If you've never had a dental implant consultation before, it's normal to wonder what you're actually walking into. Will someone try to sell you something before you've even sat down? Will it hurt? Will you leave with more questions than you came in with?

Here's the honest, step-by-step version of what happens at Amazing Smiles — so you know exactly what to expect before you ever pick up the phone.

Before You Arrive

You don't need to prepare much. If you have them, it helps to bring:

  • A photo ID and your insurance card, if you have dental insurance
  • A list of any medications you're currently taking
  • Any recent dental X-rays or records, if you have them on hand — not required, but it can save a step

That's really it. You don't need to have made any decisions yet. Most people who walk through our doors haven't fully decided on anything — they're here to find out what's actually possible for their situation.

What Happens During the Visit

  1. Check-in & health history. A short conversation about your medical history and what's brought you in — missing teeth, failing teeth, uncomfortable dentures, or just wanting to know your options.
  2. CBCT 3D scan. A quick, painless 3D scan of your jaw. This is what lets us see your actual bone structure and anatomy — not a guess, an actual map.
  3. Clinical exam. Dr. Jandali examines your teeth, gums, and bone levels directly, and reviews the 3D scan with you on screen so you can see exactly what he's seeing.
  4. A real conversation about your options. Not a sales pitch — a direct explanation of what your anatomy actually supports, whether that's a single implant, a fixed bridge, full arch treatment, or something else entirely.
  5. Cost and financing, explained plainly. If treatment makes sense for you, we'll walk through what it costs and the financing paths available — without pressure to decide that day.

The entire visit typically takes about 60–90 minutes, most of which is the exam and conversation — not paperwork.

Why the 3D Scan Matters So Much

A lot of practices will look in your mouth and give you a general answer. The CBCT scan is what separates an educated guess from an actual plan. It shows real bone density, real nerve position, and real anatomy — which is exactly why Dr. Jandali's approach is anatomy-driven rather than following a fixed protocol. Some patients need more support than a generic plan would offer; some need less. The scan is what tells us which.

What You Won't Experience

You won't be handed off to a salesperson. You won't be pressured into signing anything same-day. And you won't be told you need a fixed number of implants because "that's just how it's done" — treatment planning here starts with your actual bone and anatomy, not a template.

"We don't decide your treatment before we've actually looked. The scan tells us what your jaw can support — and that's what drives the plan, not a sales quota."

If You Decide to Move Forward

If treatment is right for you and you're ready, we'll walk through scheduling and financing together. If you want time to think, that's completely fine too — there's no pressure, and no expiration on the information you leave with.

Your consultation includes a full CBCT 3D scan and a direct conversation with Dr. Jandali — a $750 value, at no cost to you.

A Quick Note on Cost

The consultation itself is always free, regardless of what you decide afterward. If treatment does make sense, costs vary by case — full arch treatment starts from $18,500 per arch, with financing available starting at $349/month.* The exact plan and price are only ever given after your anatomy has actually been reviewed, never before.

*Based on phased treatment option, 5-year term, with approved credit. Financing rates vary by lender and creditworthiness.
