Find out Whether You’re Suitable for Implants

Are you suitable for dental implants – let’s find out

Unfortunately, not every patient will be an immediate candidate and automatically ready to begin treatment.

Therefore, we offer free consultations and in-depth paid clinical assessments to determine whether your implants will be safe and successful.

Considering dental implants can last up to 30 years, these prior stages are crucial to ensure you have a good foundation to enjoy the long-term benefits.

We offer two types of consultations, depending where you are in your decision-making process…

Candidates ready to proceed – what they look like:

You’ll likely be a strong candidate for dental implant treatment if:

You have a good overall general health
You don’t smoke or are willing to stop before treatment
You have healthy gums and no active gum disease
Good volume of bone depth in the jaw where the implant is to be placed

When you won’t be suitable for dental implants

If you’ve been wearing dentures for years or ignored missing teeth for too long, the likelihood of being automatically ready to begin treatment decreases. Hearing that you’re not immediately suitable can be frustrating news, but it’s not uncommon.

While it may be annoying to undergo additional steps and delay your treatment by a little bit, it will be completely necessary for long-term stability and function.

Unlike candidate profile

Poor gum health
Receding gums
Lack of bone
Heavy smokers
Uncontrolled diabetes
Certain medical conditions
Patients with bruxism

Additional support required before getting implants if you’re not suitable

Just because you’re not an immediately suitable candidate now does not mean the dental implants are entirely off the table.

Instead, the implant dentist, after inspecting your oral condition, will likely recommend preparatory treatments first, which might include:

Bone grafts or sinus lifts for bone loss
Hygienist sessions or gum disease treatments for untreated gum disease
Treatment for bruxism or a nightguard
