Dental implants are an excellent option for most healthy adults who maintain good oral hygiene, have healthy gums, and ideally don't smoke. Implants can only be placed once the jaw has finished growing, so they aren't suitable for patients under 18.
We Plan Comprehensively for Implant Dentistry
Certain lifestyle and medical factors may affect the success of your implant treatment. These include smoking, excessive alcohol consumption and conditions such as diabetes, which can impact the initial healing process and potentially reduce long-term success rates. Each patient's situation is unique, so we thoroughly assess before recommending any implant-based treatment.
The quality and density of your jawbone also play a crucial role in the success of dental implants. If you have insufficient bone tissue, don't worry—you may still be a candidate for implants. In such cases, we can perform bone grafting or augmentation procedures to create a more suitable foundation for your implant.

The best way to determine your candidacy for dental implants is to book a consultation with one of our dentists. You'll leave that appointment with a clear understanding of your procedure options, treatment timelines, cost, and payment options.
