Who Are Dental Implants For?
Dental implants are suitable for most adults in good health, but there are certain lifestyle habits that can affect your fitness if you smoke, have gum disease, or have had radiotherapy around the jaw. You cannot have a dental implant if you are under the age of 18 because the jawbone is still growing.
Before starting implant treatment, you will need a clinical evaluation with an implant dentist to check your suitability. They will evaluate your mouth, take X-rays and have a complete medical history to make sure the implants are the right solution for you.
Some people don't have enough bone in their jaws to naturally hold the implant, which means you may need supportive treatment, such as a bone graft or sinus lift, before placing the implant. If this is necessary, your dentist will review the process with you in detail and ensure that you are fully informed about the procedure.
Benefits of dental implants
Many people prefer dental implants because they are discreet and long lasting. We know that people with missing teeth feel self-conscious. With an implant, we hope you can regain your self-confidence, whether it's when you smile, eat or talk.
Some of the advantages are:
Discreet: Implants match the shape, color and size of your other teeth so they look natural and feel comfortable
Fixed and long-lasting: Implants can last as long as your natural teeth, provided they are properly cared for. They're also fixed to your jawbone, so you don't have to worry about removing them as you would with other solutions like dentures.
Prevents bone loss: Dental implants function like natural teeth, stimulating your jaw and preventing bone loss
Restores function: You can enjoy all your favorite foods that you may not be able to get with missing teeth, such as apples and meat. They also don't affect your speech.
