, and mention that you already have an implant. Your assessment would be at Unit 5, 2358 McPhillips Street, Winnipeg.
My first implant went well. Will this one go the same way?+
It may, but no one can promise that. Bone, position, your present health and the demands on this tooth all feed into the outcome, so the new site has to be judged by itself.
Can both implants be done together?+
If you have more than one gap, ask whether treating them in one plan makes sense. That depends on where they are, your bone, your health and what the final restorations need.
Will you look at my old implant as well?+
Feel free to ask for that. Knowing how the gum and restoration around it are doing is relevant, particularly when you’re planning to add another restoration to your mouth.
Does needing another implant mean something went wrong?+
Not necessarily, as teeth are lost for many reasons. Still, finding out why this tooth failed is useful, since an ongoing issue such as gum disease could affect future planning.
