For years, I have been searching for a viable solution for my whole mouth restoration. We all know the promises made in the United States or from abroad, from companies claiming All-on-4 or 6, or from your dentist, or from periodontists but CAN they offer an affordable solution. My search lead to a promising procedure All-on-4 or 6. After much research, an All-on-4- 6 will fail due to the lack of the required amount of implants to support the bridge and is obsolete. Any dental professional can install one, two, or three implants but what about a complete whole mouth restoration. Meaning will the implants be installed in the maximum position in your mouth and to treat the conditions, defects, injuries and esthetic aspects of your mouth, teeth, jaw, and face.
I am very vary of a team of specialists treating my whole mouth restoration as poor communications or poor relationships between the team members can have an adverse effect on your procedures. My goal was to find one individual who was qualified, passionate about his profession, and could do it all at an affordable price. I was looking for a Leonardo da Vinci who possessed the qualifications to sculptor a perfect smile for me. Dr. Motiwala has the credentials of a Certified Implantologist but more importantly to me an Oral and Maxillo Facial Surgeon. (Google – Oral and Maxillo Facial Surgeon and review the training and scope of practice they will accumulate/acquire/nurture after the demanding program).
Your CAT scan and Panoramic X-ray will determine what procedures and options will be available for your whole mouth restoration. In case, your dentist/periodontist has recommended a sinus lift to add bone height to your upper jaw there is an alternative procedure to avoid the time and costs factors by using Pterygoid implants and basal implants. Dr. Motiwala’s website offers a full explanation, pro and cons for this procedure.
In my case, I gave Dr. Motiwala free reign to design and implement his vision. My only request was that the size of my teeth should fit my mouth as I have seen many horrifying pictures when an incorrect tooth size had been chosen. After the surgery, I had little to no swelling from the extraction or from the installation of the implants. I was not disappointed by his creation, nothing short of extraordinary and have the perfect smile. I made the right choice to select Dr. Motiwala and highly recommend him to everyone.
From the consultation, to the surgery, to the fittings, to the final instructions, I was done in seven days. Usually, the procedures will take about 10 to 12 days but the holiday season more than likely affected my schedule.
As for the apprehensive people who advised you about not going to a foreign country (India) to have the implant procedures, or remarks such as you can’t believe the reviews on his website, or India is an unsafe country or whatever negative remarks they make – just remember – they are not living with your dental condition nor can they comprehend the issues we face every day. If you want to improve your quality of life, to smile again, and to regain your confidence – contact Dr. Motiwala’s office.
