What to Expect at ARCHPOINT

First Visit Consultation

You can expect personalized care from your very first visit. Every relationship at ARCHPOINT begins with a free consultation. You will tour our facility and meet with our treatment coordinator, who will assess your suitability for dental implants. You will also meet with our doctors who will perform an i-CAT scan and oral exam to determine the best procedure for you. Our on-site financial coordinator will be available to provide all the necessary financial information. At ARCHPOINT, your first visit will include ample time to get thorough answers for all your questions so you can move forward without any concerns.

Day of Surgery

Most procedures take just a few hours being scheduled early in the morning and completed by the afternoon. You will be sedated for the entire procedure and recover in the comfort of a private room. Once you wake up, you will be fitted with a temporary arch and then home by early evening. Post-surgery pain is minor and can usually be treated with over-the-counter medications like ibuprofen. Most patients can expect to resume normal activities the next day.

Post-Surgery

Patients that have selected the ARCHPOINT Total Smile will typically wear a temporary prosthesis for three months. This timeframe allows for proper adjustments and integration between your dental implants and bone. Once ready, ARCHPOINT will use high-end, lightweight materials to design and set in place your permanent prosthesis. A removable implant denture is also available to our patients.

Aftercare Hygiene Services

Unlike other dental implant centers in Dallas and Fort Worth, ARCHPOINT offers follow-up care. Our specialists recommend patients visit every six months for a routine follow-up to have their dental implants thoroughly cleaned and properly examined.
