With a natural feel and unrivaled stability and durability, dental implants are the gold standard in tooth replacement. Unfortunately, they’re not a suitable solution for every patient.
An individual’s health history is central to determining whether or not they’re a suitable implant candidate. The suitable dental implant candidate is typically one who:
- Is 18+ years of age
- Doesn’t currently suffer from gum disease
- Has a sufficiently healthy jawbone to support dental implants
Of course, the best way to definitively determine if dental implants are an appropriate solution for you is to receive a thorough, personalized assessment from a qualified dental care professional familiar with your medical history and current oral health.
Additionally, after implant placement, patients must commit to strong at-home oral care and a healthy, balanced diet rich in calcium, fruits, vegetables, and whole grains to help ensure long-term success.
