If you’re considering dental implants, you may wonder, “Am I a suitable candidate for dental implants?”

Key factors that determine if you are a suitable candidate for dental implants

Am I a suitable candidate for dental implantsSeveral key factors are considered to determine if you are a suitable candidate for dental implants. These factors include:

  1. Overall Health: Your general health plays a crucial role. Candidates should be in good overall health to undergo surgery and heal properly. Certain medical conditions or medications may affect candidacy, so it’s essential to discuss your medical history with your dentist or oral surgeon.
  2. Oral Health: A healthy mouth is vital. Good oral hygiene and the absence of active gum disease (periodontitis) are essential. Any existing dental issues, such as cavities or infections, should be addressed before implant placement.
  3. Bone Health: Sufficient jawbone density and volume are required to support dental implants. If there is bone loss due to factors like gum disease or tooth extraction, bone grafting may be necessary to augment the bone.
  4. Gum Health: Healthy gum tissues are essential to provide stability for the implant. Gum disease should be treated and controlled before implant placement.
  5. Age: Dental implants are generally suitable for adults, as jawbone development is typically complete. However, there is no strict age limit, and older adults can often receive dental implants if they meet other criteria.
  6. Smoking: Smoking can affect the success of dental implants. Smokers may have a higher risk of complications, so quitting or reducing smoking is advised for better outcomes.
  7. Commitment to Oral Hygiene: Candidates should be committed to maintaining good oral hygiene after implant placement. Regular dental check-ups and proper oral care are crucial for long-term success.
  8. Expectations: Realistic expectations are important. Candidates should understand the limitations and potential risks associated with dental implants and have clear goals for their dental restoration.
  9. Customised Evaluation: Each case is unique. Our dentist or oral surgeon will conduct a thorough evaluation, including dental imaging, to assess your specific situation and determine candidacy.
  10. Treatment Planning: A personalised treatment plan is created to address your dental needs and goals. This plan outlines the number of implants needed, the type of restoration (crown, bridge, denture), and the surgical approach.
  11. Follow-Up Care: Candidates should be willing to follow post-implant placement care instructions and attend regular follow-up appointments to monitor the healing process and ensure the long-term success of the implants.

I'm a wuss when it comes to going to the dentist, but I've just had my smile spruced up by the hygienist, Sinead (hope I've spelt that right) and Sherron (hope I've got that right too) who both put me at ease with their banter and turned me out looking 10 years younger. Thanks Derrol

This is the best dental care I’ve ever received. I’m fearful patient but.my dentist (Sophie) has always found a way to calm my anxiety and never rushed me. I asked that if it was possible for them not to tell me what they were doing if possible legally (obviously they have to tell me some things) and i know it’s silly but she didn’t make me feel silly and agreed. I have disabilities too which make laying in the chair uncomfortable but we worked out a system of me lifting my hand if I need to move while she’s working on me. My fears have always been taken into consideration and I’ve never been made to feel bad because of them (childhood trauma yay). They give me distraction techniques and said they’d stop if it got too much (so far not needed to do that). Even after telling them I’d need to be referred to hospital because of one of my conditions for extraction procedures they were great and told me that fine. I’ll never go anywhere else now. Thank you Sophie for helping get over my fears without making me feel like a baby

I recently had to have root canal , Gillene and Sharon were great. They made sure I was ok all the way through each appointment, and put me at ease with what was a very long procedure. Gillene is very professional and good at what she does and Sharon is friendly and helps to try and keep your mind off whats happening.
