Am I a Candidate for Dental Implants?
Most people are good candidates for implants, but we need to evaluate several factors:
- ✓ Good health: You don’t need high-quality health – most common conditions are manageable
- ✓ Adequate jawbone: If insufficient, bone grafting can build up the area
- ✓ Non-smoker or willing to quit: Smoking reduces implant success rates significantly
- ✓ Good oral hygiene: Implants require daily brushing and flossing like natural teeth
- ✓ Realistic expectations: Implants restore function and appearance but require commitment to care
Schedule a consultation with Dr. Reno to determine if you’re a candidate.
