Am I a Candidate?
If you are missing one or more teeth, you are likely a candidate
for dental implants. Although the ideal candidate for a
dental implant is in good general and oral health, there are not
many contraindications to implant placement. Adequate
bone in your jaw is needed to support the implant, and the best
candidates have healthy gum tissues. Also, fully developed
bone is required to support an implant, which is why implants are
usually not used in patients that are still growing.
