Each patient is an individual and we like knowing that individual. All of our new patients are met in our pre-clinical interview and educational conference room. It's a room away from the dental chair where Dr. Chun can introduce herself, find out about you, why you're here to see us, and what we need to accomplish, all making it awesome for you, the patient. Please assist us at the time of your initial visit to the office by providing the following information:
A natural tooth consists of a root and a crown. If you compare natural teeth to implant-supported replacement teeth, you’ll see they have the same basic parts. Both have a crown (the visible part used to chew food). Both have a root that holds the tooth securely under the gum and is anchored into the jaw. The difference is that the implant is made of titanium – the same time-tested material used by surgeons for artificial joints. When you lose a tooth, you lose both the root and the crown.
