Am I a Candidate for Dental Implants?

Sunday, May 25th, 2008

There are a few things to consider to determine if you are a candidate for implants.  First, you must have enough bone in the area of the missing teeth to provide enough anchorage of the implant.  The good news is we can do bone grafting to help this process out, but in some cases implants won’t be the right choice.

Secondly, If you smoke we will highly recommend you quitting before placing your implant.  Smokers have a higher risk of the implant failing, so we highly recommend quitting.

If you are generally healthy then chances are very high that you are a great candidate for dental implants.
