Sometimes, patients come to our dental implant clinic here in San Francisco, even when they’ve been suffering from bad teeth for a very long time. There are many reasons they chose to wait until now: fear of oral surgery or fear of the cost of dental implants.
Sometimes, they just thought they could ‘tough it out.’ A person could feel pride in handling things on their own. The truth is, this isn’t an episode of the show Survivor. And trying to get through challenging moments with bad teeth is not necessary. Here are some regular struggles a Bay Area resident can experience if they have broken or missing teeth;
- Chewing Challenges. Someone may love a great steak, but even medium rare has become painful to chew on. They might try to chew on only one side of the mouth to avoid putting pressure on a sensitive area. It can create an imbalance in the mouth and add more wear and tear to the “good side.” of the mouth.
- Maneuvering Gum Disease. Some may think stepping up their dental flossing practices can help manage inflamed gums, but by then, it may be too late. Swollen gums can occur due to an infection, and that’s going to take more than flossing. The Cleveland Clinic shares a post about swollen gums.
- Enduring “shifting” teeth. One missing tooth can cause adjacent teeth to shift and realign, resulting in bite issues and other dental problems. Even a single-tooth dental implant can make a difference.
If you like to watch Survivor, here’s a video about the show’s funniest challenge moments.

Dental implants are one long-term way to overcome the challenges of bad and missing teeth. Additionally, there are affordable payment plans available to help alleviate concerns about the cost of dental implants. No Bay Area person should try to survive with a row of unhealthy teeth. The Teeth in One Day implant surgery in our San Francisco clinic can be the answer to finally moving past the pain and discomfort of unhealthy teeth. The procedure is also known as ‘All on Four,’ and it offers several advantages. First, Dr. Alex Rabinovich provides a complimentary consultation to discuss a patient’s specific struggles. Then, there is a complete examination. Dr. Rabinovich’s multi-tiered background in dental and maxillofacial surgery provides a deeper insight into an individual’s eligibility. And if the Teeth in One Day process is the best choice, he will know!
Healthline has an informational post about the survival rate of dental implants. Like any oral surgery procedure, there will be time to prepare the mouth for the dental implants. There will also be a discussion about pain management and recovery. Finally, after the mouth is ready, it only takes another visit to snap in a row of beautiful teeth. And once patients experience life with their new dental implants, they wonder why they tried to survive without them! No one should put themselves in a situation where they suffer. And they are not stuck on an island with no support. The opportunity for affordable dental implants like Teeth in One Day in San Francisco is available for those ready to accept the challenge!
